RIP Ian Lavender

Ian Lavender told a story about how when he joined dads army, he was told to visit the costume dept and there amongst all the various items was the claret and blue scarfe - so he put it on, as he is a life long Aston Villa fan

my wife laughs her head off watching dads army - they werent shown in her country and she has only seen them these past few years (same with monty python !)

its fair to say Ian L has done his bit in entertaining the masses - sleep tight.

Pike: "By the time we finish supper, it's so late, you never leave our house until after I've gone to bed and you're back early for breakfast before I'm awake.

RIP Ian
 
Good time for that Dad’s song… great memories!! I know the kids don’t get it but having three tv channels back then was an amazing experience with the raw energy and excitement one tv show could do for the family. RIP Pike!
 
I can’t think of another British comedy series with so many strong (and very funny) characters in it - they all made it what it was. Ian was last man standing.
RIP Pike
 
Bud Flanagan should be played loud and proud at Ian’s funeral. RIP:
Who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler,
If you think we're on the run?
We are the boys who will stop your little game.
We are the boys who will make you think again.
'Cause who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler,
If you think old England's done?
Mr. Brown goes off to town on the eight twenty-one,
But he comes home each evening and he's ready with his gun.
So who do you think you are kidding Mr. Hitler,
If you think old England's done?
