Armando Iannucci presents a series which explores the history of British comics.
He looks at the new characters and strips which emerged in the 1970s and 80s to appeal to an older, more adult readership of comics, from Judge Dredd and Tank Girl to Viz and Watchmen.
At the forefront of this comics uprising was writer Alan Moore, who reads from his works such as V for Vendetta and talks about his latest graphic novel, the controversial Lost Girls.
