What Happened After Taking On the Taliban?

Current affairs. Panorama meets the soldiers featured in last year's Taking On the Taliban special, to find out what they're doing now.

Current affairs programme presented by Jeremy Vine. Last year in Taking On the Taliban, Panorama joined the Grenadier Guards fighting on the frontline in Afghanistan. The programme captured some of the fiercest close quarter combat fought by British troops in 50 years. Several soldiers lost their lives and many more were injured.

Now Panorama catches up with those soldiers to find out: what happened after taking on the Taliban? Some have been awarded for bravery, while others are either planning to leave the army or have already left.
