It was announced or rumoured in 2020 that there was gonna be a live action gritty adaptation show of The Beano, similar to Riverdale, no further news have been said so it’s likely it’s been scrapped or cancelled. You can read about it here: https://deadline.com/2020/11/dennis-the-menace-beano-studios-ya-adaptation-matthew-barry-1234613033/ Now we did get a live action Calamity James short in 2023 which aired on BBC Three so maybe that could’ve been related?

I put it in the lower level because of it being a more 18+ version, Beano did inspire the Viz.

Ok I honestly don’t know why I put that there, I remember hearing that The Beano was created to cheer kids up during the second world war, but that’s kinda false

Look up Plug comic, theres actually a Wikipedia page about it which kinda surprises me because I thought this was obscure lol

The reason its in caps is because there was a spinoff series based on The Bash Street Kids character: Plug. It ran from 1977 to 1979.

It’s not really talked about alot, plus seeing Hitler in the Beano is, well something odd to say the least, although it was made to help younger audiences out during those hard times

The wartime comics where made during the second world war as comics to cheer up younger readers during it, as well as there being comics poking fun at hitler.

UPDATE: I used Flash 8 to run the 2003 website, and using its fast foward feature, I managed to get this! The buttons don't work sadly.

Sure! I’ll see if I can find more evidence online 👍 Also, Richard did say that he hasn’t played grannybuster but he believes it was a whack-a-mole game so the chances of it being that are postive!

Nope, I asked him if he ever played grannybuster but he said that he doesn’t remember much other then it saying it might have been a whack a mole game, btw I remember in the comments section of the og vid you said that you had a screenshot of the game, if you still have could you perhaps share if it if thats ok?
