Out by a day, but such is life.
2018 was the 50th anniversary of a UK BBC sit-com. Called "Dad's Army". It was devised around the formation of a military force made up of men too young and old for conscription.
Was a popular programme, and of its day.
One of its best episode was "The deadly attachment". The plot isn't too important, the platoon has to guard a captured U-Boat crew. It does have some of the best one-liners, and a UK actor that probably isn't known outside.
His name is Philip Madoc, sadly gone, did a lot of tv, and usually played a sem-heavy/villan. Shows he does a good comedy act here.
One thing that has always intrigued me is how good is his German accent?
Action starts at 11:24, German at 14:10 and 14:55.
