RTBWTV November 2022 showcase - Comic Strips And TV Tie Ins

Comic Strip connections 
In our leisurely swim (rather than a deep dive) through the classic television that flitted across the black and white screens of the UK from the Suez Crisis in 1956 until the three day week in 1974, Co hosts Guy Morgan and David Newell muse upon the comic strips that were turned into TV series and the series that became comic strips either in magazines or the inevitable annuals released just before Christmas. 
Our thanks to the Teletronic and TV Heaven websites:
 https://www.teletronic.co.uk/pages/classic_comics.html
and to Lew Stringer for putting in all the hard work.

We also ponder the difference between writing a screenplay and a comic strip, and who better to ask than David Newell? who has turned his creative hand to everything....
Incidentally, HMS Matilda (co-created with Andrew Coley) is still waiting to be snapped up.
