Ten Of The Silliest Names For Regiments
This morning on the #HatchAndGeere breakfast show, Richard Hatch and Verity Geere asked for your alternative regiment suggestions. This all started because magician LCpl Richard Jones mentioned that people are asking the British Army if they can join the 'Magic Regiment' after he won Britain's Got Talent last year.
