Hallelujah! - The Complete First Series

Hallelujah! - The Complete First Series

Dame Thora Hird stars in one of her own personal favourite roles as the barmiest woman in the Salvation Army! The Sally Army are in need of some salvation themselves - salvation that is from their own dotty Captain Emily Ridley (Thora Hird).

For over forty-two years, Captain Emily has been in the forefront of the Army's battle against sin and sinners in that modern Sodom and Gomorrah - Yorkshire. She's all fired up with a wild enthusiasm that regular members finda little embarrassing. Now, the top brass at the Salvation Army want her to retire, but Captain Emily isn't quite ready to hang up her tambourine just yet!

First broadcast on Yorkshire Television in 1983, this DVD contains all 7 episodes from the first series.

First released: Monday 3rd January 2005
