BBC News - Dad's Army co-writer David Croft dies at the age of 89

David Croft is now late.

[BA to the Stars]

Produced lots of the classic BBC stuff - most of it based on his & Jimmy Peery's actual experiences e.g. Hi-De-Hi.

Dads Army - a timeless classic

RIP

Dads Army - a timeless classic

Agreed; the "don't tell him Pike" scene is right up there with the Fools and horses chandelier scene or Julie Walters "Two Soups".

How many of todays "comedy" shows will be condidered 'classics' and still be enjoyed 40 years from now?

Very talented guy.

RIP
