cute

British comedy + home front shenanigans. shines an amusing light on everyday life in extraordinary circumstances. ex war hero, bumbling momma's boy, trader of all things rationed, it has all the expected characters.

several short shows, easy to listen to on a commute, or as a break between more serious content.

Funny and Witty

I loved it! Very well written comic storylines and good strong characters and good acting.

What fun!

Timeless humor. I was surprised how great the writing and performances were. A real treasure, with humor and wwll history to boot.

How can you not love these guys.. and odd lady

Any additional comments?

Dad's Army is a often repeated and often enjoyed series. The characters are wonderful and are like everyone's grandad.

I have loved the TV show since I was a young lad and continue to do so now I am much older.

The only downside for me is that these are straight from TV and therefore some of the humor is visual. However, I defy many people not to have seen the episodes and remember them well for this to only be a small downside.

Highly recommended to brighten any dull day. I am still working my way through for when I have a particularly trying day or feel the need for a lift. This is one audio book I go too.
