Authenticity is vital to Perry, who remembers the time he was at Rada, rehearsing with fellow actors, when a secret onlooker turned out to be George Bernard Shaw. “He said, ‘I enjoyed your show tremendously. I laughed a lot. But you’ve got to understand one rule of comedy: you must have reality, otherwise it’s rubbish.’” In any case, thanks to its successful repeats Dad’s Army is guaranteed immortality. But to what does Perry attribute our enduring love of Captain Mainwaring and co? “It’s because we reminded the British people of their finest hour. It had wobbly back projection and cardboard scenery, but also the truth… and great artists that brought it to life.”
Simon Blackwell ‘To create comedy that generations of people genuinely love is rare, and he managed it time and again’. Perry’s work on the show - along with that of the producer, David Croft - created one of the most popular British television programmes of all time’.
Jack Dee ‘Amazing contribution to British telly. Watched Dad's Army only yesterday. Still as funny as when I watched it as a kid.’
Vicki Michelle ‘a brilliant comedy writer & true gentleman. He leaves us such a legacy’
Ian Lavender ‘Jimmy, he has been a part of my life for such a long time. ‘He was half of one amazing partnership, it brings back so many wonderful memories… lots of good times together with much laughter…’
David Schneider ‘Thanks to Jimmy Perry for the sublime Dad’s Army, the perfect sitcom, and for making me laugh for over 40 years.’
Shane Allen, BBC controller of comedy commissioning, said: ‘Jimmy Perry is a Goliath of British comedy writing. His work will be enjoyed and appreciated for many years to come’.
Miranda Hart ‘Thank you Jimmy Perry. You made our world a funnier and brighter place.’
Nigel Farage tweeted: Jimmy Perry created and co-wrote the fantastic Dad's Army, my favourite comedy of all time.'
Tom Watson 'We grew up laughing at Jimmy Perry's hilarious characters. One of our greatest TV writers who will not be forgotten.'
Ruth Madoc ‘Being on set was quite hard work, but great fun. We weren’t allowed to laugh. One particular series we’d been naughty giggling on set. This didn’t go down very well with David and Jimmy, so they made us T-shirts saying, ‘Comedy is a serious business’. We were told in no uncertain terms’.
Frank Williams “Dad’s Army was one of the happiest periods of my life, it was a wonderful role to work on.”
TV comedy producer Jon Plowman said, “The quality of his work was consistently brilliant”, adding that Jimmy and his co-writer David Croft came as a package. He described them as “comedy revolutionaries”, saying, “They made it look easy; we know it is not.”
Chris Jarvis ‘this sitcoms are pure gold & will live on.’
Jeffrey Holland ‘There is no doubt that he and David created some of the most memorable and iconic characters and moments in television sitcom history and as such, has left us with a wonderful legacy we can look back on for many years to come. I am proud to have been a part of so many of his series’.
Mark Braxton ‘There is a light that never goes out - and its name is Jimmy Perry’
Perry admits to being bowled over by the continuing success of his Home Guard comedy: “Isn’t it amazing? Let me tell you, I’m overwhelmed.”
Appointed an OBE in 1978, Jimmy Perry published his autobiography, A Stupid Boy, in 2002 and received a British Comedy award for lifetime achievement in 2003.

I found the boxset of dvds of this show in Tesco when I was around 11 maybe younger I'm 19 now and still watching. A timeless classic.
Harpic 😂
Was harpic even invested in the 40s?
I was brought up on Dad's Army as a boy in the 90's. Over time I recorded them all on video tapes but now have them all on dvd boxset. Timeless classic 👌🏼
I bought the complete DVD set, that came in a pseudo ammo box & contained a Dad's Army beanie.
@@Crimsontraum7 Can I still buy this somewhere? it sounds epic!
Sergeant Wilson absolutely brilliant.He was away in a world of his own most of the time.
I was just a toddler when this came out, but I love it. So sad that James Beck was taken so young. He seems like a real likeable character.
Raised on the show as kid and at 67 it still cracks me up.
Watching this with my 14yr old son and we both love it. It’s great writing teamed with great timing and great delivery. Timeless mastery of their art.
yes Arthur Lowes Captain Mainwaring physical comedy pratfalls absolutely magic
Yeah every actor was perfectly cast and the writing was brilliant. You hit the nail on the head when you said timeless.
capt mannering a great actor
I laughed at this maybe 50 years ago and the comedy and brilliance of the actors does not diminish with time, a wonderful show.
The writing is genius too!
Maybe the gentle subtlety and brilliance of the humour gets even better with time.
,
Yes. Out does all modern rubbish. These guys are awesome
Holds up very well!
I am enjoying these episodes. So much to laugh about.
I'm an amateur military historian and have studied the LDV (Local Defence Volunteer)/Home Guard history. Beyond the shenanigans on the show to get a few laughs it is surprisingly accurate. Yes, before the government could get rifles to the units they actually did tape butcher knives to mop handles, carried farm implements, or the odd fowling piece to ward off any enemy attack which was feared to be imminent. Early uniforms were nothing but an LDV armband on civilian clothes. Uniforms, supplies, and web-gear eventually trickled down to the Home Guard units. The first rifles issued were either the American made Pattern 14 as in this show or the Canadian made Ross MkIII, until sufficient supplies of the Lee Enfield became available. Little nuances such as the men being issued binocular cases instead of the usual basic pouch for their Pattern 37 web-gear is a great touch too. Kudos to the writers of this wonderful show!
Only Godfrey (aka Arnold Ridley) could get a big laugh from just saying: "Good evening!!"
British Comedy at its best.. Timeless.
the year is 2021.. im a long standing fan .. i;m 43 years old as of writing and i can remember this as a very early clear memory also my other favourite Allo Allo.. that's a Britain to be proud of
Another great episode; this one has it all: Hodges at his villainous best, dithery Jones in extended panic mode, a foreboding Frazer, Captain Square in full Col. Blimp mode as Mainwaring's main foil, Walker to the rescue in typically underhanded manner, and a more biting than usual dose of social satire. Definitely in my top ten.
A foreboding frazier? Nah, just him being his nasty self as usual.
thx for sharing. This was a big part of my childhood. Me and dad allways had a lot of fun watching Dads army. After more than 50 years I still enjoy watching this.
Still the best...even 50 years ago...
I thank the BBC for this exciting and immortal comedy work
"Good evening"
There'll alway be an England. And Scotland! Cheers from Australia.
Definitely my favorite episode. Lots of laughs from Jone’s testimony.
An oldy but a goldy no real violence swearing just simple comedy of the time
Pure comedy genius. Where do you start? Writing, acting, all beyond 1st class. God bless each and every 1 of them. The joy and laughter they continue to bring.
"Knicker elastic, you can't get it"! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
OR my favourite " oh for gods sake mavis give it a rest"! 😂😂😂😂😂Better than medicine.
When I find my way to the UK and exit the Port of London, I’m going to make my way to the various grave sites of these fine gentleman actors and have conversations with their tombstones 🖤🙏🏾 they’ve brought me so much joy and merriment over my years alive and in a way, they feel like uncles and great grandfathers to me at this point.. they’ve been with me since I was a younger person and I owe my knowledge of this program to my late father 💔 he loved Perry & Croft’s work - we used to watch Allo Allo together after he and Mawma divorced and he got his own apartment in the city - Pops had taste and distinction in his nightly television viewing schedules 🧐 these days I watch the program with some tea and a few biscuits or as an evening enjoyment before retiring for the night.
Arthur Lowe,
John Le Mesurier,
Clive Dunn,
James Beck,
Arthur Ridley - who is the great great grand pappy of Daisy Ridley from the new Star Wars movies for those playing along at home -
John Laurie - no relation to Hugh Laurie I’m afraid -
Bill Pertwee - distant relation to John Perwee of Dr Who and Sean Pertwee aka Alfred bloody Pennyworth from Gotham fame 😌 -
Ian Lavender is one of the few surviving cast members to date.. everyone else has about passed on now.
Rest in peace, one and all 🙏🏾
Carry on!
Ian Lavender died February 2, 2024. God bless him❣❣❣❣❣
@@ginnylorenz5265 it crushed me to learn the last member of the original cast had passed on but now all I can imagine is the entire group sitting in a pub in the afterlife.
Ian comes stumbling in through the front door and sees everyone waiting for him, roaring with laughter and applause as Lavender takes his seat and Captain Mainwaring smiles and simply says in a jocular and jovial manner,
“Good to see you again, … you stupid boy.”
This was a great episode don't recall seeing it before!💂🔫⛪🏛️🇬🇧
Nice bit of British humor. I had never heard of this series before.
BRILLIANT

How do you have corned beef? There's a war on you know.
Now I have to run out and get some corned beef

I originally watched this show as re-runs as young kid and obviously didn’t get to see them all. Soooooo good to be able to see them All. Enjoyed it so much as a kid...and even more now as an adult...one of THE best shows and Characters
One of the Best I have Seen.
Oh Jonesy cracks me up! 😂
23:49 - On the night of the 45th I went out into the light and put Captain Mainwaring out together😂😂😂😂
Simply brilliant!
"Perhaps you might care to inspect my thermometer case" 🤣
I have taken a pick, finally, Jones is my favorite 🤣
jones is my hero
Very enjoyable,Thankyou. Reminds me of my Cubs and Scout days in the late 40's and early 50's. Not to forget my OTC experience ! Some fun also. Be Blessed.
Good evening !!!!
“I need room to make my gestures.” 😀
It seems that in Capt. Square's court you were guilty until proven innocent.
A very touching episode. Absolutely brilliant.
Great script and actors in a period show. It will never get old.
Had a great belly laugh when Jones was on the stand!
I cried with laughter during the courts seen with Jonsey
court scene
timeless. absolute genius acting.
When Jones takes the stand. LIT lol
Walker saves Mainwaring.
JUst watched the movie, a total disappointment, had to come on here a cure myself from the pollution that infested my eyes and ears.. Cant beat the original. What a cast and what a show.. LOve it
Yes they really made a mess of it. You can't beat the original but surely they could have done a better job of it than they did.
ThePerson1959 It had to potential to be a lot better, especially with the great cast it had..The original cant be beaten
***** Toby Jones, Blake Harrison, Michael Gambon, Bill Paterson, Bill Nighy, Daniel Mays, Blake Harrison. I cant remember the rest but with a cast like they it should have been much better.
***** It was a poor effort, a big disappointment. It just goes to show you can never beat the original
***** I agree
i always laugh at the part where jones is taking his oath at the court room to testify
"Good evening"...LOL
My favourite line in the episode :)
18:05
Mr Mainwaring have you any questions to ask the uh witness?
Yes?
What are they?
…I don’t know
….What do you mean you don’t know?
I don’t know because my papers are down there and I’m up here.
WELL COME DOWN HERE AND GET ‘EM!
19:30 Now then Mr Adamson…no questions me lord!
Time for Wilson and Jones for a trip to the funny farm.
After growing up with the BBC radio version of "The Lord of the Rings" it's nice to be able to put a face on the actor who played Bilbo (Sgt. Wilson).
was that the 10 cassette serialized version ... i seem to remember being 7-10 years old in 1980 something
@@TregMediaHD The 1981 BBC version had it in 13 hour-long episodes, though for the US it was 26 half-hour episodes... though apparently there was an NPR (US) version in 1979. If the version you remember had Tom Bombadil, it was the 1979 version.
@@Punnery OMFG yes that's the one ..i've recently been offered a ten hour audible version but the way the BBC version was described as I fell asleep as a youngling child which gave vivid dreams and long lasting memories that couldnt be replaced by inferior recreations.
thanks from a drunken sobbing man
i love frazer when he says "there's no doubt about it manering's done for" and "that's all it needs" starting from 17:07
@PJ Train 🤣
Frazier is a nasty bastard....
The Home Guard was a remarkable army for several reasons. First of all, it was the largest volunteer army ever raised in Europe, never saw any action at all, killed or wounded none of their enemy, killed and wounded quite a few of their own men in training accidents and even managed to bump off quite a few British civilians for the same reason. Makes you proud to be British, doesn't it?
You obviously are not proud to be British .The purpose of the Home Guard was to defend U.K. from Nazi invasion which looked like it would happen 1940/41 did not happen as result no action .There is not a defence force anywhere in the world that does not have training accidents resulting in death and injury British forces no different .Your comments would seem to indicate that you have a bee in your bonnet about something hope you work it out
OK.Over and Out.
Hang on a minute.....honesty, interigrity.....but that bloke blackmailed the magistrate! The crooked git!! 😂 brilliant!!
How long did it take to figure that out?
After Jones ‘s testimony, I’am surprised that Captain square didn’t have Mainwaring hanged.
After the vergers confession i'm surprised the verger didn't end up in the box instead of Mainwaring.
If I were Square, I would have Hodges up in the dock. And guilty of obstructing justice.
All together now: On the evening of the seventh...
On the night of the 45th…..
I stream it here in Texas on Britbox.
15:24 imagine how awkward it would be if Mainwaring were a solicitor AND Magistrate Square’s arch rival.
My dad had that "am I 'urtin you lad?" No sergeant. BS when he did national service 70 years ago
To me Walker wasn't a crook he was a lovable rouge like Arthur Daly
Who, I mean, who dislikes a episode of Dad's Army?
You would have to go out of your way to do it, and if you didn't like the show... Why would you look up a episode of the show to dislikes it.
I have seen all of them many times, but is still a joy to watch again.
A modern BBC worker who hates it for lack of diversity etc...
6:38 If I remember what I've read right, the British in Omdurman had Lee-Enfields, but their Egyptian and Sudanese allies still had Martini-Henrys.
MsDjessa A bit behind!🤨🔫👳🇸🇩
MsDjessa The Lee-Enfield came out in 1896!🔫💂🇬🇧
@@jessesands4099 Hmm, well Omdurman was 1898. Were you thinking the siege of Khartoum?
MsDjessa Correct September 2nd 1898 to be precise!
17:04 Will you indeed? Yeeesh 🤣
Miday, south vietnam watching with a glass of rum
everyone is different and so funny
Such a pity that the Dutch translation misses so many of the subtle jokes. For example, the magistrate, (Captain Square), always calling Mannering, "Mainwairing", which is how it is written but not pronounced. It`s a put down. And Mainwairing addressing the magistrate as "My Lord", which is ludicrous in a magistrates`court.
22:12 - 24:03
I died laughing😂😂😂
I used to hate Mainwaring, but as I get older, I'm tending to sympathize somewhat.
I was surprised Virgil told the truth. Usually, he was out to get Monowar.
@@fjccommish The verger had a conscience.
On the night of...
18:53 British justice is the best in the world!
You can conduct ya case from down heeyah, and go back to the dock afterwards for the sentence!
The verger is an ancestor to bubbles from trailer park boys
Jones doesn't have the breach of the rifle open @06:30 !! He closed the breach bolt earlier and put the bolt cocking handle handle down so there's no way that Wilson could see down the barrel as it would be too dark ! All the others have the breaches open,with the bolt pulled back ,and the cocking facing upwards, ready for inspection ,which allows in the light at the breach loading end of the barrel !
17:58 Will you both kind-ly-keep-quiet! ☕️
Frank Williams died 26.6.2022.
Ian Lavender died 2.2.2024.
23:05 be the truth the whoooooole truth and nothing but the truth
Law and Order. Dads army
Jones is funny
I unlike nearly everyone else find him the least funny character, I have always hated slapstick and Jones slips into it constantly (Pun intended).
The guildford four.
The highlight is watching the bloke behind Jones corpsing in the court room scene.
...on the evening of the 45th...
Shame that James beck passed away so early.walker and pike made this show
Hilarious
17:27 I’m going to speak up for him: 23:50
all those double vowels in the subtitles , i'm guessing Dutch . anyone know ? please any and all replies !
Dutch!
Yes the "LEE-ENFIELD" Bolt Action Rifle good for Shooting Fuzzy Wuzzys!😆🔫💂👳⚔️🐪🇬🇧🇸🇩
6:30 The breech is closed how can Sgt. Wilson see anything?
Maybe he didn't but noticed before looking down the barrel. Anything is possible with comedic license. It's great what some notice that I would not have a clue about.
Sadly its never fair play its always some smooth talking WALKER guy who can have leverage on someone to change the course of fate. These demons can seem like angels if they are on the side of good, fundamentally they aren't altruistic but the end justifies the means.
They don't like it up'em....
18:28 SIT DOWN!
8:36 - :)
I have always loved the British flag poking at the snakey swastikas in France. Defiant & plucky!
What do you mean good evening ✌️✌️✌️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺😅😅
27:05 someone let one rip
What a Corker.
integrity of british justice ?? thats what they call it LMBFAO yr midgisty
14:49 why does wilson collapse ? and then its played off as a joke?
The movie was a complete waste of time. I’m so glad I didn’t pay to watch it.
The whole bloody WW II was a waste of time and more. Now, sit as a duck and learn something about it, so we don't have to spend our time the next time.
Call rev. Timothy Fart(h)ing....
integrity of "british" justice???.........Birmingham 6...Guildford 4....etc....etc.....bloody sunday...etc.....zzzz....zzz....zz
It's also a joke about how it wasn't justice that happened it was Walker blackmailing the judge
MOre of the NL crap. Stop littering TH-cam with this.
