Chief ARP Warden Hodges

Chief ARP Warden William Hodges, commonly known as "Hodges", is a fictional greengrocer and chief air raid warden first portrayed by Bill Pertwee in the British television sitcom Dad's Army. Created by series writers Jimmy Perry and David Croft, Hodges served as Captain Mainwaring's main rival in the series, and was noted for his catchphrases "Ruddy hooligans!" and "Put that light out!".

He appeared throughout all nine series of the sitcom, which ran from 1968 to 1977. He later reprised his role of Hodges for the radio sequel series It Sticks Out Half a Mile, which ran from 1983 to 1984.
