A third volume featuring four of the very best episodes from the evergreen radio series, starring Arthur Lowe, John Le Mesurier and Clive Dunn.
Diehard Dad’s Army fan Phill Jupitus has chosen four of his favourite episodes of the sitcom that captured the heart of the nation.
In addition, he has written an introduction explaining just what makes these four episodes great:
"To try and pick the best episodes from over sixty recorded for radio has at moments seemed an almost impossible task. The excellent standards of writing, performing and production in remain incredibly consistent throughout So all you can do is have a go. I dare say that the results would have been just as satisfying if I'd picked a dozen randomly out of a hat, and how many shows can you say that of? There are episodes here you will be familiar with and some you may never have heard, but what I can promise is they are all achingly funny. Please enjoy." Phill Jupitus
Providing stalwart support to the stars are John Laurie, James Beck, Arnold Ridley, Ian Lavender and Bill Pertwee.
