Is HMS Raleigh like the Channel 4 programme makes it out to be?

A few years ago there was a programme on channel 4 about basic training at Raleigh and I was wondering if it was accurate or edited to look a certain way to make it more entertaining for the public

What you see looking in and what you see looking out are very different things........

Enjoy. Eyes open, gob shut.

That is all.

It was for public consumption so edited to a certain extent.

I went through Raleigh in the late 1980's and thought a programme called Nozzers gave a better view of the training, the big difference between then & now is mixed classes and a few extra weeks.
@sonar-benders advice is spot on, enjoy being there
