The Comic Strip Quiz

This is a quiz for the British Comedy institution which is The Comic Strip Presents. The Comic Strip began performing at the Raymond Revue Bar in London's Soho in the early 1980s. After meeting with Ian Bolland at Channel 4 The Comic Strip Presents was commissioned. Production came quickly and the first episode was broadcast on 2nd November 1982 with 'Five go mad in Dorset' a spoof on the Enid Blyton series. Being part of the opening night of Channel 4 helped boost exposure for the fledgling film makers and thus The Comic Strip Presents were born.

Over 30 films and 25 years later they still have an appeal, and no matter where you go I am almost certain you will find a fan. Films include: Five go mad in Dorset, Les Dogs, GLC, Four men in a plane
