Branded is the eleventh episode of the third series of the British comedy series Dad's Army. It was originally transmitted on Thursday 20 November 1969.
On a night of programmes devoted to Dad's Army, Jimmy Perry named it his favourite episode. "When we told Arnold Ridley that we'd written a part especially for him, he was absolutely delighted. When he read the script he said, "Jimmy, its good to mention conchies as they were called, because they went through hell a lot of them, and a lot of them had high principles. I'm very honoured to play it. Both Arnold Ridley and John Laurie had served in the First World War and both served in the Battle of the Somme where Ridley was dreadfully badly wounded. We all knew about the war - perhaps that's what gives Dad's Army, as Clint Eastwood says in Pale Rider, that 'little bit of edge'. It's [a] quite serious [episode]. In the end dear old Godfrey is proved to have more courage than the lot of them".
