The cast of Dads Army taking part in a charity cricket match at Hayfield in Derbyshire.
The right way to enjoy the match especially on a warm summers afternoon when you are fielding and in your eighties is to sit on the boundary like Arnold Ridley and let the younger members of the cast do the running

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photo print, we are transported back to the 1970s as we witness the beloved cast of Dads Army participating in a charity cricket match at Hayfield in Derbyshire. The image captures the essence of camaraderie and timeless entertainment that made this iconic British sitcom so cherished by audiences. As the warm summer sun shines down on the field, we see the legendary actors taking a break from their usual roles to engage in some friendly competition. Amongst them is Arnold Ridley, known for his portrayal of Private Godfrey, who wisely chooses to enjoy the match from a comfortable spot on the boundary line. With his eighties gracefully etched upon him, he leaves it to younger members of the cast to do all the running. This snapshot not only showcases these talented individuals outside their fictional world but also highlights their commitment towards charitable causes. It reminds us that even those who have brought us endless laughter on screen can come together for a greater purpose off-screen. John Walker's expertly captured photograph allows us to relive an era when classic television shows like Dads Army united families around their screens. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times and brings forth feelings of warmth and joy associated with summer afternoons spent enjoying both sport and entertainment alike.
