In 1967 actor Jimmy Perry shows his friend David Croft the script of a sitcom he has written based on his time in the Home Guard, entitled 'Fighting Tigers'. Head of BBC TV comedy Michael Mills likes it, changing its title to 'Dad's Army' though, to Jimmy 's dismay, he refuses to let him act in it. He commissions Jimmy and David to write a whole series, despite TV controller Paul Fox's misgivings that the Second World War is too fresh in people's mind to be comedic. The pilot goes ahead with an ensemble cast keen to perform despite a low wage and some with problems of their own, notably star Arthur Lowe's tendency to forget his lines, and Jimmy is thrilled that wartime favourite Bud Flanagan is performing its theme song. In April 1968 the first show is recorded in front of an enthusiastic test audience. Fox is less generous in his opinion but the viewing figures ensure the show's future, running for nine series and becoming one of the best-loved of all British television sitcoms.
MHeap在演Clive Dunn，可愛！！此片平鋪直敘，伴隨溫文爾雅的節奏和復古色調凸顯的年代感，不光是講述經典喜劇的誕生，也講述一位編劇如何接受自身的才能，甘願退居幕後的心路歷程。後段編劇Jimmy Perry在錄音室聽著主題曲被唱誦而出時，我也跟著眼眶泛淚了。編劇David對編劇Jimmy投以的笑容好溫暖啊
一个不得志的演员写了剧本，一个不得志的导演想要抓住机会，一群不太好搞的老演员。几乎没有人在最初就看好这部剧，连test反馈都那么差。好在两位主创信念坚定，又会耍赖，谢谢你们。
"Comedy is about more than laughing. Comedy defines this generation. Wit, irony, humanity in the face of the impossible. Everyone who lived through it will understand it and those who didn't."
