I know comics strips came and went as the tv shows disappeared off the telly. But what was the longest running comic strip in Look-In?
Was it Space 1999?

Nowhere near... Space:1999 ran for only eighteen months. The Tomorrow People ran for nearly five years.
I think, though not being a fan of the strip, Benny Hill may have run for about six, from 1975/76 to about 1981.

The longest strip is Benny Hill at nearly six years, Tomorrow people ran for about five, but did have a break for a few months during this time, 1999 did'nt quite make 2 years. you can find, more specific information by looking in the Chronology on John's Look-out.
