Royal Marines Commando School

Quick Fire (1x2)

Air date: Jul 21, 2014

The raw recruits take the next step on their training and there are challenging new lessons at every turn. If they can make it through the next three weeks, their families will get invited down to witness their progress and they'll get to go home for the first time since training began. As the training intensifies, 18-year-old Callum Bond tries to face up to a bewildering array of challenges in an effort to transform himself from boy to soldier. At the other end of the age spectrum, 31-year-old Magnus Frykman struggles to remain on top of training while missing his family, leaving his chance of a weekend at home in the balance. Out on exercise, running through their first rifle drills, the recruits begin to come to terms with what they may be required to do if they make it through training and get their green berets. And, as if things couldn't get any tougher, a familiar face, Corporal 'Froggy' Chauffour, is called back in to get them up to scratch. 'Definitely the worst I've had,' he says, 'they need a bit of a slap on the wrist, get back to work.'
