I can't believe that after 35 years Challenge Anneka is back with the same theme!! It's a proper nostalgia trip and the woman still has the same infectious energy and doesn't look like she has aged 5 years, let alone 35!!! Amazing.

@zeddeka5 жыл бұрын
Not sure they were better. This one is very much "stock BBC". I think perhaps though that some of the shows were more prominent as there wasn't as much else to watch. The theme tunes stuck in the mind more simply because of that.

I was in my overalls (blue) working on the buggy in my garage. I needed some bits so jumped into the buggy and drove to the high street. As I jumped out I caught a glimpse of my reflection in a shop window...... clearly the worst Aneka Rice drag impressinist!!!!!!!
