You CANNOT just CHANGE everything in the second season and call it Season 2! That's ridiculous. I'm so upset because I finally got into the first Season and was so happy to find the second Season and it's a different girl (woman)?!! With a completely different family?! This is horrible...I couldn't get into to this at all! What a shame. Ever hear of "If it isn't broke-don't fix it" for gods sake. Just...No.

Series two has Michelle Keegan taking over as Lance Corporal Georgie Lane, an army medic jilted at the altar and sent to Kenya on a humanitarian mission near the Somalian border.

As soon as she gets there a bomb causes havoc and death. Pretty soon Lane is dealing with charred bodies and infected wounds in kids that has spawned maggots.

Given Keegan cuts a glamorous dash with fake tan and false eyelashes there is plenty of sexist banter from the lads.

The episode ends with a dark turn as her vehicle is ambushed and Lane gets abducted by a guerrilla group.

It was all fast moving, plenty of ASAP being shouted out, leaving Lane with hardly much time to talk to her new boyfriend via Skype.

Maggots in a boy's mouth aside it lacked the grittiness of the Lacey Turner series, a girl from the council estate making a go of it to better her life. It is interesting to see where the next episode takes Lane.
