Show Notes
Welcome to another episode of the Dad’s Army podcast. This time out it’s a commentary on series 3’s Sons of the Sea. We’re joined by the director, Mr Mervyn Cumming who in his time has directed episodes of EastEnders, Coronation Street, Brookside, Byker Grove to name just a few. Mervyn is in the middle of directing a new documentary about Dad’s Army, and he takes time out from his busy schedule to record a commentary with Oliver and I. Mervyn is able to provide an insight into what it’s like to make TV programmes and helps in creating a slightly different commentary podcast to usual.
Stay tuned at the end of the commentary to hear a brief interview Oliver recorded during the filming of Dad’s Army and Beyond: The Frank Williams Story about what it’s like to work with Frank.

Enjoy the episode and we’ll be back in around a month’s time.
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.
