Welcome to a special edition of the Dad’s Army podcast. This fortnight we make the biggest departure yet from our regular format. Join us as we tour around the locations used in the series in and around Thetford. We were lucky enough to be accompanied by Frank Williams and Harold Snoad who share many of their memories filming in this beautiful part of the country. This week’s cover-art is of Frank looking at the green used for the pageant in Knights of Madness. The tour was organised by the Dad’s Army Appreciation Society who kindly invited us at the podcast to come along.

Welcome to Episode 22 of the Dad’s Army Podcast. This week sees the second and final of the Croft and Perry Weekend Specials and features speeches made by Pamela Cundell, Harold Snoad, Michael Knowles, Jimmy Perry and David Croft at the Dad’s Army Appreciation Society’s annual member’s meal. The cover-art this week is of David and Ann Croft at the event – with me at the same table!
