Look-In

"The Junior TV Times" (U.K.)

Last update Saturday 6th February 2010

 

A shot from one of the magazine's regular A-Team comic strip

 

Look-In was described as the "Junior TV Times", which ran from 1971 to 1994, and tied in to programmes broadcast on ITV that were likely to appeal to a young audience. It also covered pop music, to a lesser extent newly released films and, occasionally, sport and nature.

 

From the time that 'The A-Team' reached British shores in 1983, continuing well into the late 1980s, Look-In featured 'The A-Team' heavily, often giving the cover over to it, and carried a lot of A-Team features and competitions - and from 1984 for several years, carried an 'A-Team' comic strip, which typically* consisted of stories which (in the style of the magazine's other comic strips, such as 'Magnum p.i.', 'Knight Rider' and 'Airwolf') spanned several issues. (* - Some late entries were single, stand-alone stories.) Here you can see some of those features and comic strips. More being added regularly.
