Items related to Dad's Army
When we laugh at Dad's Army we laugh at ourselves, and more than 30 years after it was first broadcast, millions of us are still laughing—whenever and wherever it is repeated. With contributions from the people who planned, produced, and performed in the sitcom, and material drawn from the BBC archives, acclaimed author Graham McCann has written the definitive story of a very British comedy. This is the story of a classic British sitcom and its enduring appeal.

About the Author:
Graham McCann is a lecturer in Social and Political Theory at Kings College, Cambridge. His previous books include: Marilyn Monroe: The Body in the Library (1988); Woody Allen: New Yorker (1990); Rebel Males: Clift, Brando & Dean; Morecambe and Wise (also published by Fourth Estate), and a recent study of Theodore Adorno for Blackwells.
Review:
'A hugely entertaining read.' Daily Telegraph 'A splendid new "biography" of the comedy.' Observer 'I knew I would enjoy Graham McCann's book because he started exactly where I would have started: with the best joke a British sitcom has yet devised.' Roland White, Sunday Times 'Excellent. All but essential.' Omer Ali, Time Out 'More than a showbiz yarn. McCann's engaging book pays homage to the great catchlines ("They don't like it up 'em") and the great punchlines ("Don't tell him, Pike!").' Jonathan Sale, Independent 'Irresistible.' John Dugdale, Literary Review
