Ultimate Force lasted around 4 seasons. Only 1 season was released on DVD in Australia that I know of. I'll have to track the others down from the UK.
Ultimate Force
Ultimate Force - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
follows the adventures of Red (Mobility) troop of (I think) 22 SAS. It mainly revolves around a SSgt who looks like Michael Chiklis. The first season starts with the indoctrination and training program of the SAS and the very few who make it through. Of the 3 that make it in, one is played by the Indian doctor from Heroes.
Within the first episode we see the two new recruits (one is sent to Boat Troop) interact with the rest of the troop, go on their first mission (rescuing hostages from a bank) and having to deal with officers (one played by Apollo from BSG) and after action reporters ..they have to account for all their bullets, path of movement and who shot which of the bad guys etc.
It's the sort of show that if it had been made in the US or had a much bigger budget would have gone over gang busters. The storylines are fantastic and the acting is gritty and superb but the action sequences whilst seeming very realistic would be much better with a bigger effects budget.
During the first season we see them use the Kill House a few times, have arguments with other troops (one leader was played by ex SAS turned author Chris Ryan), stop a CNBR threat etc. It also offers a peek into the signals side of things and some of the drab run of the mill necessary operations things like trying to kill time while those in charge make decisions.
They also show how the SAS infiltrate buildings, structures etc. Awesome stuff.
Each season (like most Brit shows) only go 6 or so episodes.
