[QUOTE="FarmyStu, post: 5970954, member: 806"] I'm quite sure the whole thing is run over a single week. I also enjoyed the show and I'm sure the people who make it to the end are tougher than average. But I did spend a lot of time explaining to my Mrs that this is in no way equivalent to SAS selection. Not even a tiny bit close. In fact I'd say it isn't even as hard as typical Army basic training. I'm sure most on the show are fit enough but keeping going for your first 10 weeks is psychologically much tougher than pushing on for a week IMO. As for the women: well unless standards are dramatically lowered then there won't be any women in the SAS anytime soon. There are other tough courses that have been available to women for a decade or more. P Coy and the Commando course for example. 2 or 3 women have passed the Commando course and none have passed P Coy. Both are much easier than SAS selection. [/QUOTE]
