Based on British historian and bestselling author Ben Macintyre's book of the same name, the drama series will tell the story of how the British special forces unit, the SAS, was formed during World War II. The BBC says it would celebrate “the glory, action and camaraderie at the heart of this story,” and “delve into the psychology of the flawed, reckless but astonishingly brave group of maverick officers and men who formed the SAS in the darkest days of World War II.”
