Strike Back S1-7
An explosive military series that follows Section 20, a branch of the British Defence Intelligence service that undertakes dangerous missions across the world. The action really picks up when disgraced American mercenary Damien Scott, a former Delta Force Commando, teams up with the anti-terrorist group and joins their mission to save the world.
The cast and story changes through the seasons as the team faces threat after threat.
With the launch of Strike Back S1, The LA Times said, “Strike Back unfolds quickly and confidently with brilliantly choreographed fight sequences and the exotic locales. But nothing trumps the friendship of the two male leads,” while The Washington Post called it “a surprisingly stylish and addictive new counterterrorism series.”
Season 7 is the final season of Strike Back, subtitled Vendetta. As the team investigates a terrorist threat in Europe, they realise there is a lot more to the story than they thought.
