The Battle of Godfrey's Cottage
Mainwaring and his outfit, convinced that a German invasion has already begun, mount a gun placement at Private Godfrey's cottage. Chaos, inevitably, ensues. This is one of two lost episodes from series two of the classic sitcom found in a skip in 1969 and returned to the 麻豆社 in 2001.
