Episode 47 - Perry and Croft Tribute special

Dad's Army podcast

Show Notes

Hello and welcome to a special edition of the Dad’s Army podcast. Oliver goes it alone this edition and covers the recent Perry and Croft tribute luncheon organised by the Heritage Foundation. Sit back and enjoy speeches from Frank Williams, Pamela Cundell, Bill Pertwee, Harold Snoad, Jimmy Perry, Su Pollard, Ruth Madoc, Vicki Michelle and Paul Shane.

The sound quality in this podcast is varied and some speeches are clearer than others – but I didn’t want to cut anything!

We’ll be back towards the end of May with Episode 48, and will bring you a preview of the Dad’s Army weekend at Thetford being held in June this year. All good stuff!

As always, please send in your feedback to us as [email protected], follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/dadsarmypodcast and make sure you enter our competition! Your chance to win an entire set of Dad’s Army DVDs. Stay tuned beyond the closing credits for details or take a listen to Episode 46.

Enjoy the show!

Well here it is. As threatened. For one night only. Yes, this will be offline by tomorrow. No, not really! Oliver and James report for duty after three years to talk about the return of Dad’s Army to the big screen! So put the kettle on, make sure your rations of hundreds and thousands are within reach and listen the boys as they try hard not to talk about Doctor Who.

Just a little teaser for you to show that we were serious about bringing back the show. And to help this old bank clerk remember how to actually get an episode online after three years. Hopefully I won't need the help of that butcher from across the road......

Welcome to another edition of the podcast and Merry Christmas to all our listeners!

Join James and Oliver in this edition of the Dad’s Army podcast as we talk about the classic episode, ‘Keep Young and Beautiful’ which of course Oliver and I do as a matter of course. Ahem. We also have a chat about what Ian Lavender, Bill Pertwee and Frank Williams have been getting up over the last month or so. All that, and of course the usual silliness.

Its another episode of the Dad’s Army podcast! This time we shine the spotlight on Don’t Forget the Diver, one of eight episodes directed by Mr Harold Snoad. Oliver was able to catch up with Harold recently and talked about the exciting times Harold spent on the show. In addition, Paul makes a welcome return to the show and shares some of his memories with James about David Croft.
