Another classic BBC
comedy series arrives on DVD with "Dad's Army the Christmas
Specials" and features three Christmas episodes from the original
television series. The Dad's Army series revolves around the Home
Guards at Walmington-On-Sea who are old bumbling former military men
that are trying to relive their golden days. Captain Mainwaring,
Corporel Jones and Sergeant Wilson all return in these classic and
memorable episodes. What really makes this compilation special is
the amazing special features that will warm every fan from inside
out. Great stuff!

3. The Love of Three Oranges: As Christmas is coming, the Vicar
