Rapid Solicitors Sponsors ITV’s Military Driving School
This brand new series is filmed in Leconfield near Beverley, a short distance from our head office.
The show is hosted by well-known TV presenter Jeremy Kyle and takes the viewer through everything needed to be a driver in the British Armed Forces.
The programme follows a group of soldiers learning to drive for the first time and a group of experienced army drivers learning to drive more specialised vehicles to be used in war zones.
Rapid Solicitors’ Andy Baldwin said: “The army trucks are a familiar site in the streets around our head office. It’s fantastic that ITV have produced this series which focuses on a fascinating subject.”
Donna Murphy from HQ Defence School of Transport said “The Defence School of Transport is the largest residential driver training school in the world; we train over 1600 students a year from all three services. The ITV fly on the wall documentary will give the local community and wider TV audience an insight into what goes on behind the gates of Normandy Barracks, viewers will not only have an opportunity to see the variety of training that takes place here at DST but it will also give them a greater understanding and appreciation of the pressures our servicemen and women face.”
