I did not know that Dad's Army was popular in the USA. I can remember watching it when it came out when I was a kid. Still enjoy the repeats.

Well I'm from the UK so I grew up with the re-runs. It may have attained popularity via BBC TV being broadcast in the US. It may also be popular with members of this august forum given the regular appearance of a certain firearm.

Sadly, no. Enfield's haven't been a priority of late. But that will change.
