'Don't tell him Pike!'
Dom_SathanasRest in piece Ian Lavender AKA Private Pike! The gentle comedy of Dad's Army feels like the echo of a distant age now and will always remind me of being a young boy sitting with my Nana watching her old wooden box-style TV on a Sunday teatime. #DadsArmy #IanLavender

Anthony, of courseApparently Ian Lavender has passed away at the age of 77. We knew it had to happen one day, but I believe that's the last member of the Dad's Army cast. Any death is sad, but this hit right in the feels. RIP #Pike
Carole (Ducky)Ah no! Really sad to see this. He always struck me as a lovely man.

This account has movedSad to hear of the passing of the last surviving main cast member of British comedy, Dad's Army;Ian Lavender who played Pike. . I didn't appreciate that show when very young but as I got older and caught the near endless repeats I got to appreciate how well defined the characters were, how well written it was and how well acted. "Don''t tell him Pike" is so ingrained in the Brit psyche. Up there with Morecambe & Wise with Andre Previn. #UK #DadsArmy #IanLavender

Dad’s Army Sketches, Nico Broekhuis
Dad’s Army Sketches is a charming book filled with fabulous sketches of characters of episodes from Dad’s Army. In his drawings, Nico Broekhuis – the Dutch Drawer – captures the adventures of the memorable characters of the fictional Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard under the inspired leadership of the always active Captain Mainwaring and his laissez-faire second-in-command, Sergeant Arthur Wilson. Huge thanks go to Ms Penny Croft of Worldwide Theatrix Ltd, and Jimmy Perry Productions, who have graciously and kindly allowed Nico Broekhuis the use of quotes and catchphrases from the original scripts. Dad’s Army Sketches takes you on a sentimental journey and a nostalgic trip to times when the world was black and white and the enemy recognisable. Although... remember Mainwaring's clash with the American Colonel Schultz in series six or with the Spanish Captain Rodrigues in series three? Dad’s Army Sketches: the perfect gift for any Dad’s Army lover. And there is more. The Dutch Drawer donates a percentage of his royalties to his favourite charity: the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary.
