Diehard Dad's Army fan Phill Jupitus has selected four of his
favourite episodes from the sitcom that captured the heart of a
nation. As Jupitus says, 'There are episodes here you will be
familiar with and some you may never have heard, but what I can
promise is that they are all achingly funny.' 'The Man and the
Hour' is the first ever episode of the series, in which Mainwaring
barks out, 'Come on Adolf, we're ready for you!'; 'My British
Buddy' finds Mollie Sugden guest starring as a Walmington
inhabitant besotted with the new GIs in town; 'Time on My Hands'
finds a German airman snagged by his parachute on the town hall
clock; and in 'A Soldier's Farewell' Mainwaring dreams he is
Napoleon at Waterloo, with Wilson an elegant Duke of Wellington...

Beck, Arnold Ridley, Ian Lavender and Bill Pertwee. 2 CDs. 1 hr 53
