Do you recognise these British presenters from the 90s and 2000s?

Friday and Saturday nights were golden in the late 90s/early 2000s. British families got together (after consulting the TV guide of course) to watch the evening shows - generally with a takeaway perched atop a tray. What are the presenters of these shows doing now and would you even recognise them if you saw them today?

Let us wonder what happened to those brilliant game shows that we settled down on the sofa to watch together. Looking now at a photo of this man - could you recognise him and remember the show he used to present?

Of course, it's Craig Charles, the longest presenter of the addictive TV show, 'Robot Wars.' People at home had the chance to make their own robot which would get a chance to battle the hosts' innovations: Matilda, Shunt, and, of course, Sir Killalot were just a few of the mini, mighty machines. Craig Charles now works on the radio, whilst DJing and picking up the occasional acting job.

She also won Celebrity MasterChef in 2017. Good looking and great at cooking, what more could you ask for? But can you remember her from the '90s?

She was a regular on CBBC shows including Xchange, 50/50, Short Change, and The Saturday Show in the ‘90s and ‘00s. In 2010 she married former kid’s TV presenter Michael Underwood, The couple met while working together on CBBC in 2000.

This comedy pair have made a living goofing around for the public’s amusement. They have appeared in tours and cruises up till 2019 and have launched their own festival show. But what was the name of the show that made them so famous in the early 00s and was so popular that the duo performs an adapted stage version around the UK’s Butlins venues?

'D. And Dom In Da Bungalow' live kids' TV show was enormous back in the day – with their jokes and pranks becoming so famous that some people still repeat them today. The most popular was their Bogies prank, where they would go to a quiet place such as a library and say the word ‘bogies’ at an increasing volume until people complained or kicked them out. Never gets old.

Do you remember 'Live & Kicking' and 'Top of the Pops'? Those great shows were hosted by Jamie Theakston. He also narrated the BBC documentary series 'Traffic Cops' from 2003 and 2015, and again on Channel 5 from 2016 onwards.

He does voice-over work and occasionally appears on TV as well as being a successful DJ, and has also appeared on 'Celebrity Juice'. In 2009, he was the victim of a death hoax perpetrated across the internet which reported that he had died in a car crash. But he was previously known for his presenting talent in which show?

He was the bundle of energy on ‘Get Your Own Back’, the kids' show that gunged your annoying parents. And he's still touring with his gunge machine across the UK taking his gunge tank to Camp Bestival and The Edinburgh Festival.

She won Celebrity Big Brother and come a long way since she began her career began as a weather lady, but that's not what the public best knows her for.

That's right, she was the presenter of 'Gladiators' - that Saturday night show the British public would sit down to watch, take sharp intakes of breath and sing along to 'Another one bites the dust'. She has always been on our screens and boasts an illustrious career, keeping her in the spotlight.

This man continues to cook to this day and has had many a TV show named after him. But the one which really captured the British public's hearts didn't have his name in the title. Can you remember what the show was?

The 1994 Daytime tv show saw two members of the public providing two celebrity chefs with a bag of ingredients they had bought, usually to a set budget of £5. Tomato vs pepper. We all remember arguing with our family members at home about what we would do with that box of ingredients. TV gold.
