Boxcars711 Old Time Radio Pod - Dad's Army "The King Was In His Counting House" (5-20-75)

The King Was In His Counting House (Aired May 20, 1975)


The unmistakable voice of Bud Flanagan singing 'Who Do You Think You Are Kidding, Mr Hitler?', a cod-Second World War propaganda singalong written especially for the show (by Jimmy Perry), introduced Dad's Army, the zenith of the British broad-comedy ensemble sitcom. Consistently good writing and a wonderful cast of old timers and newer talents combined to produce a whimsical period-piece that continues, justifiably, to be savoured and has now assumed a place in the 'hall of greats' pantheon, adored by new generations of the British public.

THIS EPISODE:
A Bomb hits the strong room of the bank while Mainwaring holds a social event for the platoon at home. Heading for the bank, they rescue the money and proceed with the delicate operation of counting whats left.
