Featured review
Never Too Old
It is the end of an era with the final episode of Dad's Army and it ends with a wedding. Corporal Jones is in love with Mrs Fox and they get married although Jones is left wondering if she did marry him for his meat.
Until then Corporal Jones is on tenterhooks wondering if Mrs Fox will accept his marriage proposal. Captain Mainwaring has been asked to give the bride away.
Sergeant Wilson attends the reception with his World War One uniform. Mainwaring could not help noticing that Wilson was a captain in the war and you just know Mainwaring is put out with that.
As there was a war on, the sumptuous wedding cake turns out to be a fake. The real cake is just a jam sponge.
There is a party atmosphere and it all ends with the platoon breaking the fourth wall and raising a glass to the Home Guard everywhere.
The best moment of the episode belongs to Frazer, reminiscing about the lass he lost up on the clifftop on a windy day when he was a young man. Many years later he got a letter from her, she went to Singapore.
A good moment to call it a day. The cast were not getting any younger, John Le Mesurier looked gaunt and Edward Sinclair died before this episode was broadcast.
A fine farewell to a comedy classic.
