The new season continues to tell the true story of the Special Air Service's missions during World War II, with the actions having switched from Cairo to Italy.

The action is just as explosive this time around, while this new season's soundtrack is just as epic as its predecessors. The likes of AC/DC, The Fall and The Clash all make an appearance, alongside wartime tunes, as was the case in season 1.
