EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with the iconic Dad's Army cast as they open The Real Dad's Army exhibition at the Imperial War Museum. In this photo print, we see the beloved characters dressed in their wartime Home Guard costumes, ready to entertain and educate visitors about life during World War II. The 1930s meat van, a relic of old transport, adds an authentic touch to the scene. Captain Mainwaring, portrayed by Arthur Lowe, stands tall and proud as he leads his dedicated team of soldiers. Private Godfrey (Arnold Ridley) exudes warmth and kindness while Sergeant Wilson (John Le Mesurier) displays his trademark charm. Bill Pertwee shines as ARP Warden, bringing a sense of authority to the group. And who could forget Corporal Jones (Clive Dunn), always ready with his hilarious catchphrases? Their camaraderie is palpable even in this frozen moment captured by photographer Stone Peter. However, it seems that even these brave heroes are not immune to mishaps - their trusty meat van has broken down! This unexpected twist only adds to the charm and humor of this snapshot from October 1974. Join us on a journey through history as we celebrate these legendary actors who brought laughter and heart to millions through their timeless portrayal of everyday heroes.
