Dad's Army night on BBC2

[reinganum]

What was Jimmy Perry's favourite episode (shown at 8 pm Sat Aug 2)? I only caught the end of this one, and didn't recognize it. (David Croft chose "Mum's Army" (Series 4, episode 9) which was shown at 9.30).

The one at 8pm was about Godfrey wanting to leave the platoon because he did not feel he could ever kill anyone.

Mainwairing interviewed him and Godfrey admitted he had been conscientious objector in the first world war so the platoon began to shun him.

Later they were doing an exercise about saving people from a burning building and Mainwairing got trapped in the building, and Godfrey saved him.

The whole platoon went to Godfreys house to thank him, and saw a picture of him in uniform on the wall and found out he had been in the medical section during the first world war and had won the military medal so everybody decided Godfrey was a hero after all.

Seems it is called Branded from series 3

Many thanks! For some reason, I am not so familiar with this particular series (Series 3).
