Series 1, Episode 5 - In The Field
Further details
A routine training exercise is complicated when Gary agrees to collect a cooker for his Dad. As this entails taking the tank off army land, looking for a farmhouse, strapping a cooker to the back of a tank and still making it to their target co-ordinates in time, the others are far from keen.
Gary combines leadership with bribery to get them to agree to their new mission, but his promise that it will take 'two minutes' is soon broken. After a false start, they eventually meet the seller, a man who has been on his own a little too long.
The cooker collected, they then have to complete the exercise, all the while staying one step ahead of the ever watchful Sergeant Thomson.
