Flook (cartoon)

Flook was a cartoon strip by "Trog" in the Daily Mail newspaper, which ran from 1949 to 1984. The main characters were a young boy called Rufus and his animal friend, Flook. They inhabited a satirical fantasy-world populated by larger-than-life characters, most of whom bore a striking resemblance to leading politicians and celebrities. Many of their adventures also starred jailbird Bodger, his witch-like sister Lucretia (cf. Lucretia Borgia) and a mad retired colonel.

"Trog" was the pen name of Wally Fawkes of the jazz group Wally Fawkes and the Troglodytes. Storylines were written by many different people, including commedian Barry Took and musician Humphrey Lyttleton).
