Familiar to many from his season on the Directing Staff of Channel 4's Who Dares Wins, Melvyn Downes served in the SAS for 12 years. He has faced physical and psychological trauma. He's lost close friends and family members. He's experienced bullying and racial harassment.
But no matter how tough things get, he is always convinced he'll get out the other side.
He wasn't born fearless, or strong, or confident. Those things grew from graft, a willingness to learn from mistakes and a constant desire to push himself out of his comfort zone.
Structured chronologically around lessons learned the hard the way, that helped him be the best version of himself, on and off the battlefield, this is a true story of a life lived at the toughest extremes. It's also an inspiring insight into the can-do mindset of an SAS blade who lives by the ethos: 'Improve, adapt, overcome'.
