A special seasonal edition of David Croft and Jimmy Perry's classic wartime comedy Present Arms 25 December 1974

As the 'season of goodwill' approaches, Captain Mainwaring and his men use their rifles and their wits in a no-holds-barred contest with Captain Square and the Eastgate Platoon.

The prize is the honour of guarding a Very Important Personage. But in the end it is the ingenuity of Private Walker which saves the day.

Present Arms was compiled for radio from two television episodes. Battle of the Giants and Shooting Pains, and was first broadcast as a special Christmas edition on Radio 4 in 1974.

Initially written for television, the Dad's Army series ran to 80 episodes and spawned a film, stage show and long-running radio series.

Audio books really are a wonderful thing, not only do they transport you to other worlds, introduce you to other people’s ideas and culture, they are also a lot more flexible than books. The book drains your time in a world where time is a very valuable thing, in mp3or wma format however; stories can be listened to anywhere and on any music device. It doesn’t matter if you use an mp3 players or a cd player, whether you are jogging, washing the pots or transforming the boring commute to work with excitement and intrigue and you can listen to them at any time.

Now with the internet audiobooks are a lot more accessible and easier to obtain than normal books, going online for them is quick, simple and saves time that would be other wise spend trawling through stores trying to find one you really want.

Many sites offer a few free downloadable introductory titles, to get you started and no doubt hooked on the splendour of them. What better way to spend a Saturday evening than to sit back, relax and enjoy a good audiobook, instead of renting a dvd or stagnating in front of the television. Unlike rentals, they can be kept for life and enjoyed again and again.
