[edit] ARTHUR LOWE

A biography of Arthur Lowe, the legendary Captain Mainwaring of TV's 'Dad's Army', one of the best-loved characters ever to have appeared on British TV screens. Lowe's hold on the public's imagination and affection is as strong as ever despite his death as far back as 1982.

Amazingly, no one has written a proper biography of Arthur Lowe, the legendary Captain Mainwaring of TV's Dad's Army, one of the best-loved characters ever to have appeared on British TV screens. Although Arthur Lowe died eighteen years ago, his hold on the public's imagination and affection is as strong as ever. On 28 May 2001 - repeated on 30 July - BBC1 screened a 90-minute tribute. Lowe became an actor when he was a sergeant fighting in the North African desert during WW2 after helping one of his officers build a theatre in Alexandria - the officer in question is still alive and had been interviewed for the book. Lowe's character and career are fascinating, as is his relationship with his alcoholic wife. Graham Lord is regarded as one of the best biographers of popular characters. His previous two books have both been bestsellers.
