Watched last night remember watching this a child back in the 70s never realising back in the 70s a lot of British sitcoms were made into movies not all were great movies and some were. This one is probably my favourite of them all takes the plot of the show and expand it to 90 min movie all the characters are there from the pompous mainwarning played by Arthur Lowe to corporal jones played by Clive Dunn some of the humour is outdated this is the 1970s. Overall good laugh

Theme tune
Don't tell him pike
One of my favourite sitcoms classic comedy gold even after 50 years it hasn't lost any of its charm
Arthur Lowe is perfectly cast as the pompous bank manager captain mainwaring no one else should else could play him so well and the rest of the cast is perfect not forgetting the theme tune sang by Budd Flannigan is just right. For the show one of my favourite episodes has to be the deadly attachment with the classic line don't tell him pike still makes laugh after all these years highly recommend comedy
