Оглавление‘SOMETHING NASTY IN THE VAULT’
Mainwaring and Wilson are stuck in the bank’s strong room. There has been an air raid and they’ve ended up holding an unexploded bomb. Pike arrives.
PIKE: Uncle Arthur?
WILSON: Oh, what it is, Frank?
PIKE: Do you think I ought to phone mum and tell her you’re holding a bomb?
WILSON: No!
PIKE: But she might get cross if she found out that you’d been holding a bomb and she wasn’t told about it.
Memories…
‘In a way, Ian Lavender was playing a young person similar to me in the Home Guard. But what we really wanted was a soppy boy. When you have a lot of old men, it’s funny to have a young person amongst them; it makes for a lot of humour.’
JIMMY PERRY
Memories…
‘I have fond memories of “The Day The Balloon Went Up” and remember marching across a field holding on to the barrage balloon with strict instructions not to wind the cord around our hands because if the balloon did escape, we’d have been pulled up with it. David [Croft] said: “If you can’t hold the cord, why don’t you put your hands together as if you’re in prayer.” It was a funny moment.’
