Dad’s Army Film

The film was of course not shot in Thetford but is very popular.The museum team travelled to Wymondham in Norfolk to see the film being shown in the wonderful setting of the former Regal cinema.It was a very busy afternoon and we told lots of people about the museum.Special guest of Honour was Frank Williams,who played the vicar in both the TV series and film.He gave a great interviews,telling the audience about his acting career.The afternoon also included the showing of the Green Cross information film made the cast,some home footage of the show on location and some old wartime information films.
