Military Driving School

Jeremy Kyle joins the team at the Defence School of Transport in Leconfield, East Yorkshire, the largest, toughest driving school in the world. It’s here that every driver deployed in Afghanistan is trained and the skills learned in training help save lives on the front line. Over the course of 12 weeks Jeremy follows a group of trainees learning to drive for the first time and a group of experienced soldiers who are learning to drive highly specialist vehicles ready for Afghanistan. The series follows servicemen and women at all levels - from teenage soldiers straight out of basic training, to battle hardened veterans coming back for extra training, Throughout the series Jeremy experiences just what is involved in the training and takes part in exercises including driving a landrover on a knife edge climb and night training exercises with night vision goggles.
