Jeff Shankley as Bruce Tick & Christine Kavanagh as Karen in the world premiere of The Revengers' Comedies at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in 1989. Tick is regarded as one of the play's most memorable characters & there was actual debate in The Stage newspaper upon whom the flatulent character was based upon.
