(BBC 1968–77) One of the most endearing of TV comedy series, following the exploits of a platoon in the *Home Guard. The pompous platoon commander, Captain Mainwaring, constantly struggling to assert his authority over his shambling band of incompetents, was played by Arthur Lowe; and his long-suffering deputy, Sergeant Wilson, by John Le Mesurier.
