What is your name? Olivia  - How old are you? 20 - Where are you from? Leitrim, Ireland - Are you male or female? female - How did you find this forum? Google - How long have you been a fan of Dad's Army? How did you discover it, etc? As I was growing up my Mam and Dad would always be excited when it was on and it was an occasional treat as it was never on too often. I guess I ended up watching and enjoying most of the older comedies through my Mum especially. She introduced me to Dad's Army, Porridge, Only Fools, Open all hours, Are You Being Served?, Keeping up Appearances, Allo Allo, The Two Ronnies etc - What are your most favourite eipsodes? Well I haven't seen every episode, I've ordered the series collection but so far Sgt, Wilson's little secret, and Getting the bird were hilarious, keep young and beautiful is quite good too!! and the one where the platoon dress up as Nazis. - Who are your favourite characters? Pike, Wilson, Mainwaring, Walker, Godfrey,Mrs. Pike, lol it's hard to choose!! - What is your favourite Croft and Perry Series? This one!! - Have you any suggestions for the forum or for Dave Homewood's website's Dad's Army section? Not really, I think it's a brilliant forum!!So glad to have found one  None of my friends understand the brilliance of the series!!

Hello Dave and everyone on the site. Dave you might recognise my name from Britmovie where I followed the link to your site.
Favorite character from Dads army is Walker.
I don`t know when I first discovered Dads army, it`s kinda always been there for me. Always had a thing for James Beck lol so this is an ideal site for me. I am also interested in the other info on other programmes like you rang m`lord, another of my favorite shows.
Thanks,
Michelle xx

Hi Michelle,
Welcome to the forum!
Do you have a favourite episode? Most of us find that an impossible question as there are so many great ones to choose from :-)

Hello. Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. Much appriciated  Katie, I am soooo impressed by your Jimmy Beck webside!  It is hard to pick a favorite episode Molly but `A. Wilson (manager?)` `The Deadly attachment`, and`Turkey dinner` have to be in the running for me. I hope to contribute as much as I can but feeling a bit of a novice compared to some fans on here I must admit. I am gathering so much info from you all already ;D Michelle xx
