This long awaited book coincides with the 30th anniversary of the popular and award winning BBC sitcom, Hi-de-Hi! by Jimmy Perry and David Croft - writers of Dad's Army and It Ain't Half Hot Mum. Written with full co-operation from the writers and cast members, this full colour book begins with an overview of the holiday camp movement before charting the history of the programme with many anecdotes from those who made and appeared in it. Many of the images included are from personal collections and have never been seen before. Cast biographies are included along with a complete episodes guide. Other chapters deal with costumes, the stage musical, behind the scenes and locations to name a few.
