Here’s an interesting page from The Stage, dated 16th May 1985, featuring and interview with Colin Gilbert, who was then the head of BBC Scotland’s Comedy Unit. He had recently produced A Kick Up The Eighties, and Laugh??? I Nearly Paid My Licence Fee.
See also the announcement of ITV sitcom Trouble And Strife, as well as the one for Crosswits (listed as Cross Wits here). I never realised Barry Cryer hosted the first two series. Shame I can’t find any clips of it.
That article also taught me that Naked Video was based on a radio series called Naked Radio.
