The series follows the exploits of a Royal Artillery Concert Party during the Second World War. Created by David Croft and Jimmy Perry, it seemed a natural follow-up to their smash hit Dads Army. Another ensemble piece, it drew on both writers wartime experience in India and set the action in Deolali: a British army camp 100 miles north-east of Bombay where everyones gone a bit doolally.The concert party is a rag-tag collection of soldiers whod rather sing, dance and drag up to entertain the troops than be sent forward to the front line. Characters include effeminate drag artist Gunner Gloria Beaumont (Melvyn Hayes); the diminutive Gunner Lofty Willie Sugden (Don Estelle) who possesses a hauntingly beautiful singing voice and ineffectual Colonel Reynolds (Donald Hewlett). However, the shows stand-out personality is the bombastic, eye-rolling Battery Sergeant Major Williams (Windsdor Davies).r r Actors Melvyn Hayes, Christopher Mitchell, Windsor Davies, Donald Hewlett, Michael Bates, Don Estelle, Babar Bhatti, George Layton, Dino Shafeek, Mike Kinsey, Nik Zaran and Dino ShafeekDirector David Croft, John Kilby, Phil Bishop, Graeme Muir, Bob Spiers and Ray ButtCertificate 12 years and overYear 1974 - 1981Languages EnglishRegion Region 2 - Will only play on European Region 2 or multi-region DVD players.
