A special seasonal edition of David Croft and Jimmy Perry's classic wartime comedy Present Arms 25 December 1974

As the 'season of goodwill' approaches, Captain Mainwaring and his men use their rifles and their wits in a no-holds-barred contest with Captain Square and the Eastgate Platoon.

The prize is the honour of guarding a Very Important Personage. But in the end it is the ingenuity of Private Walker which saves the day.

Present Arms was compiled for radio from two television episodes. Battle of the Giants and Shooting Pains, and was first broadcast as a special Christmas edition on Radio 4 in 1974.

Initially written for television, the Dad's Army series ran to 80 episodes and spawned a film, stage show and long-running radio series.
