Wyatt's Watchdogs

Does anybody remember this 1990's sitcom starring the just dead brilliant actor Brian Wilde. It also had Trevor Bannister in it (Mr Lucas in Are you Being Served). Wilde played a charactor very similar to Foggy, a charactor he played in 'Last of the Summer Wine' Here he plays Major Wyatt, in charge of a neighbour-hood watch group. Just like Foggy, he is absolutely incompotant, but he does his best. Not seen an episode, but the theme-tune is on youtube:

It looks really funny and would love to watch a full episode, hopefully it may become subject to a DVD release. I really rate Wilde, he's a great pompous charactor. Always reminds me of Arthur Lowe for some reason.
