SAS Rogue Heroes soundtrack: Every song featured in the drama
The series features an eclectic soundtrack from across the ages.
We're over halfway through Steven Knight's new series SAS Rogue Heroes, with two episodes left to air on BBC One (all of them are available on iPlayer for those who prefer to binge).
The drama aims to tell the true story of how the Special Air Service was formed, with a cast led by Connor Swindells, Jack O'Connell, Alife Allen, Dominic West and Sofia Boutella.
The similarities between the World War II drama – based on Ben MacIntyre's novel Rogue Heroes: The History of the SAS – and Knight's Peaky Blinders are undeniable, despite there being a couple of decades between Tommy Shelby and the unruly trio of soldiers at the heart of SAS Rogue Heroes.
Both shows are not afraid of violence, and both are fond of setting it to anachronistic music. SAS Rogue Heroes' soundtrack is just as epic as its predecessors, with the likes of AC/DC, Black Sabbath and The Clash all making an appearance alongside wartime tunes.
But who else is featured on the soundtrack and which songs play in which episode? Read on for a list of all the songs featured in SAS Rogue Heroes on BBC One.
