Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham Fans of SAS: Who Dares Wins know Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham as one of the tough, no-nonsense leaders who drive recruits to the edge of mental and physical exhaustion. David Johns talks to the local man who went from crime-riddled teenager to Special Forces high-flier, A-lister bodyguard and TV star Cover image: Billy Billingham photographed by Glyn Dewis www.glyndewis.com, youtube.com/glyndewis If you can’t swim, are afraid of heights and tend to walk the other way when you see a spider, you’ll probably be watching the new series of SAS: Who Dares Wins with me from behind the sofa.

  • Set in the searing heat and brutal terrain of the Jordanian desert, candidates taking part in the ultimate reality TV show are enduring the kind of challenges, physical and mental, that members of the military’s elite Special Forces are trained to deal with and overcome as part of the job.
  • And driving the civilian recruits to the edge of exhaustion are the Directing Staff (DS) team, including ex-Special Forces instructor Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham.

“The show gets harder and tougher for the candidates with every series,” said Billy when we talked shortly before the new series launched on Channel 4. “We take people to the depths of their mental and physical fears, to confront them and deal with them – we like to call it turning mass destruction into mass reconstruction, peeling back the layers and as a result making them better people.

  1. It is all about the people.” DARK SPACES Billy, who grew up in Walsall and now splits his time living in Hereford and the US with his American wife, added: “On the show we help people through the dark spaces in their lives.
  2. Every person who takes part comes away a better person.
  3. Mind you, if someone needs to be told they’re a prat, I will tell them they’re a prat!” On a scale of one to 10, Billy says SAS: Who Dares Wins is around a seven for its realism to the training that UK Special Forces have to go through.

The new series is especially demanding being set in Jordan where Billy underwent Special Ops training himself. Looking back on his youth, he admits that he “went rogue”. Living on a tough estate in Walsall his mum and dad couldn’t control him and he was in constant trouble with the police and gangs and was even stabbed in the back at the age of 15.

Things started to change for the better, he says, when he tried to steal from an old man who instead of reporting him gave him his time and befriended him. With encouragement, Billy started boxing which laid the foundation for the resilience and routine required by the military. The experience, he says, proves that everyone needs someone to give them a second chance in life.

HOSTAGE RESCUES Billy joined the Parachute Regiment in 1983 and served until 1991 holding various roles, including patrol commander for operational tours in worldwide locations He joined the Special Air Service (SAS) in 1991 as a Mountain Troop specialist and was responsible for planning and executing operations and training in the likes of Iraq, Afghanistan, South America and Africa.

He led a number of hostage rescues and was awarded an MBE by the Queen and received the Queen’s Commendation for Bravery. Billy is a certified Special Forces instructor. His other skills make for an impressive CV – Counter-Terrorist Sniper instructor, Advanced Evasive Driving instructor, Tracking, Jungle Warfare and Navigation instructor, Demolition and Sabotage instructor, skiing Instructor, Mountaineering, Rock Climbing, Abseiling and Ice Climbing instructor, Combat Survival and RTI Instructor and Counter-Terrorist instructor.

After serving 20 years in the SAS, Billy became a bodyguard and looked after celebrity A-listers such as Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Sir Michael Caine, Jude Law, Kate Moss, Hulk Hogan, Russell Crowe and Tom Cruise. RELUCTANT STAR He admits his role in SAS: Who Dares Wins almost didn’t happen.

For a man who has spent his life taking on new challenges, Billy was reluctant to join the DS team when the first series of the show was being planned. “I had done some bits of previous TV work, but I didn’t like the idea of the show to be honest. As soon as they said the word SAS, I said I’m not interested as all the previous stuff on TV which was supposedly based around the SAS was so cheesy.

So, I didn’t take part in that first series. The TV people kept approaching me though and sent me copies of the shows – and I thought to myself ‘I wouldn’t mind doing this’. And I’ve kind of grow into it ever since.” The show has proved a huge hit with viewers and is such compulsive viewing that it has spun off American and Australian versions as well as the hugely popular Celebrity SAS series.

  • Billy stars in all formats and has earned the image of being ultra-tough and competitive but also sympathetic on occasions in the show’s mirror room – the space where the DS confront candidates who are struggling or have other issues.
  • He says he found the mirror room sessions the most difficult to handle initially because being put in front of the camera and having to talk rather than be out in the thick of the action all felt a bit alien to him.

The fact that he is now a recognised face from the show has also been tricky to deal with at times. “People come up to me now and know who I am but sometimes it can be difficult,” he says. “One thing I don’t like at all is being stared at. I was with my wife at the airport in New York and there was a huge guy staring at me.

  1. He didn’t stop, so I went up and confronted him and told him I didn’t like that he was staring.
  2. He just said he was sorry but wasn’t I the guy off the TV?” BIGGEST REGRET Life now for Billy couldn’t be more different.
  3. From being in the SAS and not being able to tell anyone, even family, what he was doing around the world, he is now free to show and share who he was, and is, on TV.

Of his time in the SAS he says: “Obviously it was tough and I could have died several times and been captured but you just have to push yourself to go that bit further. Everyone is stronger than they think they are.” Being a TV personality has made Billy’s own children “very proud” he says.

  • He’s not one to dwell on the past but admits that his biggest regret is not having had the time to see his kids grow up.
  • I was all over the world, in places like the Balkans and the Middle East and the family suffered,” he says.
  • My kids are wonderful and we get on great – and now I have grandchildren and I am making up for all the time I missed with my own kids by giving them as much of me as I can.” Billy was away from home so much during his time with the SAS that he wanted his kids to know why dad had been missing, so he wrote a book.

Titled The Hard Way: Adapt, Survive and Win, it was published in 2019 and quickly became a top-seller. In the book, Billy reveals his ‘no BS’ approach to his time in the military. DON’T BE A DICK ‘No BS’ equates to three rules which Billy says everyone should follow.

  1. First, tell the truth and accept the truth.
  2. Some people are just too scared to tell others the truth,” explains Billy.
  3. Second, take it on the chin and bounce back, but don’t keep making the same silly mistakes over and over.
  4. Third, be a good person.
  5. Or as Billy put it: “Don’t be a dick!” Not surprisingly with his background, Billy says he is “always looking for a challenge”.

So, how about breaking the record for the highest-ever parachute jump? “It’s been something I’ve talked about doing for some time as a science project” he says. “And I’m hopeful we will finally go for it this year.” With the motto ‘Who Dares Wins’, is there any doubt that Billy won’t make the ultimate leap into the record books! : Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham

Billy Billingham is chief instructor in the new series of SAS: Who Dares Wins He says that health and helping others is more important than possessions READ: Former Royal Marines Commando reveals the lesson he learned from life

Published: 22:12 BST, 22 January 2023 | Updated: 22:16 BST, 22 January 2023 Former SAS sergeant major Billy Billingham MBE is most famous for being on Channel 4’s SAS: Who Dares Wins. After leaving the military, he was a bodyguard to Hollywood stars such as Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise.

  1. He has six children and lives in Hereford and Florida with his wife, designer Julie Colombino.
  2. War taught me what really matters Warfare shows you that health and helping others is far more important than possessions.
  3. I was in the Bosnian conflict with the SAS in the early 1990s.
  4. It was horrendous — such brutality between communities.

I was about to go home for a rest when my patrol came across a village ruined by fighting. An old man was sitting on rubble, next to his shattered home. We asked if he needed anything, but he said ‘No, no, no’ and shared practically the only thing he had left with us, his coffee.

  1. His friends in the village were helping him and each other.
  2. That meant a lot to him.
  3. ‘And I have my health,’ he said.
  4. He motioned to the remains of his house: ‘All this is just materials.’ Former SAS sergeant major Billy Billingham MBE says war taught him that health and helping others is more important than possessions That moment made me realise what really matters in life — and it ain’t the things you own.

It’s being able to look after yourself and others. As my children have grown up, when they’ve asked for an iPod, because a mate has one, I’ve said: ‘You don’t need it. While your friends sit at home with their gadgets, we’re going camping.’ They’ve loved having adventures with their family, being distracted from materialist nonsense.

In 2008, I took my two eldest daughters, both in their early 20s, to Baghdad to work for my security company at the airport. The experience stayed with them: now one is studying forensic science and the other’s a district nurse. My wife and I spend most of our time working with our charity, Rebuild Globally, in Haiti, which provides access to employment and education.

Life isn’t about what you’ve got. It’s about what you do with it. The things I’ve seen over my military career have told me you don’t know how much time you’ve got left. So don’t waste it. Billy is chief instructor in the new series of SAS: Who Dares Wins, which starts tonight on Channel 4 at 9pm.

Where is Billy from SAS from?

Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham from SAS: Who Dares Wins gets back to basics Meet Mark ‘Billy’ Billingham. You might recognise him from the hit Channel 4 show ‘SAS: Who Dares Wins’. And statistically speaking, he should be dead. He’s been shot at, stabbed, held hostage, and fell into a vat of caustic soda.

He’s lucky to be alive, and he’s aware of it. He spent 27 years in the military, just over 17 of those with the SAS and 9 in the Parachute Regiment. His time in the military earned him the Queen’s Commendation for Bravery, as well as an MBE for outstanding service as the SAS ground commander during the 2005 terrorist attacks in London, and for leading several hostage rescues in Iraq.

Alongside being a member of the Directing Staff (DS) team on the show, he’s also a mountaineering/ice-climbing instructor, a navigation/tracking instructor and a philanthropist. And now he’s released a book, The Hard Way: Adapt, Survive and Win, which has been soaring up the book charts.

  • Why? Because it draws on a “no BS” approach to his time in the military.
  • Its rawness is uniquely relatable.
  • Billy found time in his busy schedule (a new season of SAS is impending) to talk to us about life outside the military, his appreciation for the outdoors, and why being humble is the key to a fulfilled life.

His story starts in Walsall. In a home with a lack of routine, Billy was free to run riot around the town. “My mom and dad couldn’t control me. I’m from a poor background and they were constantly at work, both doing 12-hour night shifts, so I was just running rogue,” he explains.

It was during this time that a chance encounter with a stranger reshaped his life. Billy recalls: “I was dared to steal his hat because we were just bored kids. But instead of giving me a good hiding, he just took his time and said ‘hang on a minute, there’s something about you.'” He notes this as the turning point in his life.

The stranger saw something in him that everyone else had overlooked, and helped Billy put his teenage angst into something more productive. With encouragement from this newcomer, Billy started boxing. In turn this would lay the foundation for the resilience and habitual routine required by the military. Hindsight is a fine thing. And we can learn a great deal from the generations that came before us. Perhaps this is where Billy learnt to be modest about his achievements. “Be humble about what you say, what you do and how you do it. It’s about gaining confidence, keeping that humanity and remaining realistic,” he advises.

With that mindset, he wasn’t afraid to enlist as the self-proclaimed “smallest and skinniest guy in the room”. He kept his head down and just kept going, slowly and steadily. Aged 16, he failed his first attempt at joining the army due to the aforementioned accident with caustic soda. But this didn’t stop him.

If anything, it fuelled him. A year later he went through selection to the Paras, and was crowned ‘champion recruit’. Since then, Billy has witnessed the worst in mankind and lived among people suffering at the mercy of Mother Nature. This doesn’t change his outlook on life.

“You have to realise there are people a lot worse off than you. I’ve seen it, I’ve experienced it. It taught me to be humble and remember how lucky I am,” he explains. And this is one of the key themes and title of his previous speaking tour, to push “always a little bit further”, to keep putting yourself out there, even if you don’t win.

“Remember that if you only get 10% further, that’s 10% better than you were before.” We can take the approach of “putting yourself out there” and apply it to the outdoors. Literally. Time outdoors feeds the soul. It realigns us with nature and helps us reflect on life and remember what’s really important.

  • And those are the basics that we need to get back to.
  • A simpler approach to living that leaves behind materialism and instead focuses on our mental and physical wellbeing.
  • Jogging for just 15 minutes a day can reduce anxiety and depression.
  • And high-energy sports like snowboarding and MTB flood us with dopamine which aids cognitive function.

Want to read more about how your favourite sports enhance brain function? Check out our infographic, “I’m a huge advocate for the outdoors,” Billy says. “I exercise every part of my body outside. If you want to work your arms, find a tree and do pull-ups, it’s all possible.

  • You can train out there, in the fresh air, just go out and do it.” “The outdoors is there for everybody, it’s free and it provides so many opportunities.
  • Nature gives you everything, and the best thing ever is going up and down a mountain, putting your legs to real use and breathing in the clean air.

It’s a realistic movement instead of doing squats over and over and neglecting other muscles in your legs in the process.” And getting out there doesn’t just help us physically, it incites a mental challenge that brings us back to nature. He goes on to explain: “Nothing beats a bit of navigation, with some weight on your back as you explore the outdoors.

I even love the rain, a bit of rain makes it all the better for me.” Connecting with the outdoors gives us that wild edge. It boosts an innate animalistic thrill that we all inherently seek. “Adrenaline helps us keep check of our actions when outdoors, it helps you recalibrate your sense and stability,” says Billy.

“That’s what I love, that nano hit of the fear factor.” Of course, we couldn’t go through the whole interview and not ask about the show What’s important to remember is that the show is designed to push people to the edge both mentally and physically. “We don’t want to break anyone. We just want to peel back the layers and find out exactly who they are,” Billy explains.

  • There’s a lot of people that don’t even know who they are, they have a social media life and a normal life.” It becomes part of the DS’s job to unwrap the recruits.
  • We need to find out where the conflict is, find out what they struggle with and then help them improve,” he continues.
  • We find that most people want those layers peeled back, they’re searching for themselves.” That’s why the fittest recruits often fail to win.

“You don’t have to be the fittest person, we just want to see you push yourself further and give 100%. You could be at the back of the race, but still giving it your all, and that’s what counts.” This is where the 80/20 rule comes into play. It’s been said that sport is 80% mental and 20% physical.

  1. You don’t need to be a Grade A athlete to succeed, you just need to demonstrate the willingness and grit to push yourself and try.
  2. You’re completely out of your comfort zone and have to give it your all.
  3. It’s a ballsy show, and I admire those who come on it,” Billy concludes.
  4. SAS: Who Dares Wins Australia will be released in October.
