An advertisement for the British Army


All this 'movie' was, was one long advertisement for the British army, putting it in nothing but a positive and highly idealised light. I guess they're not getting enough recruits so they pushed for this to be made.

The BBC?

Advertising for the British Army?

Boy, you boys have got the wrong left wing agenda driven compulsory waste of money non-government organisation. They wouldn't advertise the British Army unless they could show them bayonetting babies in Bashra.

This was more about the state of council estates and lack of options for the common people with only the option being either a drain on the welfare state or to join the army.

Try again my lovees

This was about someone realising potential in a way that she would not have felt possible (in the same way that someone showed Grounds that he was quite good at the writing lark. It is about what can happen if someone shows some faith in you..
