Re: FREEWHEELERS:An introduction
Super Channel (1987 - 1993) ran a lot of old British shows and I'm pretty sure that included Freewheelers. I remember being interested in seeing it again as I was only 10 when the final series aired.

Re: Comics on TV
Posting today from the better late than never department... here's a pic from the first regular episode of Porridge (New Faces, Old Hands), where Heslop (played by the great Brian Glover) is reading the Beezer.
