It's 70 years since the formation of Britain's Home Guard and they've been remembered at a special event at Osterley Park in Middlesex. The park was used as their training site, where the real "Dad's Army" learned guerilla warfare tactics and the art of making explosives. The park's played host to a weekend of re-enactments, and an archeological dig to see what the Home Guard left behind. Plus Richard Hunt and Ralph Harvey - from the 23rd Sussex Home Guard a group that pays tribute to them - visit us here at BFBS HQ.
