Considerations of national security permitting, there is a fascinating series to be made about the selection procedures and training of the Special Air Service, but SAS: Are You Tough Enough is not it. This is basically Big Brother joins the army, in which 29 civilians are subjected to a dramatically reduced version of the SAS induction process (10 days instead of six months).
