He wasn’t the most decorated soldier of ww2 mate. And you don’t have to flounce around in pink feathers and rainbow coloured hair to be gay. If he was was so fukcing what doesn’t change the man he was. 

You are half right socks he was one off the most decorated soldiers off wwll and he wasn't gay doesn't matter one way or another if he was but that is false news lol there's a road named after him newtownards and a new housing estate getting build now were he live a statue of him in newtownards Town

I’m sure Tommy Macpherson was the most decorated British soldier of WW2. 

The kilted killer, there’s a good book about him. I have caught rabbits for his wife in there garden, she was a nice lady

Thats right, the developer rebuilt his old house and donated it to the blair mayne research society so i was told, they want to make it a museum dedicated to him in his house where he lived. Mayne was an irish man as he was born in ireland as partition was after

I thought they nailed his characterisation. But I didn’t even notice the gay bit. 

It was a decent series, especially towards the end when they’re full blown raiding. But it is what it is, which is a dramatical bit of entertainment.

What i found strange that they allowed churchills son to tag along on raids as he was a war journalist , surely he would have been a great capture for the Germans ?

Any of yas watch it? SAS rogue heros, its good watching but theyve fecked up blair maynes character, making him out to be just a drunken irish thug, which i dont think the family are too happy about. The man was a true warrior and hero on the battle field not to mention the most decorated soldier of ww2. The least they could have done is get an actor fitting his stature ffs

Been seeing clips of it on Facebook watch everyone I can. Really look like a good show !
