I'm just watching a repeat of the great comedy series. It is still as fresh as it was the first time I saw it. At the moment, Mainwaring is dreaming of sharing a toasted cheese sandwich with the clippie on the bus coming back from the cinema.
I'm afraid I haven't been able to bring myself to go to the cinema for the ltest offering which sounds like an impersonation of the original. Am I missing anything or am I right to keep the original sacred?

hiya.. Just watched it myself and brill! Know what you mean about the film. I think you just have to let the old actors go and start afresh. Not seen it yet |

"The gentleman who wrote this used to be my next door neighbour lovely man!
I won't go to see it. Might catch it on TV when it comes on."
I meant the original dads army not the movie |

I have great memories of watching Dad's Army. I'd go round and watch it with my Grandad (the reruns in the 90s/00s). He'd say the 'stupid boy' catchphrase whenever I said or did anything daft!
One of my favourites moments is Frazer's story about the old, empty barn!
Not seen the film, but heard good things about it. |

Loved Dad's Army as a child. we saw the film recently and they have done a good job of recreating the characters.
Storyline a bit daft but worth a watch. |

Don't go, we went and the best we can describe it is: "it was okay" nothing special and not a match on the original, after watching it at cinema, the following week we bought the old original dads army movie on dvd for £2 and it is 100% better and far more laughs |
