CLIVE DUNN

It would be remiss of us not to take a moment and acknowledge the passing of a comedy great, Clive Dunn. He was in a show called Dads Army and as a youngster I didn't find it funny but now that I am old enough to probably join the Home Guard I find it very amusing. There were many funny scenes with some very fine actors and the two phrases 'dont panic' and 'they don't like it up em' remain two of the very best. Clive died aged 92 which aint bad by any means. We all thought he played a doddery old buthcer turned killing machine very well but in reality he was only 48 when he played Jonesy. I can't believe some soppy dumb TV executive wants to make a new Dads Army film and have Captain Mainwaring played by a woman. No disrespect to the sisterhood but its a bloody stupid idea. There is no way a new Dads Army film should be made.. Interesting fact the Humming Bird is the only bird that can fly backwards!!!
