Thank you Sainsbury`s
Thank you Sainsbury`s.
The Captain was out and about on Sunday morning (8th March) to receive a donation of two mobile phones (what are they I hear you say) for use in the museum and on walking tours. Thank you Sainsbury`s.
Pamela Cundell
The museum was sad to hear the news on Saturday of the death of Pamela Cundell who played Mrs Fox. Pamela came to Thetford in 2010 for the unveiling of the statue and we met her last year at the Bill Pertwee memorial. Our thoughts are with he family.
A frosty captain
It is very cold out there but the captain still sits there looking out over Walmington on Sea. The museum may be closed for the winter break but you can still visit the statue.
There are some more pictures below.
Dad's Army Museum Thetford
Since it opened in December 2007, the Dad's Army Museum has gone from strength to strength. Today thousands of visitors make their way to Thetford (Walmington-on-Sea) each year to see where the series was filmed and to learn more about one of the most enduring comedy programmes ever produced.
News
In December 2012 the Jones's van was acquired at Bonhams auction by the Jenkins and Pearson families at a hammer price of £55,000 (£63,000 with commission) and has now returned 'home' to Walmington on Sea.
