Yeah, that's just a bad choice of words on my part jambutty. I've noticed whilst watching this TV show that the punishment or, 'beastings' as they call them, seems to be mental and physical, it also seems to be quite effective with the lads.
The thing I've noticed is the way the NCO's are one minute giving them a right rollocking or a beasting ... then the next moment telling them they'll get them through the training! Obviously they know what they're doing though because by the end of their training the lads that are left appear to have nothing but respect for these officers.
