This was a great programme in the early 2000's made to replicate 1950's national service to try mould no good criminals into something. Some of these guys went on to join the real army afterwards. They had officer and airborne versions too.
SAS who dares wins basically replaced this. I preferred bad lads army, as it actually helped these people with troubled pasts.
Douglas Williams The kid would of had his ass beat in any military, I imagine they can’t for legal reasons on TV.
@@aegg9915 Yeah they couldn't touch them in this sadly.
There was one lad who really turned himself around. Couldn't do the para jump because he was hurt sadly but he went on to join the rock apes I think.
Ronnie Sutton who?
@Shield Liger the one tried to get into MMA - without a martial art, its on youtube and its not very good
My favourite bit is when he says “the only reason I’m not doing anything is because of the cameras” little does he know that that the NCOs are think the same thing.
i wold have kicked the living shit out of him with smile on my face cams or not dirty smack head and me and my bros wher always told you fight one on one no weapons unless they have one. i no random comment four moths after yours but covid lol but not lol
@@ajjimbob When I was in Basic, the Drill Sargent's would make a person like this stand at the head of the room, and then make all of us do push-ups for hours and hours, while making that guy call us all sorts of bad shit, and not have to get punished like the rest of us. And then later that night, the whole platoon would beat the ever-living fuck out of that guy. Happened a few times when I was in, with people like that.
The kid would get his teeth knocked down his throat within seconds
You pull that shit at MCRD, you're gonna get stomped!
@@ajjimbob The real army would have sent him straight to jail, and the gobby idiot won't have the intelligence to accept the punishment all the way up to general court marshal when at that time would have faced the death penalty.
British slang is just the best, it’s so confusing and simple yet so insulting. Love it
I have a friend who is from the UK, it's always funny when he gets mad at something 😂
I'm English currently living in Australia. Everyone gets confused when I forget and start using slang.
@boomgoesblitzhound apples and pairs = stairs. Simple rhyme, confusing sentence
But Scottish is the best out of it tho

I joined up at the age of 15 and a half in 1961. Our drill instructors were national service and we had national service type training. At that time young offenders were given the choice of going to a youth prison (called Borstal) or joining the forces, provided their crimes were not too serious. The discipline at that time would be considered harsh by today's standards and not too different from this programme. The one big difference was, there was absolutely no physical contact from the drill instructors. However, for the first three months of initial training we had kit inspections every morning except Sunday and it was not uncommon to have your kit thrown out of a window if it was not up to standard. Being made to run around the parade square was usual for screwing up drill movements. usually with your rifle held above your head.. Church parades were mandatory every Sunday. During that first three months, we had to march everywhere, from the billet to the mess for meals, after meals to work and back etc.
I was one of those lads who were given the choice, by an old fashioned copper, of joining the forces or going to court. (I won't say what for, but, I was a bit of a wild child!). I chose the former and went through eighteen months of this kind of training. Believe it or not, those were some of the best days of my life and I have fond memories of it. Including the drill instructors who were hard but fair When I first joined, I was 5 foot 4 inches tall. Eighteen months later I was five foot ten and still growing, so, it must have done me some good.
Thanks to that old fashioned copper, I ended up serving for 25 years when I could have become a career criminal instead. I have a lot to thank him for. And, those national service drill instructors.
Did you shave without shaving creme/soap like they did in this video too?
@@lucasgrey9794 No. It was a while before I had to shave!
@@wasp6594 Shaving wasn't a requirement in bootcamp? Nice.
@@lucasgrey9794 it was for those who needed to shave. At the age of 15 I only had a bit of fluff!
@@wasp6594 I see. Did they shave against the grain?
For the Americans: this was a reality TV show where they re-created 1950s National Service boot camp even down to the food, uniforms, kit.
The show was as an experiment in 1) can a modern person adapt to 1950's army life and 2) should the British military bring back conscription or at least use it as an alternative to jail time for minor crimes like stealing and fighting?
They can recreate everything except the culture
@nasser d I somewhat did a quick history reading about British military, all the yelling was very common until the government wanted them to tone it down. Apparently, they keep the yelling in special forces training. Similar but not, very much like my dad when he was in the USMC in the late 60's, he talked about how "scrapping" between recruits to settle arguments was considered a norm where as now you have to report someone.
It was a great series, especially since it went from infantry to officer to para training
@@Sorbzski99 if they have to shout at you you probably shouldnt be in special forces
When him and his brother jump one person, it's okay. Then he gets pissy when "two" people jump him. Typical.
He was lucky the camera was there, kid really needs a good hiding. Something thugs like that respect is superior force.
Thats not what he said, he said he was on the phone box when three rudeboys (slang for black) took offence to the way he was looking at them , they came back to the phone box , he opened the door and hit one on the head with the phone, then his brother came out of the shop to help
Yeah, but they were being nice to him. He should be grateful he had those two who only wanted to break his spirit so they could rebuild it. Behind the camera (for the protection of the camera crew mostly) are actual Military Police, which in a couple of episodes you do see come in front of the camera to take action, had they got called in it wouldn't be just his spirit that got broken. Those made for some excellent episodes!
Real world glass house
@@johnsmith-wx5fb Since when does rudeboy only mean black people? That's new to me.
‘Poofter’ or just ‘poof’ in Brit slang is like calling someone a fag, queer, fairy, etc. and was very commonly heard in the British armed forces school I went to in (then) West Germany in the 70s - early 80s.
Always enjoy your videos, Jamesons Travels, keep ‘em coming!
In 1989 I was a 21 year old recruit in the Australian Army. The section was lined up and our rough tough section commander was addressing us. He was Tattooed from A/hole to breakfast and this is in the days when Tattoo's were not a fashion accessory. He said in a style similar to these two in the show, "In this section there is at least one thief......and there is at least one Poof". At which point one of the section recruits turned up late having been on some errand. "Where the eff have you been!" He bellowed. "Well I....." "Shutup! Are you a thief?" He says to the late recruit"No" say the recruit. "Are you a Poof?" "Yes" says the recruit with a smile. Even the Corporal cracked up.
@Gungshi
- I think the term has been carried to all the Brit colonies. We had the same terminology/spelling late 80's in New Zealand. Seems odd to look back at the discrimination I lived amongst and never batted an eye-lid. Was normal jargon to use back then
@@ctakitimu Discrimination my ass
@@Fredjo umm ok
I am from Scotland and we would say Horses Hoof
One scene on this show sticks in my mind. One of the recruits had a birthday, so the others made him a cake and sang "Happy Birthday". I forget: maybe the corporals even joined in. The guy - the "bad lad" - was literally in tears: "this is the first time anyone has made me a cake and sung me 'happy birthday'". Talk about a broken soul.
It's actually sad. A lot of these guys who are young offenders/petty criminals have had no kind of parental love as children. Some don't even have basic life skills, like knowing how to use a knife and fork. 'Slung up' rather than 'brought up' is the phrase that comes to mind.
The patience of those Corporals is commendable.
no patience like that in reality! people like him always meet their match in the forces.
Only because the cameras are there,not in real life.
nah its fucking pathetic is what it is
@Blob B ah that makes sense
real life a lot of em with be at the dentist
I loved the ending, "why do you wanna stay?" "it's quite good here Corporal!"
😂🤣😅
Haha yeah I liked that bit
That lad with that response will go far👍
Some joined up afterwards. One of them became a friend of mine. Turns out he had a heart of gold and a good head on his shoulders. He just needed a bit of direction. His life story was quite something. He recently lost his life sadly.
And then there is Copral Murray. Scary bloke...
Was that the geordie lad?
Balti Pie Scottish
What's your service number
That's the case with most of them apart from the odd 1 like that kid bragging about him and his brother jumping on that guy then pretty much cries when 2 people are holding him 😂
Notice how at 7:49 cpl murray sticks his head down and towards the lad. He’s instinctively protecting himself from a sly head butt. He knows exactly what he’s doing there as he’s probably been in a fair few scraps before
Also he does not square off but grabs him from the side. It's very difficult to strike someone standing close off your shoulder like that. The kid can't even make the attempt because the corporal has his left arm, which he would strike with, controlled. So can't punch, can't head butt, can't kick.
Murray would have mopped the floor with that guy seven ways of Sunday, being a RSM in the Para's he's seen his share of fights for sure
@@John-kr7iz Yea that dudes tough as nails, you can tell, haha
@@SlipperyBream oh yeah for sure!
If you've been brought up in Glasgow, you'll have been in scraps. Full stop.
You should watch all these. This is one of the great classic British TV shows. Back in the 00s. Everything after 2015 has gone shit and politically correct.
So true nothing
on tv nowadays
@@nathanwhittaker3979 Its since Twitter became popular. Its allowed all the weirdo's to get together in one place.
True
Yeah this show was great, especially the officers.
Daniel Whittaker that’s creepy we got same last name 😂
"you couldn't even hold me"
it takes 3 men to hold you down
but it only takes half a man to put you down
"that's cause he's only holding" 😂
I went to school with a lad who went on this show. Didn't know him very well, but he was going through a tough patch. He ended up joining the army I think so he turned it around - good on him
what was his name?
@@addieloveswheelies5672 Justin. Don't remember his last name... Again, didn't know him very well. He was from Stockport and was probably on the show around 2007-2010 if memory serves
@@otpfishing968 This show stopped in 2006, maybe it was the last season?
It's worth noting that some of these lads *did* actually sign up for real once the show was over......
As an American who is a fan of the "Bad Lads" series, I've often wondered what a U.S. marine thought of it. Thanks for posting!
please do another one of these. really enjoyed it!
I really hope he does. And i bet he gets alot out of watching these to. If anything the grasp of our slang is something else 😆. Definitely subbed, and hope he shows more of the slight differences in terminology and cultural differences. But in the military its mostly same same, just different ways of doing thing's that give the same results.
Same! Please please please do another one
This whole show is a good analogy for life. The people that really care about you don't tell you you're 'okay as you are' they aren't 'kind' to you either. They make you straighten up and be the best you can be, that's what a real friend does.
This is a great series, there are two other versions I have seen, Officer Training and Paratroop Training. Can I also say, the Brits a way better at insulting folk, most creative use of language ever.
In total there was 4 series, the first wasn't about Bad Lads, it was normal teens at the time and was more about living life as a fifties soldier, this is the second season and it the most famous as it was a straight up ratings winning nightmare, 3 and 4 where as you said, same concept but with a different angle, the last had a prize. Complete the training and past the tests they actually went parachuting
It's what we do best.
Man that corporal seems like the nicest man in the world
When getting beasted, i was always the one who could not help but laugh, you have to have 'stand-up comedian' level humor to be training staff😂 The good ones find a way to break recruits like me, and they soon wiped the smirk off my face, i can tell you😅
I'm a new subscriber... I really appreciate that fact that you say how much you care about your subs... Your the first to ever do that... I love your content... I respect that you are PROFFESSIONAL... You don't have to swear and it shows how intelligent you are... I don't get offended... I deal with these guys all day... So just mad respect for you .. Thank you for your SERVICE
Thanks. Withour viewers there is no channel. Subscribers matter most. If they don't watch things go bad. Thanks for the sub.
Thank you
That kid spent years on Facebook arguing and trying to get into fights with people who called him pathetic on this show. From what I've seen he still lives in a council flat, breaking the law on the regular and all that's changed is his age.
Can you please give me a name
@@coreyg670 I think he means Luke Brown. I haven't seen anything too recent, but he was arguing with a lot of people of Facebook. I'd like to see an update myself.
@@coreyg670 Luke Brown, look him on Facebook. Usually you'll find someone comment on his profile about this show and it'll all kick off. Try it yourself if you want lol.
Bantabury any idea of what his profile picture is?
So he's done well then 🤣
This was on when I was a lad I remember it as clear as day. Wow. Memories. Tough men they was look at all the shit they where taking. Cheers for uploading this!
bad lads army what a show. needs bringing back
TheSoftCop all the bad lads that join it would dropout in the first day, I mean these days “bad lads” think that school is hard so they dropout of that 😂
@@jefffranklin4894 they would never have survived actual training aha
That kid being a big man, trying not to cry.
:48 I died in laughter "get on the bed and lay down" his raspby voice is funny as hell
"It's quite good here Corporal" had me in stitches
4:25 “no, no, no, look watch a professional” gold!
I remember when this show first aired on TV in June 2002. I was 15 at the time and a member of my local Army Cadet Force. A few friends and I used to have a good laugh when we discussed this show during the Army Cadet evenings and in high school. Oh yes those were the days.
I REMEMBER WATCHING BAD LADS ARMY WHEN I WAS ABOUT 15 YEARS OLD, NOW IM WATCHING A REACTION VID WHEN IM 31 LOL. THANKS JAMESONS TRAVELS
When I served: If a recruit reacted that way; that's insubordination. = Dark and wet room, little food and cold water by a hose every three hours; the longest necessary. (Love it).
The reality is in 1960s british army they'd have squared his jaw away the first time he gobbed off
I wouldn't last there. I'd be pissing myself from laughter. They're so creative with their insults it's gotten funny. I'm really bad at holding my laugh and cried it out watching this video. Can't imagine hearing that all in real life
My jaw dropped at this boy and his behavior. It feels like the instructor was so polite and self contained. I don't think the '' recruit '' knew what kind of an ass whoop he could have got, and damn he would deserve.
Love the diversity of the forces around the world on this show. Allot of the time US commentators will only commentate on their own guys. This is refreshing. Hats off.
Thanks Jamesons, I was the one who made a request, I'm sure this is season 1 or 2, season 3 and 4 is an attempt to reform criminals 😂
You asked and received. I try to do video that people want to watch. Fighting through copyright claims make it tough. These guys were fair so far.
@@JamesonsTravels I enjoy the way you do these reviews, When you sparked the cigar on the Q&A it made me like yourself even more! Its brilliant seeing things from your perspective! (Many thanks from Scotland!)
@@mrbeckett3975 this was season two, the actual Bad Lads one, the others were more about an experiemnt, this was the one that is the most famous as they were all nightmares
It's the first season I remeber watching this back in the day .
One with Luke brown the one mouthing off all the time was season 1
That particular series was the best series of any of the bad lads army series. It was great to watch
"poster" he said Puffter, it means gay haha I do love British slang.
Poofder is slang for gay which also comes from powder puff. There are other terms like Ginger, meaning Ginger Beer. Cockney rhyming slang for queer. There are other terms which are unprintable.
@@wasp6594 funnily enough, the common american term "fag" isn't used that often in england, unless referring to cigarettes XD
B.T.W. IT'S "POOFTER"
This programme was on in the UK when I was 14. There hasn't been a show as satisfying to watch. Make sure to watch the full series, it's genuinely nice watching these lads turn it around.
"it's BAD, LADS, ARMY!!" lol :)
Leads The Fallen *boot stamps on ground* “OY!”
This was a great program. What I loved was that the Corporals were proper paternalistic leaders. You knew immediately who was in charge. But you could also tell they had genuine care for the young men who were on the program.
I used to binge watch this show a few years ago. Now I kinda feel like doing it again haha
It's on UA-cam mate
Please do the rest of this series, it has a lot of great content
Bad lad army provo Sargent Tim Weston he’s the man you want to watch!! Quality channel 🏴👍🏻🇺🇸
100%
His beastings are BRUTAL. Its awesome check out the one he calls crucifixion.
Tim is a lorry driver these days for tesco DC as an agency driver. Top bloke. 👍
@@Andy-walkaboutnuttythat's awesome to hear he helped a lot of the guys the corporals didn't know what to do with. Some guys just need a good beat down.
@@Andy-walkaboutnutty I'd like to see his reaction when they told him he couldnt use their toilets when the outbreak arrived lol.
Bad Lads Army was set up as a choice for these lads. Do the course, or go to jail. I joined up in ‘87. I remember my first room inspection. Literally everything in the room, except for us recruits went out of the window. They were the days. I really miss it.
Kid brags about him and his brother taking on one guy...
Gets upset when two jump on him...
"You've been in the army for 22 years and couldn't hold me-" I spat my tea out when I heard him presume that they weren't kicking shit out of him because they couldn't.
Doesn't realise the 2nd Corporal is protecting him from the 1st Corporal.
@@T0mat0S0up Yeah, Corporal Murray was a bloody Para SgtMaj. He could have ripped that guy's head off with his bare hands or close enough
Thank you for these videos you never truly understand what happens in the military. I'm not talking about the t.v show but the way you explain everything and your passion good or bad is inspiring keep it up and thank you for all that you've done outside the videos and directly to us. Quinn from Canada.
Loved this show in New Zealand, wish they would bring it back.
So glad you put this up, I remember watching this back in the day. Brings back some good and bad memories.
The great thing about this show is that it turns these young lads around, Some even enlist afterwards.
I love the series. Great instructors. I hope the kids got helped from it.
@@JamesonsTravels I served in the Australian Army, Infantry 6 years. Went through recruit training back in '88 before the world went PC.
@@jeffveraart2695 sorry your training still doesnt match the training from x years before. history has proven that all millitary training has changed and gotten easier (quite a few exceptions of course) over the proceeding years , thats not saying it wasn't hard cause it was
@@archangel6676 Did you get offended?
@@jeffveraart2695 Nope, sorry if you think that, but then thats your malfunction not mine, seeing as how I was pointing out a simple fact, obviously you didn't read the whole only a couple of lines of it and i would suggest you read the whole thing again. and now you sound like the butthurt one because you didn't read the whole thing.
As you most likely know Bad Lads' Army was a reality game series on ITV in the UK . Think Survivor but in a boot camp setting . Big emphasis on getting these kids to realize people depend on them and that they as individuals matter. The training regimen is impressive as it really turned some these fellows around. While personnel are either retired or active duty it seems the series is being done in cooperation with the British military but as part of it.-though at graduation there is a recruiting station set up and several recruits do sign up. The staff do seen genuinely concerned about their charges' success
Can you do a video of your perspective on the recent deployment of National Guard and military during the unrest?
I will. Likely wait until this settles down. Maybe not. I am sure UA-cam will kill the video but I will take a look around for some good stuff.,
I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but the 2 Corporals were in fact the rank of Warrant Officers class 2 (only 1 rank down from the highest non-commissioned rank in the British Army). Nauyokas is rumoured to be ex SAS after initially joining as A Royal Engineer, whilst Murray is ex Parachute Regiment. This was an excellent series reflecting life as a conscripted soldier in the 1950's - 1960's.
The first series was simply 'Lads Army' - an experiment to see if modern youth had what it takes to go through basic training in 1950s National Service. The lads basically buckled down and showed that they did.
So later series were all 'Bad Lads Army' where instead they used youth offenders and petty criminals, as that way they'd get a lot more drama. What is notable of course is that out of all those taking part the series focuses on just a few of the participants - the right idiots. Lots of drama. Even when all the participants were wrong 'uns most still got on with it and passed out, but they didn't make for good teve.
All the NCOs were former SNCOs, so that the Training Corporals were actually all former Sergeant Majors. What is interesting is that if you look around you'll find a number of stories about what happened to them since with 'Cpl' Nauyokas still in touch with many of them - invited to their later weddings and all sorts!
Some were mostly ex PARA regiment. Corporal Murray and Nauyokas were ex PARA. Sergeant Tim Weston was a former PARA as well. Sergeant Sullivan was in the intelligence. I can’t remember the other lot.
@@britishrailclass Nauyokas was not a para, he was in the RLC.
Was looking forward to meeting Nooky at a military re-enactment that was supposed to be on last month in Kent
The worst was that lad that was stealing and shit then even lied that someone stole his money to try and get one over and scam.
When he got called out he started calling the actual Army captain a "posh twat" it was insane, the army captain went red in the face. It was insane, it was a huge furore and he was ejected and even his fellow "bad lads" were ashamed of how he acted, it was interesting because it showed even with their upbringing 9/10 of the guys had decent hearts, they weren't of his breed and they truly did not tolerate how he acted.
Ex Military myself, British and loved Bad Lads Army back when it was on T.V.
Just discovered your channel with this video, loved it mate, spot on!
Was on the year before I signed up this, used to think it was class.
Be good to see his thoughts on the provo off the show, he was the best part lol
They turned that old base in to a military hospital. It was just along from where I was based in Portsmouth.
We had a guy in training with us (Junior Leaders Regiment Royal Artillery 1989) who said his "nickname" was Rambo, he was a big lad. But on our first room inspection, where EVERYTHING got thrown and there was a pile of kit in the middle of the room, he lost the plot and tried to cut his wrists with an electric razor 😂😂😂
Kid:
"You wearing the thingie are 20 years of age and can barely hold me"
The officer:
easily holds him with one arm.
"The officer" was a Para SgtMaj veteran, so yeah that kid could have been turned into mush if he wanted
Back when TV was decent to watch!
9:00 22 years in the thingy. By thingy he meant British army. Good night sweet princess. Both of these guys showed a significant amount of self control.
Nookie Nauyokis was my SSM in Germany.
You'll be glad to hear that he really was like that @jamesonstravels
Steve Walsh really

2cs regt RLC in Gutersloh
After this show he joined the RAF as a SGT instructing at Cranwell
Only people with anger issues will understand what this lad is going through. He is tearing himself apart inside and doesn't know weather to throw a punch or curl into a ball.
"Why do you want to stay here?"
"Because I have a point to prove Corporal"
They probably wouldn't have minded the honesty there.
Corporal has such a gruff battle hardened voice. What a badass
Looking at the guy disrespecting the staff made me think.
The most useful lessons I've received in my life were when someone yelled at me, scolded me, slapped me for something I did wrong.
If people don't care about you, they will simply ignore you. If they DO care, they will go out of their ways to help you, and that includes kicking you until you learn.
I remember the first one . After their pass out parade there was some Army recruiting trailers parked nearby & A few of them did enlist in the British Army .
"YOU! You look like Brad Pitt!"
"Ummm...sorry, Corporal?"
Loved your comments on this video better then any other video.
I guess you have a heart for the old british NCO's. Or the way they handled the recruits I mean.
Sgt Rae is another highlight of that show. All four seasons are huge fun.
Unfortunately Sgt Rae fell to COVID :-(
Yup, some time back in the autumn, as I recall. A great pity.
2:27 I was the person who compiled that particular one with "Nookey" and it is interesting that he did not want Burkes who turned out to be one of his sections best soldiers.
ive worked with one of the PT instructors from this show and he's a really wholesome guy but that wasn't his role in the show
I've stayed at the camp. They had us march in but as soon as the camp fully came into view one of the lads started to whistle the theme tune from The Great Escape, then somebody else started to join in, then someone else, and so on, until we were all whistling it. The DS were laughing too much to be able to stop us. The camp OC wasn't to best pleased mind lol
Probably a hot head that fights his issues out. Trying to command respect without actually earning it.
I was in juvenile hall for most of my youth. Had a bunch of these mfs in there, most didn’t end up anywhere but prison or in the same town doing the same shit. losers
This kid has a brother when there together ruthless so they separated them all ways kicking off
When you cowardly attack a civ and think you can take on 2 ranked soldiers 😂
Hahaha your commentary was great really cheered me up during lockdown please do another!
Its puff/Puffter. So said with a U, not an O. It slang for gay. Until about 10 years ago, people still used to heavily use words like this. See the Inbetweeners TV series as an example.
It is 'Poofter',not Pufffter ..... You might think it said like that due to accent. It's slang for Homosexual in many Commonwealth Nations (UK,Australia,New Zealand,etc).Google it if you don't believe.
@@BXBZ88Its said as puff. Like the guy on this show
@@stretfordender11 Dude, I'm Australian..... It is a part of the slang we grew up on before PC times. Type this into UA-cam search "rule one no poofters" and watch how Monty Python did it..
Hell, Go put the word by itself into UA-cam Search Bar and watch other videos.
@@BXBZ88 I live in England. You know the place where English comes from?? People say Puff. Just like in English you say book like buck.
@@stretfordender11 Look up both in the Dictionary (not Urban) ,Which one is there and which one isn't.
Luke Brown was one of a set of twins who joined the program, his twin brother left the show early and mouthy Brown was put into prison an numerous occasions, up in front of the boss a couple of times then was eventually kicked out. His final humiliation was the guards making him strip down to his boxer shorts at the gate then marched beyond the the gates to his freedom.
It might seem cruel or harsh but it's what they do to make you strong mentally and physically.
needs to be brought back
@@GWRProductions-kg9pt definitely.
the kid in the striped jumper is still in prison he tried to murder his pregnant girlfriend she described him as a monster. and I hope he never gets out
Jimmy Stewart holy shit do you have a link to the story
I'm fairly sure if this was really in the 50's and wasn't a TV show that boy would have gotten beaten up.
There are ways of dealing with people like that.
Yep, on TV land you can't hit people, but refusing to soldier would be a case of 28 days in the jail, stripped of the queens uniform because it's not yours, no bed as well I think and fed bread and water. If you follow a request/order then officially you are soldiering and the 28 days start again. Cold, sleep deprived, poor food, boredom, hatred from others, disgraced. It's just not worth it.. I don't think many would make it,
Would recommend watching the series. They do care about the lads in the end. Some end up walking out thinking they are hard guys but some did go threw a transformation
Used to love this show!
guys asked me to do it. i got a kick out of it. hard to find decent clips and then have to fight with the owners for fair use but they were fair in the end.
@@JamesonsTravels I hope to see some more soon keep up the good work been watching you all week.
They are saying ' poofter ' , it means homosexual. I remember watching this on T.V. a few years back. The end episode when they paraded in front of their family's, man , I was emotionally proud of them. You need to watch it Bro.
if you ever want to do another reaction to bad lads army you should check out Provo sergeant Tim Weston.
I'm SO glad you're watching this. This is probably one of my favorite show's out there involving military stuff.
I just want you to know, I've gotten to intimately speak with some of the lads who participated on this show, both Lads Army and Bad Lads Army they pro ported to me that no aspect of the show is staged in any way shape or form, the only thing there are the Cameras and alot of off Camera antics were worse. The corporals were way worst to them than they appear in the show. I really recommend with this in mind you give the show a watch as a veteran like myself it will bring back memories considering the way some of the lads respond to situations. You'll get to see EVERY person you experienced in basic training and the military in general. Eeven if you don't make videos about it, you won't regret it.
As a follow up to your question, the dirt bag you're talking about is Luke Brown. He's actually an MMA fighter now.
I was told Luke Brown went in the ring once, got his lights punched out and never went in again.
Fuckin ell mate, I remember this! Bloody nostalgia.
I used to love watching these there all on UA-cam I believe. A lot of it's suger coated, it was basically a social experiment to see how youth of today would match up in a national service (draft/conscription) 50s era..my dad was in the British army in the early 70s and the stories he used talk about during basic training sounded tough and funny. They were quite heavy handed back in those days.
The short answer is (with season 1, since they were just a bunch of ordinary kids) yes, they could.
I actually loved Bads Lads Army and Lads Army before that. It was fantastic.
love your commentary , full respect sir .
I Remember This Show, Great Fun.
Bad Lads Army is my favourite reality show ever, there should have been more than four series! And having seen every episode thousands of times, when he said strike one at 5:36 I was thinking "he ain't seen nothing yet!"😁😁😁
Wow, if I mouthed off at my Drill Sergeant like that at Benning, I would be in the ER.
The very end was gold.
I used to watch these they are well funny
My brother platoon (i was in a female platoon)had their beds thrown out the window.
I'm having flashbacks of Battery Sargent Major Williams
Oh dear how sad nevermind 😂
Red Orchestra you enjoying your tea gunner?
"Mister La-De-Dah Gunner Graham". Not many people will get your reference, I think.
Lovely boys
