Based on Andy McNab's memoir, BRAVO TWO ZERO is the story of the eight man SAS team who, during the Gulf War, were dropped behind enemy lines with 210 pounds strapped to their backs and orders to destroy Saddam's scud alley. Unfortunately, within 24 hours, the team's radios were dead and they found themselves pursued by the Iraqui Army. Sergeant McNab, who commanded the top-secret mission, was one of the five who made it back from behind Iraqui lines, and his story is one of the most heartbreaking and thrilling to come out of the Gulf War.

There is no agenda to Bravo Two Zero. Instead it seeks to present a soldier's story. And while there is another side to the story - patrol survivor Chris Ryan, who was separated from his comrades and fought his way across Iraq to the Syrian border, and freedom, also wrote an account - this is simply one man's version of events. McNab presents it as he saw it: a botched mission, eight desperate men, a series of bloody firefights and skirmishes, capture and torture and, finally, repatriation.
the extras are well worth a watch too, interview with McNab and a short about the actors training
