I’ve reached a point where I no longer care for programs coming from the BBC, and shows like Rogue Heroes only confirm my decision to stay away. SAS: Rogue Hero combines altered historical accounts with a depiction of wartime as a “jolly old adventure”—something it absolutely was not and never could be. The series’ breezy, cheerful, almost careless tone, along with what seems like a disregard for Australian soldiers—who Rommel reportedly said he'd want fighting alongside him even if invading hell—is both bothersome and, I think, rather disrespectful. Referring to Commonwealth troops who suffered heavy losses as "colonials" doesn't improve matters either. To be direct, this production feels like it’s trying to recreate a longing for the old British empire, with an excessive need to celebrate and idolize war in the most misguided way imaginable: by presenting it as commonplace and honorable, instead of something strange and terrible. The one positive thing I can say is that the acting is good, and the production design is well done. The BBC consistently delivers on those aspects. Basically, unless you like to frequently sing "Rule Britannia," while wearing Union Jack underwear, with your confused dog watching from the couch, this show might be best avoided.
