They are repeating all the old "Comic Strip" shows at the moment on Gold.

"Five go Mad in Dorset" was made in 1982 and was one of the first shows shown on Channel 4 (opening night).

They followed this up with "Five go Mad in Mescalin" in 1983.

They have now done a modern "remake" called "Five go to Rehab".

The Comic Strip series was when a whole new bunch of comedians began to first appear on British TV such as Rick Mayall, Adrian Edmonson, Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, Nigel Planner, Alexei Sayle etc
