Dad's Army/Awesome


 * A retroactive example, of sorts. After discovering that Godfrey had been a conscientious objector during the First World War, Mainwaring is somewhat mean to him. He is then highly embarrassed, as.
 * Partly Truth in Television as the actor who played Godfrey was a decorated war hero in WWI.
 * The ease with which Fraser, Jones and Mainwaring go to what they perceive as their certain death to slow down what they think is a German invasion force to give the regular army time to mobilize in The Battle of Godfrey's Cottage is as awesome as it is touching.
 * The Shut UP Hannibal reveal of Mainwaring's talent at playing the bagpipes that comes after a blistering The Reason You Suck Speech from eternal complainer Fraser.
 * Another Mainwaring moment in "Asleep in the Deep".
 * Yet another in the motion picture, in which Mainwaring faces down a Luftwaffe officer while armed only with an unloaded pistol.
 * After spending most of an episode being pushed around, Wilson !
 * The end of the Dad's Army movie where the platoon manage to defeat three german pilots holding a church congregation hostage while the 'regular' forces merely dither.
 * The flashback with Jones in the Sudan, . Hands down one of his finest moments.
