This is the first time I have seen David Jason not as a character in a show. He seems like a genuinely nice person. I bet he would be a great story teller and someone to just chill and have a beverage with. I really like how he gives credit to the folks on the set and the team as a whole. His...

Not sure if we have any gamers on here from days of old. But if you are a fan of the beverage and enjoy a good sing song then this is a nice tribute to Charlie Mops - the man who invented beer. He must have been an admiral, a sultan or a king... This video is from a computer game I played...

Very nice. I think it important that stories like these are saved to be able to be shared with others.

I had heard this as well. For example: - To deter announcers from talking over the end music /credits by introducing the next show or whatever. - Prevent broadcasters from trimming the episode a bit short to display announcements, adverts, etc. - Broadcasters reducing the outro to a small...

A late Happy Birthday to ya, Leigh :18:! Hope things are well your way. Been a while since we last chatted. I miss working with ya on subs for your videos. What an awesome gift from Pete! :) Cheers, Rick

Yep, dip your fingertips in the water and it gallops right up to your elbow. Heard Clegg say something to this effect not too many days ago. :)

Interesting, I did not realize that Entwistle and Gastric wore the same style of jacket. Always thought that Donkey Jackets were the ones with the patches on the elbows. Or the type of sweater / varsity style jacket that upper class, elite college graduate guys might wear around the private...

Sorry to hear you have not been feeling well. Glad to hear you are starting to feel better.

Thanks, Gladney. That makes sense.

Hi Gladney, What is the metal container with the pin-up style lady on it? Looks almost like an old 'band-aid' box. I l searched for pictures of treacle tins but they all seemed to be like round 'coffee can' type containers. Cheers, Rick

Awesome-sauce. :)

So sorry to hear this, rest in peace our friend Dick. I enjoyed his wit and love of this site. Was fun to read his posts and chat with him. He will be missed but am glad he is no longer suffering from whatever ailed him. Thank you for letting us know, Pearl. Our condolences to his family. Rick

Great work Jack! I completely forgot about trying a VHS search. Can you share your thoughts on how the two compare / differ?

I thought I would look to see if there were multiple versions of the 1995 LotSW Vintage DVD R1 NTSC. To see if an earlier production run than the one I have would contain the 25 Years of LotSW episode special. Found 2 different production ones - so far (by looking on eBay). They both have...

Hiyas @Jacklite, It seems the information I was going on has changed. I could have sworn the 25 Years special was in the LotSW ":Vintage" series of DVD's that were released for Region 1. Now I am not finding much of any information about them via Google or Duck Duck Go. My earlier thread...

Greets and Weclome, @Jacklite , Your best option may be to look for it in US NTSC Region 1 DVD's if memory serves that is the only place the 25 Years special was released. Should be able to source via eBay or Amazon. Probably more so eBay looking for a used copy. It is early AM and...

Hiyas @BruceC, I guess I was not ready at that moment in time with the format of the show. Most things I had seen up until then had the format of a small group of main characters and a larger group of secondary cast members. After several episodes of Dad's Army I couldn't figure out who the...

Paraphrased from the immortal words of Roy Clarke himself - taken from the 25 and then 30 year special. I think it sums things up rather nicely. It is a comedy series based on three old men. These three old men were totally free, they had no responsibilities, no ties, they each lived...

Hiyas Bora Natty, I really like that picture of Arkwright as well. Found it on Ebay and Etsy, sometimes I'm tempted to get one just for giggles, to see if anyone recognizes Ronnie B. Have it saved on my watch list. :D Hiyas Marianna, did you ever get an induction stove top upgrade yet? If...

Hiyas there Captain and you too, Terry. Capt I've been meaning to message you as well soon. Had a chance to revisit 'Dad's Army' recently and really enjoyed it.
