On September 20th 1976 the very first "Roy of The Rovers" comic was published by IPC Magazines, dated 25th September. In this show we celebrate that launch which further catapulted Roy of The Rovers into being a household name within British popular culture.

We also look back and celebrate the people behind the launch including of course it's architect, it's first editor the legendary Barrie Tomlinson.

We are also honoured to be joined by the artist of "Roy of The Rovers" in that first issue, the incomparable David Sque - tune in!
