The final episode of "Dad's Army" was broadcast on Remembrance Sunday 1977, so this was also the year that World Distributors produced their sixth and final annual.

Again an excellent cover design, even if the image of Arthur Lowe had already graced two previous covers, it was nice to see the annual bow out on a high point, (several other anuals based on successful TV series have being well noted other the years as poorly illustrated!).

The Price this year had increased over double than it usually did (25p), but still quite a bargain! (My copy was nevermore so - my mother found it on a post -Christmas shopping trip to Asda reduced to 25p!)
