No need for it but its out there so just have to accept it really.
Sorry Phil
But for the first time on this forum, I must disagree with you. We do not have to accept it, I can swear and curse with the best of them, but I found the overuse of the f word in this programme quite depressing.

In fact, after the programme, I texted a good friend of mine who is still serving and asked if this was normal practise these days. His reply was that 'certain instructors' are more abusive to the woman recruits than they ever would be to male recruits!
Whatever your views on women in the military, I found that comment quite disturbing.
