The inspiration for the series was drawn from the real-life experiences of writers Perry and Croft. After being demobbed from the Army, Perry had spent his holidays as a Redcoat at Butlins. During its nine-year run, the series gained large audience figures and won a BAFTA as Best Comedy Series in 1984. Set in Maplins, a holiday camp in the fictional seaside town of Crimpton-on-Sea, Essex, which is loosely based on Butlins, the real-life holiday camp empire of Billy Butlin, with his Redcoats replaced with Yellowcoats.
