Dad's Army has hit the big screen in the UK this morning and is set to be one of the must-see films this weekend.
Dad's Army
The movie is inspired by the much-loved television series and sees Oliver Parker back in the director's chair. He has brought us movies such as St Trinian's, Dorian Gray, and St Trinian's 2: The Legend of Fritton's Gold during his career, but this is his first feature since Johnny English Reborn back in 2011.
If you are heading out to see the film this weekend, we have a trio of great clips to whet your appetite. Check them out:
Dad's Army boasts one of the most impressive cast lists of 2016 as Toby Jones, Bill Nighy, Tom Courtenay, Michael Gambon, Bill Paterson, Danny Mays, and Blake Harrison star as Captain Mainwaring, Wilson, Jones, Godfrey, Frazer, Walker, and Pike. Catherine Zeta-Jones, Mark Gatiss, Sarah Lancashire, and Alison Steadman complete a terrific line-up of talent.
It is 1944 and World War II is reaching its climax. The Allies are poised to invade France and finally defeat the German army. But in Walmington-on-Sea morale amongst the Home Guard is low. Their new mission then - to patrol the Dover army base - is a great chance to revive spirits and reputation, that is until glamorous journalist Rose Winters arrives to write about their exploits, setting the pulses racing and putting the local women on red alert.
MI5 then discover a radio signal sent direct to Berlin from Walmington-on-Sea. There's a spy on the loose! The outcome of the war is suddenly at stake, and it falls to our unlikely heroes to stand up and be counted.
Dad's Army is out now.
