Strike Back on Sky One

Loving this. All action and story wrapped up in 2 parts unlike a lot of those US series.

One question: Do British Special Forces always use American weapons, uniforms and helicoptors?

I know the SAS favoured the M-16 way back as it was more reliable than the UK equivalent.

I'm still confused as to why the American helmets, or is that usual for SF?

Looking beyond the in accuracies... I quite enjoyed it...

And the American kit looks better than ours. Like the German uniforms looked better than ours in WW2.

I'm not sure on the Sheriff of Nottingham as the lead. He just doesn't quite have the charisma yet.

Sheriff was chief spook no1 whilst Porter was no3 after the tall blond fella (no2) got blown up.

Michael MacFayden was sheriff and 1st spook.

Ah! I thought you meant the new movie.
