'The Army Game' of hut 29, Nether Hopping transit camp.
Mediocre at times, this comedy show finally launched several comedians on to greater things. Fun to watch, at times.
Cpl Springer - Michael Medwin. Pte 'Excused Boots' Bisley - Alfie Bass. Pte 'Cupcake' - Norman Rossington. Pte 'Popeye' Poppelwell - Bernard Bresslaw. Pte 'Professor' Hatchett - Charles Hawtrey. Sgt Major Bullimore - William Hartnell. Major Upshot-Bagley - Geoffrey Sumner. CSM Claude Snudge - Bill Fraser. Pte Bone - Ted Lune. Cpl 'Flogger' Hoskins - Harry Fowler. L/Cpl Ernest 'Moosh' Merryweather - Mario Fabrizi. Pte 'Chubby' Catchpole - Dick Emery.
In truth, the comedians were far, far better than the show, enbling them to go on to far better comedy shows.
From 1957 to 1961.
