“I only arsked!”
A colossal success in its day, THE ARMY GAME featured the humorous shenanigans of a mismatched bunch of National Service conscripts assigned to the Surplus Ordnance Department at Nether Hopping. The series – which ran for 154 episodes over five years – featured the talents of William Hartnell, Alfie Bass, Charles Hawtrey, Bernard Bresslaw, Bill Fraser and Dick Emery and, after the first episode in June 1957, rapidly became a national phenomenon (spawning a spin-off series, movies and even a hit single!).
