-	== Synopsis ==	+
-		+
-	Reality show that began as an experiment to see if the youth of today could hack 1950s style national service, the first series was a success but subsequent series' have had a twist: now criminals sign themselves up to it to see if they can become better people.	+
-		+
-	Basically, it's army officers shouting at people for the best part of four weeks and seeing how our victims tolerate and deal with it and it's hugely entertaining.	+
-		+
-	The show has always traditionally split the group into two sections, red and blue, and competition has always been an element. This time round the show is rather more structured - the sections spend much of their time in each episode working towards a final challenge, the winning section of which gets to hold the "Pegasus Cup". Winning a challenge also means they get a reward. However losing a challenge means your section being punished whilst the others enjoy themselves - there are no prizes for second place.	+
-		+
-	The section which wins the most challenges gets to do a proper parachute jump at the end of the series.	+
-		+
-	== Catchphrases ==	+
-		+
-	''"There are no prizes for second place..."''	+
-		+
-	== Theme music ==	+

-		+
-	== Trivia ==	+
-		+
-	The show was originally called "Lads' Army" in the first series, it was then changed to "Bad Lads' Army" in the second series, "Bad Lads' Army: Officer Class" in the third series and "Bad Lads' Army: Extreme" in the fourth and final series.	+
