Wedding bells ring for Cissie, sweet episode.
Sleepin_Dragon28 August 2015
Whilst at church Flora listens to the Vicar's announcements, she is stunned when she hears the publishing of the band of marriage between Horace Maddox and Cecilia Lupin! When congratulated Cissie gets very upset, Flora tries to discover why. We learn a chance meeting led to a proposal in the library, and a muddled Cissie agreed. Flora plans for Cissie to break it off, by finding someone else for Horace.

I like this episode, Cissie and Flora are as usual on top form, the characters are so in the groove. Dad's Army fans will recognise Horace, Frank Williams. Miss Rosalene Comfort is a rather fun character, and the final bag hitting scenes are really funny. It's rather different but fun. 7/10

Cissie's Last Chance
Prismark1015 December 2017
Frank Williams (the vicar from Dad's Army) plays dull librarian Horace Maddox who is looking for love. A mix up at the biographies section leads to Cissie accepting his proposal of marriage.

When Flora goes to church she gets a shock when the vicar reads out the banns of Cissie's impending nuptials.

Cissie is very upset and Flora is on the whisky shorts and now has to make plans to have the engagement broken off. They got to a marriage bureau to find a lady for Horace.

I was rather surprised that Cissie was so upset to find herself engaged. I thought she would be pleased and she certainly was envious at the end when someone else showed interest at the librarian.
