Video: Getting nostalgic with Dad's Army cast

The stars of the new Dad's Army film, Toby Jones and Catherine Zeta Jones, have said they grew up watching the show on TV.

The film, directed by Oliver Parker, moves the Dad's Army story to May 1944 as the Allies prepare to invade occupied Europe.

Toby Jones takes on the role plays Captain Mainwaring and Catherine Zeta Jones plays a glamorous journalist who arrives in Walmington-on-Sea to write about the Home Guard.

Cast members Sir Tom Courtenay, Sir Michael Gambon, Bill Paterson, Blake Harrison and Daniel Mays tell entertainment correspondent Tim Masters their memories of filming in Bridlington.

The dimension-leaping psychedelic comedy concludes, with George Webster's frequently baffled stoner Milo becoming separated from Danny (Blake Harrison) and finding himself perilously stranded in a disintegrating world. As the situation gets increasingly tasty, he seeks shelter from the advancing angry mob in a police station. Turns out this is a mistake. Once reunited, he and Danny find themselves on trial for some outlandish crimes. Both ex

Tripped is a new E4 comedy drama that focuses on two friends and a number of multiple dimensions. Tripped's lead characters are stoner Milo (George Webster) and his more responsible friend Danny (Blake Harrison) who has recently got engaged to girlfriend Kate (Georgina Campbell). Danny's decision to choose a work colleague over Milo as his best man leads to him getting stoned and then confused when a bearded version of his friend arrives in his front room warning him of various dangers. There begins a rather confusing first episode which plays like Quantum Leap meets Harold and Kumar as Danny and Milo start to play with time travel. The first alternate universe they encounter sees Danny become Kate's stalker and Milo welcoming the return of his dead grandmother however things get weird when she starts to come on to him. I did have high hopes for Tripped due to the fact that its co-written by The Missing's Jack and Harry Williams alongside Jamie Mathieson who has written for a number of different sci-fi shows. Unfortunately I never really got on board with Tripped as its key concept never appealed to me and its characters were rather one-dimensional. Although I liked the idea of two friends bonding together after several years apart, everything about the relationship between Danny and Milo was a little clichéd. Similarly I felt that the wonderful Georgina Campbell was once again wasted in the thankless girlfriend role just like she was in Sky One's After Hours. On the plus side I do feel that this is the first successful post-Inbetweeners vehicle for Blake Harrison after the disastrous Edge of Heaven and Big Bad World. George Webster is also a promising talent however I don't think he and Harrison shared much chemistry which hindered the majority of the story. Whilst I'm sure Tripped will find an audience, sadly I won't be one of them as I found it a rather lacklustre execution of a promising premise.

Cheerful stoner Milo (George Webster) and Danny (Blake Harrison) are best chums, but Danny is moving on, with a job in pet insurance and wedding to plan with fiancee Kate (Georgina Campbell). Fortuitously, the pair are thrown back together when another Danny from a parallel universe turns up dressed in futuristic leathers in Milo's living room, followed by a sword-wielding psychopath bent on murdering them both. It's complicated. But clever, funny and poignant, too. Think Highlander meets Spaced meets Doctor Who.

Blake Harrison: There isn't going to be Inbetweeners 3

If you were still holding out hope for a third Inbetweeners film, then it's probably best to let that dream die - because according to Blake Harrison (who played the idiotic Neil in the E4 series and accompanying films) it's just not happening.

Blake Harrison almost turned down Dad's Army movie

The upcoming Dad's Army film has a star-studded cast and a great comedic pedigree - but that nearly wasn't enough for Blake Harrison, who was concerned that his character, the simple-minded Private Pike, was too similar to his famously dim-witted Neil in The Inbetweeners.

Having shot movies in Crete and Australia, the cringeworthy clique will be making waves on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius to ­celebrate the marriage of Blake Harrison, who plays dopey but lovable Neil ­Sutherland.
