Brilliant! Can't wait for me pencil. It will be interesting to see how much it has changed, what they can and cannot say and do.

I remember mainly Ed Stewart, Stu Francis and Michael Aspel.

I thought it was Eamon Andrews, Pip Hinton, Peter Glaze then Leslie Crowther, I may be mixing it up with something else though.
I hope they don't win cabbages this time!

Were they real cabbages in the Crackerjack series years ago?
If they use real cabbages in this new series, there will be an outcry that it’s an insult towards the poor and starving.
Or, cruelty to a cabbage, when they drop one!

You are right!
Eamon Andrews always annoyed me. He was smarmy.

I hope they do double or drop!

And yes! Of course they MUST have cabbages! It wouldn't be the same without cabbages!

And yes, they were real cabbages!

Not cruel to give kids cabbages! Or should we have everyone being a winner?

Anyway, cabbages are very nutritious!

The cabbages always looked very dark green, never a Hispi or a red cabbage!

Kids nowadays wouldn't even know what a cabbage is if it bit em on the nose
but they would know a Turkey Twizzler.
