Late last night I saw a preview for a new show next month where a former SAS trooper tries to evade a team of special operators. Has anyone else seen this or have more info on the show?

Very cool concept. Keep us posted if they show it again. Hopefully they throw in a couple of urban tidbits as well.

I just found it. Its called Special Forces: Manhunt
It is however the same guy from the BBC show, Chris Ryan.
It will now be on the military channel. This guy was one of the SAS guys in Bravo 2 Zero. I believe he was the medic, again I could be wrong. LOL

Heres some info on the shows.

Siberia
Chris Ryan's mission is to locate a British spy satellite that's crashed 650 km inside the Arctic Circle in Siberia and destroy any secret components that survived the impact. Conditions are ferocious as he's dropped by helicopter on the frozen tundra.

Honduras
Chris Ryan is in the Mosquito Coast in Honduras. His mission is to covertly enter the country, retrieve a cache of secret communications equipment buried deep in the jungle then escape to the coast with the secret equipment.

Bostwana
Chris Ryan's mission is to rescue a fighter pilot shot down over the Kalahari Desert who is now hiding in the Tsidillo Hills of Botswana. He has to find the injured pilot and fly him out using a micro light hidden in the bush by friendly agents.

Yep, those are the same shows, just renamed for the US market. They are available on you tube right now for free if you want to watch them now.

first a word of warning "manhunt" in google yeilds mostly male model searchs or some odd video game.

I just watched the whole first episode if Hunting Chris Ryan, he was in some nasty jungle in south america (Honduras) with a 4 man team on his trail (2 former seals and 2 former SAS) it was not too bad worty my 55 min.

Thanks for the info. I really have to upgrade the dish package and get the military channel anyway.

I wonder how the capture team "captures" him? simply spotting him? what if they had tasers, that would up the ante as well as the entertainment value.
