Captain Mainwaring and his comrades are to feature on a new set of stamps to mark the 50th anniversary of the classic TV sitcom Dad's Army.
The much-loved characters from the BBC comedy of the 1960s and 70s are featured alongside their catchphrases.
Philip Parker of Royal Mail, hoped they would "raise plenty of smiles".
Ian Lavender, who played Pte Pike in the series, said it was "overwhelming" to be featured on a stamp. They'll be available from 26 June.
Cpl Jones, Pte Walker, Pte Frazer and Pte Godfrey also feature in the set of eight stamps.

The Old Sod's Army has 5 vacancies for few more in the ranks as shown above. Us three need recruits. Must have seen the famous five play. Stevens, Robson, Jezzard, Haynes and Mitten. All could have played for England on the same day.
Thank you and good night stand easy.
