Used to watch it every morning when I lived with my dad after staying up all night. Went through a phase of staying up all night. My dad would get up and get ready for work as the show was starting. He would usually chuckle at something Johnny was saying or doing while he himself was slurping back his tea as he was heading out the door. Dad's gone now and the world has moved on. I'll always have fond memories of those days, where does the time go, it seems like yesterday.

I also enjoyed it when Mark Little was there for a time, the worst years were when Richard Orford, Rick Adams and Sharon Davies presented it... but once Johnny Vaughan and Denise Van Outen got together it was awesome. I used to tape the episodes on VHS and on cassette tapes which I've long since lost. This was truly an inspired programme the likes of which I've never seen since. "Singing wakey, wakey, wakey rise and shine, the Big Breakfast is the only way to dine, it's your number one big brekkie so get it down your neckie and stick with us from 7 until 9."

Cable Casual, Carpet Monster, Stern Lawrence & Linton. The dad from the family of the week getting roped in to fixing the carperts during the show. The girl who wanted to be Macy Gray on Stars in their eyes but was rejected because she was the wrong skin colour. Jo Guest showing off her.. intellect. But I remember most being selected to present the route to midnight in 1998, and appeared on the show in June 1998, with footage from the hotel I worked at and the pokey little flat I lived in at the time.

[@97channel]

Oh wow! This is a treat. Johnny Vaughan back at The Big Breakfast House, everything was momentarily alright with the world. Looking forward to seeing what they do with the one-off special, next year, and if it will lead to a permanent return. The outside of the house hasn't actually changed very much since the way it looked when the show ended. Just some slight differences to the doors and windows, new tiling on the roof and windows added to the attic conversion. Mind you, the house underwent several vast changes when the show was there. The house that Chris and Gaby started the show with has completely vanished, there's nothing at all left of it on display except for the three brick chimneys. Probably half of the original brickwork remains, but is forever lost beneath the render which was applied in the 1996 makeover. The greenery has grown immensely, looks lovely. Although the inside is hugely different now, most fanatics of the show will still easily see where everything once was. I've always been so pleased that the treasured Big Breakfast house wasn't simply left to rot. Hope it is forever looked after as well as it has been, whatever changes may occur to it over time.

[@Danny.Thompson]

There is still a lot of the white picket fence on the side of the house too.

[@97channel]

I think most of it lining the towpath is actually the same fencing from when it began in 1992. As far as I'm aware, they never changed it. I was somewhat surprised that Johnny felt that it had changed a lot outside, because I don't think it's actually changed much at all from the style of 1998 onwards.

I'd love to see how different the replica Big Breakfast house , that was given as a prize now looks

I’m deep into a big breakfast nostalgia hole. It truly was a more free, fun time. We could laugh and joke. Social media killed that.

I used to tape this so that I could watch it in the evening, could only catch a half hour of it before I had o go to work, but I didn't want to miss a thing. Johnny and Denise were the Golden Years of that show, they had me CREASED UP DAILY!

Christ. What an epic, genre busting show that was. JV and DVO made TBB what it was. They were both hilarious. Loved it.
