Fast Forward

Fast Forward was a weekly comic published by BBC Magazines from 1989 to 1995. It featured strips and other material based on BBC series.

The first issue was published in September 1989. In 1995 the BBC launched another magazine for the youth market, Chatterbox, and Fast Forward began to drift away from its focus on the BBC; eventually there were only three strips running in it, and only one of these - "Byker Grove" - was based on a TV series.

Strips included...

• "'Allo 'Allo" (first appeared in issue 1)
• "Bread"
• "Byker Grove"
• "The FF Office"
• "The Flintstones" (first appeared in issue 1)
• "Gordon T Gopher"
• "Grange Hill" (first appeared in issue 1)
• "Peabrain"
• "Radio Wonder FM: Dial FM for French Melons"
