EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with the iconic cast of TV programme Dad's Army, as they don their costumes for the grand opening of The Real Dad's Army exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. In this print captured by Stone Peter, we see the beloved characters brought to life once again. At the forefront stands Captain Mainwaring, portrayed brilliantly by Arthur Lowe, exuding authority and determination. Alongside him is Corporal Jones, played by Clive Dunn, showcasing his trademark enthusiasm and eccentricity. Private Godfrey, expertly portrayed by Arnold Ridley, adds a touch of warmth and gentleness to the group. Sergeant Wilson (John Le Mesurier) stands tall beside ARP Warden Bill Pertwee while pushing a butchers van - a nod to their roles in keeping wartime Britain fed amidst chaos. The backdrop features an old war uniform and a vintage van that transports us straight into the heart of 1970s nostalgia. This photograph was taken in October 1974 during an era when comedy television shows like Dad's Army were cherished for their wit and charm. It serves as a delightful reminder of how these talented actors brought joy to millions through their impeccable performances. Memory Lane Prints invites you to relive this golden age of entertainment with our collection featuring this remarkable snapshot from history.
