This series goes behind the scenes for the first time to the elite regiments of the British Army's Household Division, in one of the busiest years in its 350-year history.
Known as the King‘s Guard' the soldiers serve a dual role. Their sworn duty is to protect the Monarch and the State - as masters of state ceremony and tradition as well as being a modern fighting force. This series enters both worlds with privileged access as the Household Division prepares to serve the Crown in both its "red" (ceremonial) and "green" (combat) roles.
