Dont Try This at Home (DTTAH) - anyone know why this was dropped? I loved the music for this !!!

The replacement show Challenge of a Lifetime with that Claire Sweeeeeney was ok but never returned after 1 series.

Guinness World Records with Ian Wright and that fit bird was a great show too
all should come back!!!!

Forget Strike it Rich, Bring Back Strike it Lucky, remix of the original music of course, the original track would be unsuitable now.

Also You Bet, the original catchphrase, and The Generation Game with Brucey

Someone told me that The Generation Game is to be hosted by Paul O'Grady. Is this true?

I vote for the return of Noel's House Party, and The Big Breakfast.

not sure about that - the show is too long in format. It would be better at 40 mins

I agree that Noel's House Party should return but without Noel
Maybe 'The House Party'

Oh god, it'd better not be. What do the BBC, or any channel for that matter, see in this guy?

Yes there are a number of formats without a doubt that many would like to see return, but it is often difficult to recreate the same effect without the same personnel involved.

I mean I loved the original Treasure Hunt, Anneka Rice, Kenneth Kendall, and Wincey in her big chunky jumpers with stick on arrows on the map.

But in it's return, it lost all of the charm for me. Suzie Perry = no Anneka, Dermot was not pompous and fussy enough in the Kenneth role, and all the techie gubbins such as electronic tracking and use of the computer ruined it for me. It isn't nearly as good as the show I remember.

That's the danger.

I think that these should return....

Bullseye (With Jim, why on earth did ITV cancel it?)
The Krypton Factor (With Gordon Burns on his own)
Blockbusters (With Bob, I wouldn't even care if Carlton produced it)
TV-am (I can't stand GMTV)
News At Ten (The proper one, not the sh*tty one we have now)
Whittle (Channel 5 at it's finest in it's early days)
Rab C Nesbitt (I know they're probably not going to make anymore but a repeat would be nice, same with Desmonds too, it was a shame when Norman Beaton (Desmond) died.)
