“More than 50 years after Dad’s Army marched on to our TVs, millions are still laughing.”
Channel 5 Documentary: More than 50 years after Dad’s Army marched on to our TVs, millions are still laughing. This documentary tells the stories of the (not so) secret lives behind the characters. (As usual, channel 5 changed the name of this doc to grab more of a punchy headline. ie DAD'S ARMY: SECRET LIVES & SCANDAL. But watch the original titles and notice that they never use the word scandal.)

To mark the recent thirtieth anniversary of Sergio Leone’s death, this documentary sets out to pay tribute to one of the great legends of world cinema. The singular artistic vision of Sergio Leone has transcended national borders, creating the Spaghetti Western genre and transforming the international cinematic panorama forever with his innovative stylistic and narrative solutions, which have now become part of the language of the movies. The film, which is enriched with precious archive footage from the Cineteca di Bologna, including rare audio recordings and film clips shot behind the scenes, sees for the first time the direct participation of the Leone family and has interviews both with Leone’s longtime collaborators and with icons of Hollywood who have been profoundly influenced by his work.

This documentary focuses on the actors and their journey over two summers to create the remake to the original IT, by Stephen King. The documentary originally released as bonus material, bundled with IT: Chapter Two.
