[[folder:Officers]]

!! Sergeant Major Williams (Creator/WindsorDavies)

* BigShutUp: He's pretty much the master of this trope.
* CatchPhrase: "[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]", "My Lovely Boy(s)", "Oh dear. How sad. Never mind", "Mr La-di-da Gunner Graham"
* DeadpanSnarker: On his good days.
* DrillSergeantNasty: Williams never misses a chance to belittle and berate the men under his command, determined to make real soldiers out of the Concert Party.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While Williams subjects the Concert Party to a great deal of abuse, most of it stems from his desire to make them into proper soldiers; and, if they're ever in real trouble, Williams shows that he does care about them (such as in episode 40, ''The Dhobi Wallahs'', where he delivers a heartfelt [[DueToTheDead eulogy speech]] after he thinks [[spoiler: Sugden]] has been killed).
* LargeHam: Seeing him bellowing in his deep voice is one of the show's highlights.


!!Lieutenant-Colonel Reynolds (Creator/DonaldHewlett)

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Most of the time, Reynolds comes off as much more reasonable towards the Concert Party, compared to Sergeant Major Williams.

!!Captain Jonathan Ashwood (Creator/MichaelKnowles)

* CatchPhrase: "That's rather a tricky one, sir ...", "Oh dear, I am a ''fool''!"
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Most of the time.
