I have mixed feelings about this show. One the one hand, some of the guests who appeared on the show made for interesting viewing though the items involving make-overs, phone-ins, cookery demonstrations and other such pointless guff left me cold. The show began in 1988, originally hosted by Richard Madeley and Judy Finnegan ( both of whom like Terry Wogan had an annoying habit of not letting whatever poor guest was on the show get a word in edgeways ), but later interviewees included the late Caron Keating ( daughter of Gloria Hunniford ), Ruth Langsford, Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield. Appearing sporadically through the '90s was the gorgeous Claudia Winkleman.
Guests on the show, who usually appeared to promote an upcoming project included Anita Dobson ( who appeared discussing her exit from 'Eastenders' as well as promoting her sitcom 'Split Ends' ), Gregor Fisher ( appearing to promote 'The Baldy Man' ), Rik Mayall ( appearing to promote his movie 'Bring Me The Head Of Mavis Davis' ) and Reg Varney ( who appeared to promote the mooted 'On The Buses' remake which never materialised ). Other guests included Martin Clunes, Miriam Margolyes. Pam St. Clement. Terence Stamp, William Roache, Amanda Barrie, Joanna Lumley, Linda Robson and David Jason.
Not great television by any means but still better than irritating pap like 'Loose Women'.
