Born in Leicester and a keen sportsman, Dilksy began to find trouble as a teenager, and realised the Army was his way out of that path. Nudged to join the Royal Engineers to ensure he learnt a trade, Ian completed his training as a bricklayer before completing his Parachute Regiment Jumps Course, and joining 9 Parachute Squadron Royal Engineers. His 24 year army career spanned 2 UN postings to Cyprus, a Kosovo deployment, 3 tours of Afghanistan & 1 Iraq tour. During his career, Dilksy made his way to MOD Chicksands and became part of the team that delivers Resistance To Interrogation training to the UK Special Forces & RAF Pilots, and developed the process by learning from previously captured hostages and personnel. Dilksy has appeared on 5 seasons of Channel 4's 'Who Dares Wins' programme as a key part of the interrogation team, and is also a serving Firefighter.
