  1. Just seen this on BBC iPlayer and enjoyed it,though it was full of military mistakes as others here have pointed out.! I noticed a common one in a lot of British Army dramas is that,no one knows how to wear the beret.They all show the adjustment ribbons,as the French forces do,visible at the back,not hidden.The beret is not worn on the back of the head either!Worn one inch above the eye brow,cap badge over left eye and the beret is shrunk to fit.So easy to get this looking right but usually it looks wrong. Second point Officers suddenly start to wear red NCO's sashes with BD uniform in episode 4! Third point No 4 rifle is not carried at the slope arms as the sentries do.probably they would sling arms anyway I am sure there are many more but as a former ACF NCO from 1958 to 1963 these anomalies jumped out.
