A show about the remarkable SAS Original Reg Seekings, from his humble beginnings in the Cambridgeshire Fens to his instrumental role in the success of the SAS in North Africa, Siciliy, Italy, France and Germany. Seekings was portrayed in SAS Rogue Heroes by Theo Barklem-Biggs.
Starting at the very bottom of the ranks, Seekings was a farm labourer’s son who climbed from private to squadron sergeant-major and became one of the British Army’s most highly decorated non-commissioned officers of the Second World War. In short, Seekings was an ordinary man who did extraordinary things. His is a remarkable story – one of fierce ambition, camaraderie, inner strength and heroism as he transcended humble beginnings to be there from the very first day of the SAS, which was born in the late summer of 1941.
Tony Rushmer has been a journalist for twenty-five years, covering a wide range of top-class sport for national newspapers and magazines. His first book was the critically acclaimed The Triumph of Henry Cecil, which was one of three finalists for the 2019 Dr Tony Ryan Award.
