Under Fire is an episode in the British comedy series Dad's Army and was originally transmitted on Saturday 5 April 1969. It is currently missing from the BBC archives, when the master tape was wiped to be used again. However, audio recordings are saved to preserve its existence.
The platoon arrest a suspect agent, who insists on being a British citizen, despite his accent, and the fact that he has a dog called Fritz. He attempts to help them put out a fire in the church hall, and is then found to be Warden Hodges' uncle. He comments that he doesn't know how Britain will win the war, and Wilson agrees.
The radio episode still exists. It was Episode 11 for the 1st radio series.
