From LADbible TV.

In this episode of our newest series, The Mission, we sit down with SAS legend Robin Horsfall to break down the infamous 1980 Iranian Embassy Siege. Robin takes us step by step through the intense operation, the elite SAS unit tasked with rescuing 26 hostages, and the high-stakes tactics involved. From the difficulties of the location and the specialised weapons, to the dramatic assault itself, he provides a gripping, blow-by-blow account. He also reflects on the significance of the mission, how it catapulted the SAS onto the world stage as unrivalled Special Forces heroes.
