We’re pleased to announce that the first part of our Walking with the Wounded TV documentary, ‘Harry’s Arctic Heroes’, is going to be shown on BBC1 at 9pm on 23rd August.
The two-part documentary, narrated by John Hurt, has been a year in the making and tells the full story of the team’s North Pole expedition.
The show follows the team’s gruelling nine-month training schedule, their personal battles with injury, and contains behind-the-scenes footage of their journey on the ice with Prince Harry.
The second part of ‘Harry’s Arctic Heroes’ will be shown a week later on Tuesday 30th August at the same time of 9pm.
The soundtrack has been composed by Lorne Balfe working in association with Oscar winning film composer, Hans Zimmer. Lorne Balfe has worked with Hans Zimmer on a multitude of films including Inception, The Dark Knight, Sherlock Holmes and Frost/Nixon as well as a recent charity project for Amnesty International.
We recommend you book your night in front of the TV now! (Or alternatively, set your Sky+ or watch it on BBC iPlayer).

just watched the documentary. Was enthralled and overwhelmed with the determination and stamina of the lads. To overcome what they have already done was challenge enough, but to take on the Arctic walk is truly amazing. My husband is an ex serving airman and we are both members of our local Royal British Legion. We do a lot of fund raising for this worthy cause and back you 100% with yours. well done.
Amazing lads, fantastic documentary will certainly be tuning in next week.
hats off to you guys, it just shows if you
put your mind to it along with a bucketfull of determination you can overcome anything!!
no words come close to what you guys are doing, the pictures say it all!!
A truly inspiring documentary – amazing lads and what they have done with the Arctic Trek to the North Pole is incredible. And for Harry to join them too – fantastic. Will definitely be tuning in next week.
Watch this, it puts your life in perspective – Inspirational, well done lads.
Absolutely amazing! I will be glued for the next episodes.
You should all be incredibly proud of yourselves as I imagine as are your friends and family.
To overcome what you you have is wonderful and I wish you all the very best for the future.
Where on earth do we start?
What a fantastic programme, kids refused to go off to bed, and who were we to say no. A real eye opener for the whole country, so often we see coffins coming home, but how many of us think about the wounded, and the troubles they may have on a daily basis.
We are all looking forward to the next episode. Well done lads!
