The Final Mission: Foxy’s War (C4, 9pm)
FORMER elite special forces soldier Jason Fox endured harrowing experiences during several tours of Afghanistan. Now he’s returning to the country for the first time since then. He claims the place and the events he witnessed defined him as a soldier and as a man; he spent three years in combat there, saw friends killed or seriously injured, and escaped death on many occasions. But it’s left its mark on him – he suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, which resulted in him being discharged from the military. You might think that going back to Afghanistan would be the last thing he’d want to do, but Fox is determined to help its people. This documentary charts his progress as he meets old friends and enemies, and asks if the sacrifices made were worth it.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
