In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn't commit.  These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground.  Today, still wanted by the Government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.  If you have a problem, if no-one else can help and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.  

So started the action series the A-Team, the show in which, despite all the gunfire, nobody was ever hurt!

This is Corgi model CC87502 of the A-Team van together with a hand painted figure of B A Baracus.

Dad's Army

Dad’s Army, written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft, was a BBC sitcom about the Home Guard during the Second World War.  Originally broadcast between 1968 and 1977, it ran for 80 episodes, and although the series over 30 years old it is still regularly on our TV screens. 

The British Home Guard consisted of local volunteers otherwise ineligible for military service, usually owing to age, and as such the series starred several veterans of British film, television and stage, including;

• Arthur Lowe (1915–82), 
• John Le Mesurier (1912–83), 
• Arnold Ridley (also a veteran playwright; 1896–1984)  
• John Laurie (1897–1980). 

Relative youngsters in the regular cast were

•  Ian Lavender (b.1946), 
• Clive Dunn (b.1920), who was made-up to play the elderly Jones,  
• James Beck (1929–1973), the latter dying suddenly part way through the programme’s long run despite being one of the youngest cast members.

The Home Guard platoon was based in the fictional seaside resort of Walmington-on-Sea.  Located on the channel coast, the notional "front line" following the evacuation of Dunkirk.  Based in the Church Hall the platoon guarded the coast and the towns strategic points, such as the Novelty Rock Emporium and the Marigold Tea Rooms.
