  1. Just seen the two oddest tattoos I’ve ever seen. Mountain biker had John Le Mesurier on his left calf and Arthur Lowe on his right calf. Both in costume as their respective characters from Dad’s Army. Really photorealistic tats as well, covering the full calf.

  2. Someone mentioned #DadsArmy on mastodon recently, and i cannot get Mainwaring’s voice out of my head 😆

    a scene where a german spy is trying to get information, and asks Pike “what is your name:, and capt mainwaring — always determined to make the best of a situation, and always in command mode, snaps “Don’t tell him, Pike!

    You can discount the UK - Starmer makes Capt Mainwaring look competent.

  4. When I was a lad, repeats of Dadʼs Army did come on in the afternoon. Nothing has changed, although itʼs the afternoon in the UK. #TV #DadsArmy #Gold

  5. The last of Dads Army (Ian Lavender) has died, the 'Pike' in "Don't tell them your name, Pike!"

  6. Well, this ages me. Ian Lavender, who played Pike in the English tv series, Dad's Army, has died at the age of 77. He was the last remaining member of the original cast, so now they are all gone. I loved that show growing up!

  8. CW: Comedy actor death reflections

    Sad to hear of the passing of the last surviving main cast member of British comedy, Dad's Army;Ian Lavender who played Pike. . I didn't appreciate that show when very young but as I got older and caught the near endless repeats I got to appreciate how well defined the characters were, how well written it was and how well acted. "Don''t tell him Pike" is so ingrained in the Brit psyche. Up there with Morecambe & Wise with Andre Previn. #UK #DadsArmy #IanLavender

  9. As (hopefully) the sun goes down on yet another corrupt Tory Govt, they’re turning on each other like rats in a sack.
    Marvellous.
    They Don’t like it Up Em, Mr Mainwaring, They don’t like it Up Em

  11. Do you think I might be excused? I forgot about the #emergencyalert and when it went off I’m afraid I had a bit of an accident.
