Featured review
I awaited these three episodes with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, as I am a massive fan of the original series, and was monumentally disappointed with the 2016 film effort. But from that to this I can see the problem - the 2016 film wasn't written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft, while these were, which is why I shouldn't have worried. Yes, the cast are obviously understudies (as they described themselves), but they mostly do very well in finding the characters as we would recognise them, with special credit to Robert Bathurst. It's not a 10/10, but it's as close as it can be. I'm very pleased that, in lieu of the original episodes being found somewhere, we do at least have these that we can go to and (to an extent) now watch the entire series of Dad's Army
