Dad’s Army Comes to Sunday Nights on Brett’s Old Time Radio Show

There is something special about a Sunday night.

The day starts to slow down, the house gets a little quieter, the kettle goes on, and the week ahead begins to creep gently into view. It is the perfect time for something familiar, comforting and wonderfully nostalgic.

That is why Dad’s Army is joining the Sunday night line-up on Brett’s Old Time Radio Show.

Broadcast daily from our cosy corner overlooking the beautiful Lyme Bay coastline in Devon, Brett’s Old Time Radio Show has always been about more than simply playing classic radio. It is about atmosphere, comfort, familiar voices and the timeless magic of storytelling.

For many listeners, the show has become part of the evening routine. A calm companion at the end of the day. A friendly voice before bed. A chance to step away from the noise of modern life and drift back into another era.

And honestly, what could fit a Sunday night better than Dad’s Army?

With Captain Mainwaring, Sergeant Wilson, Corporal Jones, Private Pike and the rest of the Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard, Dad’s Army remains one of Britain’s best-loved comedies. It is gentle, clever, characterful and packed with that unmistakable warmth that made classic British radio and television so memorable.

It brings a slightly different flavour to the usual mix of old time radio mysteries, detective dramas and vintage suspense. Sunday nights now have a touch of classic comedy, wartime nostalgia and beautifully familiar British humour.

That matters, because Brett’s Old Time Radio Show is built around a very simple idea: classic audio still has a place in modern life.

Whether it is a gripping Sherlock Holmes mystery, a tense episode of Suspense, the cool confidence of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar, or now the unmistakable charm of Dad’s Army, these shows offer something that never really goes out of fashion.

They give us stories.They give us voices.They give us atmosphere.And sometimes, they give us exactly the kind of comfort we did not realise we needed.

For anyone who grew up with Dad’s Army, this Sunday night slot will feel like meeting old friends again. For younger listeners discovering it for the first time, it is a wonderful doorway into one of Britain’s most loved comic worlds.

And for those who use Brett’s Old Time Radio Show as part of their night-time wind-down, Dad’s Army offers the perfect end-of-week listen: warm, familiar, funny and easy to settle into.

So make yourself comfortable, put the kettle on, dim the lights, and join Brett for a little Sunday night trip back to Walmington-on-Sea.

Dad’s Army is now part of the Sunday night line-up on Brett’s Old Time Radio Show — daily old time radio, classic mystery, vintage comedy and calm bedtime listening from beautiful Lyme Bay.
