An under the counter exclusive Walker's Dodgy IPA didn't just fall off the back of a lorry, someone had to push it.
The special recipe with a distinctive aroma is a bit on the shady side.
An unofficial brew that's exclusive cos you you can't get it in the shops.

An old wrinkled & original photo of the Dad's Army cast, crew, director and writers. Episode is probably "Round And Round Went the Great Big Wheel"

"Just a minute....you're wearing the Military Medal?"
#DadsArmy 'Branded.'
"You'd sell your own grandmother, wouldn't you?!"
'Well...there's no market for her...'

Today it's the turn of James Beck to feature in this series of Dad's Army Trump cards.
He died far too young, and was much missed as the cheeky cockney spiv Private Joe Walker.
He could get you anything you want, if you know what I mean.
