Bill Pertwee, Warden Hodges from TV's 'Dad's Army' is back to teach you everything you need to know to survive the Blitz, cope with the trials of rationing and make the very best of life on the Home Front! If you want to do your bit to confound the Hun, The Warden will show you how to organise your own Fire Guard, use your gas mask effectively and keep roads clear for the chaps in the emergency services, using rare and previously unavailable public information films and cinema newsreels of the time. If you're thrown into a tizzy by the Luftwaffe raids, here's invaluable advice on precisely what to do in an air raid and how to spot and identify unexploded bombs afterwards. Lucky Jerry builds plenty of duds! You'll learn how to save energy on the Kitchen Front with the aid of the Fuel Wizard, turn scrap rubber and paper into weapons against the Goosesteppers, raise pigs and hens for victory and 'make do and mend' your wardrobe. And if you're thinking of venturing out of your Anderson Shelter, think twice! The Warden poses the question 'is your journey really necessary' and warns of the hidden menace of the 'Transport Hog'. Take the Warden's advice and do your bit to beat the Bosch! And remember 'careless talk costs lives!'
