The team recovers as they realize that their truck has hit a landmine. Much time is spent teasing Nick over his relationship with Mary before they decide to leave the vehicle.

Mary has been transferred and replaced by a male padre.

Christmas Special
New boy Gordon House comes out to replace Millsy. He is a proud Yorkshire lad and instantly gets into a class war with Nick - whom he calls Rupert whilst Nick christens him Tower Block.

When the Taliban attack Tower Block has every reason to be grateful to Nick and they accept that they are on the same side. As Bird discovers her pregnancy was a false scare and Rocket and Mac treat everybody to deep-fried goose for Christmas dinner normality returns - in the form of a food fight.
