Dad's Army: Series 4, Episode 5 - Don't Fence Me In - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)
The platoon replace the resident guards at Walmington's local prison-of-war camp. The fact that the camp is full of Italians instead of Germans makes the job less appealing, but things become more interesting when it is suspected that Walker is helping the prisoners to escape.
