Music written and composed by Wayne Roberts.
Channel 4’s cult hit show SAS: Who Dares Wins, now in its 8th season, returns to screens this summer.
The score, composed by Wayne Roberts, has garnered fans from across the globe and was recently nominated for best original composition at the Music and Sound Awards.
The series has been successfully distributed worldwide reaching an audience of millions. The format of the series was also sold for local remakes selling to six markets including Denmark (Korpset TV2), America (The Selection History Channel) and more recently Australia (SAS Australia Channel 7). There has been a huge amount of interest in the music from viewers both locally and internationally calling for the music to be made more widely available.
To coincide with the UK release of SAS WHO DARES WINS series 6 we will, for the first time, make the entire music catalogue available to stream. The score will be digitally released onto all the major streaming platforms. This will then be followed by a limited edition (500) 12’’ vinyl LP double gatefolded album release. The vinyl release will represent the “best of” from all 6 series.
The show has a worldwide audience and the ratings speak for themselves:-
• 7plus (Australia) – SAS Australia is the most watched show in the history of the platform
• Seven Network (Australia) – #1 rated entertainment show in Australia. Achieved a total video audience of 1.35 million, making it the biggest new show of 2020
