Rogue Heroes on SBS – From the creators of Peaky Blinders, Rogue Heroes is a dramatised account of how the world’s greatest Special Forces unit, the SAS, was formed under extraordinary circumstances in the darkest days of WWII.
The series centres on David Stirling, an eccentric young officer, who is hospitalised after a training exercise gone wrong. Convinced that traditional commando units do not work, Stirling creates a radical plan that flies in the face of all accepted rules of modern warfare.
Portraying David Stirling is actor Connor Swindells, best known for his role as Adam Groff in Sex Education and for drama series Vigil. He will be joined by Skins actor Jack O’Connell as Paddy Mayne, Game of Thrones’ Alfie Allen as Jock Lewes, The Wire’s Dominic West as Lieutenant Colonel Wrangel Clarke and Atomic Blonde star Sofia Boutella as Eve.
Series One, Episode Three:
After a period of throwing themselves into the sand from scaffold towers and training in the blistering desert heat, the newly recruited members of the SAS are preparing to embark on their first ever operation to parachute into the desert.
