RIP - Ian Lavender

[Didcot Stokie]

Dad's Army actor's name will live on because of 'Don't tell him' line

The Dad's Army actor will be remembered thanks to a famous comedy scene, says museum boss.

Sad news as the last surviving regular cast member of Dad's Army passes away. Love that series and it seems timeless given it is set in another era so doesn't seem to age like comedies from the 70s, 80s & 90s have in some cases.

I still watch Dads Army and listen to the old radio shows and they still amuse me. It’s a shame they’re all gone but I guess they were knocking on a bit.
I always wondered whether Pike was Villa, West Ham or Burnley…

Villa fans seem to think Pike/Ina Lavender was a Villa fan

Villa fans seem to think Pike/Ina Lavender was a Villa fan

I watched the Villa Chelea cup game and they commented on his death before the game. He was indeed a Villa fan.
