Not sure where this should go since there isn't an off topic board but anyway:-

Treasure Hunt - another classic
About time it came back, even though it's a new series (hope they don't mess this up at the BBC)

I guess they won't keep old Kenneth Kendall. A pity really, since he was the cause of lots of comedy moments: "Anneka, stop looking at the clouds and listen to me!"

Oh dear. That is pretty bad. I don't know if I could watch it without Kenneth's temper tantrums.

I know a lot of people liked it. But I watched one episode, and it was just dire. Dermot M. was, I thought, excruciatingly boring, and the two male contestants were slightly camper than me. All in all, it was pretty poor, in my opinion. :(

I honestly do not like the new Treasure Hunt.

I was never a BIG fan of the first one, but it WAS better than this one.

I was too young when the original was on to compare it to the modern one.

I'm not sure it will. With a bit of luck, the old cast can be coaxed back anyway.

At most the old magic will merely be replaced with a new one and be just as good if not better.

The only memory I really have of Treasure Hunt (original) is of Anneka Rice running around places being transported by a helicopter.

And when I read the description of new Knightmare at first I thought that they were taking it in entirely the wrong direction... but thanks to suggestions on the board (especially Malefact) I can see how it would work.
