with various ailments and age I would get away with it but I would serve in home guard type outfit and if the Russians or whoever was coming up the a500 I would fight to save my home and family but I would not go overseas at all With a nod to Flea's post in the subscripton thread, I started thinking who we could get off here to emulate those famous characters from Warmington on Sea to recreate our own Oatcake Home Guard? I can see a lot of competition for some roles, like Sgt. Wilson, (my own preference being Felonius), with others, like Pvt. Godfrey, being more of a shoe in for the likes of Oldstokie  What are your thoughts? |

Bayern would make an excellent Hodges, despite being on the same side he constantly works against everybody else!
Are we classing the vale as the eastgate platoon?

I volunteer for the North Staffs naval force based at Rudyard and the Caldon canal.
Both strategically important.
As far as the Trent and Mersey is concerned in the ST4 area defence has been a constant problem there for some time and may be impossible.

This is excellent if you've never seen it. Might be on iPlayer.
Some excellent actors taking off the originals and explaining how the series came to life.
