Show Notes
Welcome to another edition of the Dad’s Army podcast. This month, Paul Carpenter from the Dad’s Army Appreciation Society joins me for the whole episode and previews the premier event on the Society’s calendar, the 2009 Perry and Croft Day which is due to be held on Sunday 10 May at Bressingham Steam Museum. The museums's website is http://www.bressingham.co.uk/ Paul announces which of the stars will be appearing (subject to work commitments and good health) and provides an insight into what it takes to put on such an event.
We then discuss the first episode of Dad’s Army I ever saw, Don’t forget the Diver – an absolute classic series 4 episode from 1970.
Episode 35 of the podcast will feature a number of interviews and chats with the stars of Dad’s Army - I hope to be talking to several of the cast and crew at Bressingham next week. Take a listen to episodes 20 and 21 of the podcast to hear coverage of last years event.
As per ususal, we’d love to hear from you, so please send in your feedback to us at [email protected].

More from Dad's Army podcast
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.
