This was my battalion, 5 Scots the Argyll and sutherland highlanders. Ross kemp is a legend he has massive support for our/all troops. This was 2008 tour.
Major Nick Calder is a legend and highly respected from the junior soldier through all ranks. Some good footage of wee Pollock ginger Hammy and Andy (medic) all great guys.
How do you guys maneuver with stones like that ?
Haggis and Irn-bru🤷♂️
On a serious note, not sure if you served but when you are given a task by the hierarchy then it needs to be done to the best of your ability because if not your not only putting your safety/life at risk but the men/woman who choose to stand with you. Good banter and moral when you are at your lowest you can always rely on your battle buddie to come out with some sarcastic funny comment that just gets you in the gut and gets you going again.
@@gordonfinnigan1128 you are all heroes x
Delta coy👌🏼
@@gordonfinnigan1128 From me & my family, thank you for your service
Ross Kemps got serious balls with the things he has been and done numerous times. However the cameraman does it all without praise, but we all know the cameraman always survives
Cameramen and women are indestructible as can be seen by how many of them get run over by tanks and then keep filming. :D
He does indeed. Have you seen when he gets held up by some gang in an African country and he just grabs the gun and is giving it "you're not going to shoot me. You gonna shoot me? No you're not"
Yet he use to get knocked about by his wife/girlfriend.
@@jaceelliott9659 which says more about the complicated nature of domestic abuse than ross kemp
@@95Grumple It sure does, it is more about being controlled mentally, than being knocked about. I haven't spoke to my brother in law for over 2 years. As he has total control over her, vile excuse of a man.
Ross kemp is a legend been to afghan with Royal Marines and British army and us army multiple of times
He’s also the same dude who looked some guerrillas in the face as they aimed a shotgun at him and basically said “no balls you won’t”
ruclips.net/video/wOMxEdH2yK4/видео.html
He's also a mitchell brother, never forget. And he definitely wouldn't fuck with vinnie Jones 🤣
He was in the Super Army Soldiers unit as well....
@@mr.bombastic413 YOU GONNA SHOOT ME? NO ONES GONNA FACKING KILL ME. All while high on drugs he was forced to take 😂
Is he the guy who’s ex wife, gave him a good kicking, or was that his TV brother ?
he’s an absolute legend. does all of this just to showcase to the world the horrors that do surface, knowing it’s actually a threat to his life
Yeah but Henno Garvie is the best man in the best regiment in the world and even gunned down Capt Ian Mcckelwayne for having an extra marital affair with one of his sgts, lol for the benefit of our American pals Ross Kemp is also an esteemed actor.
The Ross Kemp in Afghanistan episodes are awesome.
Agreed he doesn't piss about, he's straight in there, and all the soldiers seem to love it, like he's one of the team. "C'mon Ross, move move move..!!"..excellent series..🍀🍀
I joined the army off the back of them. Joined LANCS, did 3 tours and slapped some Taliban about
@@discobriscoe5880 Thank you for what you did for our country. Under equipt, under manned, yet always in our minds, thank you all.
The man is a legend! My brother was in Afghan at the same time as Ross and he met and spoke to him, he wasn't with the Unit Ross was embedded with though. But he said he was a really cool guy and wanted to show the true british fight of the war.
Said countries should do a better job of ousting terrorists 🤷♂️
@@kieranf3511 they create them

Great to see your perspective on this. Also, as a Yorkshireman, love your Yorkshire tea poster in the background 😆

This comment reminded me to get off my ass and make a cup of Yorkshire Tea
Much respect to Ross, he’s put himself in some hairy situations in his career, you should react to more of his stuff, military and civilian are bloody good
This footage, from start to finish, perfectly shows the understated but totally professional standards of the British military. It is made all the more authentic by Ross Kemp and his cameraman’s incredible footage from the very front of a proper fire fight. The steely leadership from the Boss and the reactions of the troops to one of their buddies being hit was top class. The reaction of the wounded soldier to being hit was unflappable professionalism at its best. No whooping and hollering, no high fives, just “ it is what it is “, let’s crack on !
Then to cap it off , a combat medic who is clearly at the top of his game. He is the epitome of what it is to be a British soldier. Professional, adept and totally in charge of his skill set. You sir , are a credit to your unit, your country but especially to your oppos. Respect from a former Royal Marine 🙏🏻
Most british response by the co ever. In enemy territory, gets bad news, sums up the situation. Then as calm as u like "in fact tell them to fuck off". followed by the radio man basically requesting permission to relay the statement verbatim so he didnt get in trouble without pissing his co off.
" Do you want me to say it in those exact words sir"? Lol 😭😂😂
The lad on the coms was our platoon sergeant when I was serving (Brucy). Incredible soldier. Good sense of humour too 😂
@@stephenrichardson8351
As in Brucy bonus? Lol
@@jaymac7203 Na more like Bruce Willis 🤷🏻♂️😂😂
The best one I ever seen of Ross Kemp was when he went to the front line with the Kurdistan army against ISIS. An ISIS sniper saw that a reporter was there and pinned him down. Ross calmly narrated the scene, while lying flat on the ground, to his cameraman while you could see bullets slamming into the wall above him! RESPECT!
Watch Big Phil reporting for Sky News with the Kurds. He was itching to get some trigger time.
This would be before 2009, that`s when the British Military switched to the Multicam uniforms and upgraded the furniture on the SA80 weapon system, this would be around 07ish...
@RiggityRiggityWrecktSonn Yes, this I know as I was in when all the changes happened...NOTHING happens quickly or in an efficient manner in the British Military...it all happens at an agonizingly slow pace...we got word in 07 that new kit was coming and didn`t see the first piece until 09...then don`t get me started on the CBRN training during my phase 1 training in 2004 where the kit they issued was dated 1982...I also remember visiting a TA unit in 2011 and helped them to fit the new yank imported furniture to all the rifles in their armory, that was 2011 when i`d been using it since mid 2009...
Also they changed to the MK7 helmet around 09 as well... and multicam started making it's rounds in 2010
was 5 Scots in '08
@@EscanV I got my first bit in 09, it was a Goretex Waterproof...the rest came later...
I remember when this first aired in early 09 so guessing it's filmed in 08
Really enjoyed this one Theo and would definitely like to see more, Ross is one of the few people that the British army holds in high respects because he's earned it by putting himself in the danger zone with other serving soldiers.
Ross Kemp is the real deal 👌
He`s done so many good shows!
The one he did on prisons is also really good!
Another really great British Series that came out around 2011 is called "Our War", that`s well worth a watch!
Our war is one of the best out there 👍
100%
I swear taunting the enemy is a very British thing to do.
Remember that terrorist in London with a knife and someone shouted "You aint no Muslim bruv".
@@benamos2878 how belittling it must be to think you're a hard man terrorist, then you get charged by Joe bloggs with a narwhal tusk 😂
@@SonOfSalop I'm surprised the government haven't banned narwhal tusks by now.
@@benamos2878 wouldn't want to offend the people who identify as narwhals now would we. Remember we need 20,000 new police officers because of the rise of people saying nasty things on the internet

I'm really surprised that they didn't start brewing up before setting up the loud speakers.
Set up a compound, drink a brew and then set up the speaker. Yeah always have a brew ready first, British Army procedures mate lol
Standard sops mate 😆
This showed up randomly on my feed and it reminded me of when I was in the Royal Navy, we took Ross on a patrol for anti piracy around the horn of Africa and he was genuinely willing to get stuck into everything and had a great understanding of what the regional conflict was. He's He's fantastic journalist and a genuinely awesome guy. My respect for Ross went through the roof after that.
Absolute respect for Ross Kemp and his crew attaching to the lads / lasses on the ground in a risky operation. Also, to the soldiers and officers on the ground for making space for Ross and the crew to join them, which for them must be an additional ball the juggle. I'm so impressed and grateful for the work of our soldiers in any and all situations when I watch these things. Graham W
Hi Theo. Ross Kemp is actually "a big girl's blouse" (his words, not mine) as he came to note as an actor playing an ex-army type in a London-based soap opera called EastEnders, and then the lead in Ultimate Force, a drama about the SAS, sometimes called Ultimate Farce by critics! I think he's done his best work in his documentary series, where he's basically a journalist. It trades on his screen rep as a 'tough guy' but it's actually the most honest thing he's done because journalists are very vulnerable in these situations.
I think this video was shot in 2008 with Delta Company, the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders (5 SCOTS), the 5th Battalion of the Royal Regiment of Scotland, which sounds like a horrible amalgamation has occurred and was obviously a seperate Regiment back in the day.
I seen him in a Talk Show were he says he acts Ard and is crapping himself on every show with shooting involved, but he hides it well as actors do lol
@@eanjamesmogg9488 - yeah, I'm not sure where I heard his "I'm just a big girl's blouse" remark, but I have Ultimate Force on DVD, so it might be an interview on one of the discs. I think the whole idea of him doing these documentaries was based on his on-screen image. I give him credit for not crapping out and saying "no way". I liked the first episode of Ultimate Force when the TV set in the CQB 'Killing House' at Hereford was shot out by someone in the Troop because it was playing EastEnders! Nice touch.
Ultimate force was OK while Chris Ryan (the one that got away)was still advising but it just got very very silly .
@@Cheezsoup - I think that's quite true. Can't remember if he left because it was getting silly or it got silly because he left, but there's definitely a connection. I did enjoy the one with the blue-on-blue shootout with French commandos on the trawler suspected of carrying arms. Hard to know if such a monumental screw-up like that could ever happen... until it does!
@@davemac1197 My memory is that it got cancelled mid season and there are a few unshowed episodes due to current events at the time.
This was my time. You should check out the rest of his stuff. He's one of very few journos to have captured what it was really like. The humour and vulnerability. He spent time with the Royal Matines and US Marines.
For me, it really highlights how young soldiers are. In movies, the actors are alway 30+.
those Mastiff's dam i miss my job. Shout out to 2nd battalion riffles miss you guys sat here with my one leg reminiscing are days in afgan GET SOME!!! Shout out to all vets world wide you did your time much love guys and girls
Watch the other parts! I’m pretty sure at one point they had to fix bayonets, In the ambush video. It’s very interesting.
I was gonna say he needs to find that part. It's a really harrowing moment when the get the order to fix bayonets
This series is incredible! I’ve watched it countless times and I’d love to see more reactions from you!
This guy nearly died twice in Afghanistan and also belittled a militant while being held at gunpoint
Yes, although the belittlement was a joke to see how he would cope.
@@henry8239 he didn't know that though
He actually sassed an african militia member who pointed a gun at him on camera in another series though, he points the gun at him then ross pushes the barrel away an goes 'What? you gonna shoot me? Your not going to shoot me.' He's got mega balls.
He's a legend not a journalist.
Edit: great review I've subbed.
Thanks!
Really hope all these guys made it home safely to their families respect and thanks to anyone who served 👍👍🇦🇺
Brilliant video and saying I respect these soldiers and yourself is an understatement!! Plus loving the Yorkshire Tea sign. Cheer's 🇬🇧
More reactions. This guy is a legend, same can be said for the cameraman and director. o7
Everyone talking about ross kemp but the camera man with heavy equipment respect
That ricochet @15:10 tho.. can see it ping the wall in front of his face.
Watched this years ago.... easily one of the best documentary series on youtube in regards to the infantrymen
Throughout the years, the Scots have been amongst the toughest and bravest in the British armed forces. Proud to call them my brothers in arms (from the UK).
He first went to Afghanistan with the 1 Royal Anglian Regiment from Essex (his father's old regiment) in the series "Ross Kemp in Afghanistan", in summer 2007.
This footage is from the follow-up series "Ross Kemp: Return to Afghanistan", with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders battalion in 2008.
I always found the first season from 2007 much more intense, just pure gunfire, javelin and air-strikes and it is amazing to watch as Ross and the camera crew adapt to being in a warzone. At first they are very jumpy, keeping heads down during engagements. After a few hours of screen-time they are totally desensitized to the whole situation. This second season contained more of the tactical stuff, such as signals intel and the baiting of the enemy. It showed another side of the fight; less brute hardware and more intel.
Great video thanks! 👍
Just to show how respected Ross is. If you compiled a list of well-known people whom the UK forces and Soldiers hold in the highest regard. Ross is in the top 3. You have.
Her Majesty The Queen.
Dame Vera Lynn.
Ross Kemp.
Don’t forget the good old Jim Davidson who has done so much. I’ve been to 2 shows he did 1 in Bosnia & 1 in Iraq. The one in Iraq we were really far forward in a very dodgy location but he still got to us to say hi 👋.

Cpt tom moore, Harry patch, Churchill?
The best reaction channel on YT!!! Absolutely awesome!!
The taliban used unsecured radios. Brits and Americans captured radios and used them to listen into taliban traffic via interpreters.
Definitely early afghan as the sa80s still have susats and plastic hand guards.
Yeah. Common sight to see interpreters carrying a taliban captured radio. Pretty useful because it can give heads up on an ambush or an IED down the road. I know that in some firefights, coalition forces used radios to roughly calculate enemy casualties in the middle of combat, like, for example, when a Taliban fighter ambushing a group of NATO soldiers reports one of their team being injured or killed on the radio, etc.
Some of these Taliban fighters are just as dumb as rocks with their radios. Not complaining though, since it’s worked out in favor of our troops lmao
They’re not captured radios, it’s an icom scanner, because there radios are not secure we can intercept there signal
@@6569carl theres footage of them using what is quite obviously a radio not a scanner although those are also used.
Google icom scanner, they look the same
All Ross Kemp's series are awesome.
For this channel specifically, Ross Kemp in Afghanistan and Return to Afghanistan are awesome.
I think this was about 2008/2009 as it's the second series he did with the British Army. In series one in 2007 he was with the Royal Anglians.
I was on that Herrick tour but different unit from the R.Anglians, bumped into Ross Kemp (literally!) after just coming back into Bastion from a tasking, had a quick chat about Afghanistan and what role I was doing out there. Really nice guy who seemed to pull his weight when out on the ground, much respect.
id like to ask you , what do you think of the Taliban being victorious in the war as all troops pull out from Afghanistan. Im very curious to hear a soldiers opinion who has fought in the war

Also Ross Kemp started out as an actor in a popular UK soap opera. He's also done documentaries on favela gangs, I recommend looking up the documentary by 'the milk' called Ross kemp on gangs
Here's the link, super interesting documentary.

I remember Ross Kemp from the British show Ultimate Force about the SAS. First 2 seasons were cool, the last 2 seasons were shit
Agreed 👍
I remember that! Was a scene where someone was pretending to be a Major, had two topless birds in the tub with him.
@@danep8553 Is that show good? a friend from work told me about Ultimate force
@@Bullet-Tooth-Tony- I've not seen it since it was on TV about 10 year ago, could be longer. Was a lad then. It can't be any worse than the garbage and propaganda that is on TV these days!
@@danep8553 From what I can remember there was hardly any propaganda, if at all. Followed the lives of the SAS.
Definitely do more of these, great watch! Ross Kemp has a few youtube videos with the Royal Marines too.
You need to eatch the next part of the ep. They start throwing more rpgs into the PB. So they post the platoon sniper on the roof and he nails the rpg man very nonchalantly.
i like that you let the footage play and dont keep stopping and starting. nice one mate
My favourite Ross kemp moment was when he was in Africa, he got held up by some locals trying to rob him.. he walks up to the guy holding gun, tells him “you’re not gonna shoot me” and takes gun from him.. quite tense.. guys an absolute boss 💪🏼
Absalutley loved Ross kemp doing this.... loved your reaction video ... would love to see more with Ross keep
The good thing about Ross Kemp is that he isn’t a professional journalist, he’s an actor. He went there to tell the story of the soldier’s on the ground and unlike the ‘professional’ journalists or reporters he wasn’t being political. No twist on the tale, no trying to paint the soldiers in a bad light to suit the narrative of whatever organisation they worked for. This is why he was given such access that most reporters would die for, and why he’s so respected.
Brand new again mate. Keep the videos going. Top lad
The guy that got shot was a scottish lad! We're made from hard stuff 💪🏴
Ross Is Always In Good Things and Very Authentic and his wide range knowledge about everything.. So great reaction video!!!
☀️☀️☀️☀️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
Whilst he can definitely be called a journalist now, back when he started this he was just an actor, he was in a soap and then Ultimate Force a show about the SAS created by Chris Ryan. He got a bit of a hard man reputation after this although he is nothing like the parts he played. Showed his true colours by making this type of show, putting his balls on the line with the troops.
This aged well
I miss being a medic :(
He’s a top man for sure - love seeing him showing us all what’s going on. His other series Ross Kemp on gangs is a great watch also
Props on the Yorkshire Tea in the background....the whole of England is proud of you
Kemp does good work, his stuff in Africa and dealing with child traffickers and soldiers is brilliant.
Great video, it’s good to hear from the perspective of a real US army solider. Ross kemp is a legend he’s put his life on the line in many documentaries to reveal first hand what goes on inside these conflicts and other affairs like gang violence in Brazil 👍
Come on if you think you're hard enough, mate love being British 🇬🇧
Love the Yorkshire Tea in the background
Great video. Very respectful to our lads. Nice one mate. Andy, ex Irish Guards
that a 10th Mountain T-shirt your wearing..? I met a load of them guys in Afghan 06 at KAF... awesome, accommodating and a generous unit
I hope you do more Ross Kemp 🥶
Ross is a British actor with balls of steel. Check out his show "Ultimate Force" about a S.A.S. unit he's the top Sgt. for. I believe you it's still on Tubi.
Bro, you realise Ross is a national treasure over here in Blighty. That means he can’t do anything wrong and we will always love him no matter what he does. 😂
Loved the way Nick says it's very exciting and you smiled straight away
When he first went out to Afghan, Ross was filmed going to the firing range with the guys he was embedded with prior to departure. Needless to say, he wasn't that good a shot and when leaving the range a comment could be heard along the lines of "SAS, my arse" - this was because Ross had played the part of an SAS trooper in a TV series that I forget the name of lol.
Wouldn't expect him to be any good

It’s awesome that Ross kemp is so agile to move around the compounds carrying those 400kg titanium balls
Ross Kemp started out as an actor & was on a soap called Eastenders for years. Then he went & started putting himself in the most dangerous situations on Earth & seems to thrive on it. Top bloke.
Ross Kemp is TV Actor and makes all sorts of Documentaries absolute legend 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Ross was a soap opera actor who turned to some serious journalism out in Afghan. Made some great programs and showed off what we did. Try and find the full series, its well worth a watch.
You have to react to Ross kemps hold up video! Great video brother

This was filmed in 2007/8, we call what you know as contact patrols “fighting patrols”
The best episode is when Ross Kemp is out on a patrol that comes into close contact and he hears the order to fix bayonets. His expression says it all! 😂🤣
This is from a series called Ross Kemp in Afghanistan
I’m sooo looking forward to this I’ve been hoping you’d do this for a while
Ross kemp starred in a SAS action show called ultimate force that you should take a look at
Journalists out in the field like this are very respectable. Putting themselves in harms way to report the facts. No biases or agendas attached.
One of the times that he films in Afghanistan he is with his dad's old Regiment, the Royal Anglian Regiment where there nickname is the Vikings. Actually the Royal Anglian Regiment is my local Army Regiment. 💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
If you've not heard of Ross kemp, he does alot over here, was a soap actor in eastenders but played the hard man, does alot for our troops and these series are fantastic for us at home to see our troops up close.
He also has gone into gang lands, just any hostile lands really to find out more about it.
I'd recommend you check his other stuff out, the guy has some stones haha
Hello mate, I've just come across your channel and I'm obsesssed - love the way you show interest in British culture, please keep the videos coming.. GOOD LAD!
Used to watch everything i could from this chap back in the day, he got ball of steel and not afraid to go into warzone.. multiple times.. as well as meet with pirates and gangsters around the world. he was multiple series of videos, guy is a fricken legend.
