Which is your favourite Dad's Army episode?

My favourite episode is 'The Day the Balloon Went Up' from season three. I love love seeing Mainwering get caught on the balloon, and his troops trying to shoot him down. I also think the music to that scene is brilliant.

The one with Mainwaring's estranged brother!

I don't remember that one.

They are all so wonderful that I find it hard to choose. I doubt there will ever be another show with such a brilliant ensemble cast and magical writing. It is pure comedy genius.

It really is British comedy at its best. It can be difficult to give all the characters proper development when there are so many, but they really pulled it off.

dont know name of episode but they actually captured some Germans & the German captain was writing down names of the men if he didnt like the way he was treated, threatening retribution when Germany won the war. Pike was very worried.....

Is that the one where he says 'you're name will go on the list', and Mainwering says, 'don't tell him Pike.'?

Thats it!!! LOL

When the young, not so bright Corporal found out who his REAL father was!
