DAD'S ARMY WHEN ARE YOU COMMING TO REGION 1? November 23, 2008
I have been searching for years now and found Dad's Army (the complete collection) but to only find it is for a different region. WHY, WHY, WHY do they do this? The only thing that has been available to us in region 1 was a small collection a few years ago and I have been waiting and I'm sure thousands of other Dad's Army fans have been waiting as well. Come on now stop doing this, I have a recommendation...."ALL MOVIES, TV SHOWS, ETC MADE BEFORE 1979 SHOULD BE RELEASED IN A REGION FREE FOR ANY COUNTRY TO BUY" why "punish" us all for the show from a long time ago
A fantastic collection November 17, 2008

This is the ultimate collection of the 'Dad's Army' TV series and it is all you could ask for.Featuring every single available episode and also several extras I really don't know how it could be improved upon.
Of course some episodes are better than others but when you realise just how many episodes were written the quality and consistancy of the writing is amazing.This box set also includes the three Christmas specials.Quite simply this is classic comedy at it's best and it just has to be awarded maximum marks.Fabulous and well worth spending your cash on.

I've been very pleasantly surprised by this box set. Having read other reviews, which suggested the set was short on extras, I took the plunge as I did not previously have any Dad's Army DVDs and had probably not seen all the shows. Whilst it is true that there are not extras on every disc, there is more than enough to justify the release.
So far I've found 7 individual short features on the main stars, entitled 'We Are The Boys'. They are spread across the first 13 discs, as are several picture galleries. These shorts feature interviews with surviving cast members as well as Jimmy Croft and David Perry.
The real magic is to be found on the final disc, which is only advertised as 'The Christmas Specials', but which contains around ten shorts, including long forgotten Blue Peter appearances, Road Safety films, sketches, a Noel Coward Review and more. There's also another photo gallery and an article from the Radio Times.
I have no idea if all this content was previously available on the individual releases and best of compilations, but it provides a very welcome bonus to round off one of the finest situation comedies ever.
Ok so there's no commentaries, but does anyone really need to have the minutiae of this great show explained to them? Buy the box set, take a week off work and enjoy! Finally I'd like to say I never doubted the content of this box set, I knew it would be great right from the off and I said so.

The fact that this has all the surviving episodes of Dads army is worth the 5 stars. Its a shame only 3 episodes of series 2 are there but that is because the other episdoes were lost by the BBC. There are small special features the compliment the episodes. Overall, its brilliant
