[edit] Discussion

Quite a short article, for a british comedian with a #1, surely? Ojw 19:11, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Nonsense

Because of callous reverts this article no longer makes sense - the paragraph starting 'In fact' only makes sense if the previous edit which included comments about Dunn's and Lowe's political beliefs is left in.

Incidentally, the rows between the actors are listed in Dad's Army, The Story of a Classic Television Show by Graham McCann ISBN 1841153095, and this should be added and the original edit reinstated 88.109.65.115 03:05, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, the above edit was by me, but no logged-in! Gretnagod 03:06, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pound bottle of wine

I can believe cheap plonk may even now only cost a quid in Portugal (I've never seen such cheap alcohol as in the Iberian peninsula) but this has nothing to do with Clive Dunn, which is why I keep removing it from this article. What has cheap bottles of plonk to do with Dunn. Might as well say Jonhn Cleese now lives in the land of the cheap hamburger, SqueakBox 15:02, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

OK, this might be hard to argue with. But I think it is worth pointing out the obvious differences between the UK and Portugal that might help explain why Mr Dunn chooses to live there rather than return to his Cockney routes. Gretnagod 02:10, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
That paragraph could be interpreted as him living in Portugal with all the other Dad's Army cast mentioned. Perhaps the last two sentences should be in a new paragraph. --jmb (talk) 14:22, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
