Challenge Anneka reboot: Welsh-born '80s TV icon Anneka Rice's partner, career and recycling those jumpsuits

The energetic 1990s BBC One show, Challenge Anneka is making a comeback in 2023, this time on Channel 5, but with the same energy and, as Anneka Rice revealed recently, recycling the same jumpsuits from the original show.

The original series aired from September 1989 to October 1995 and was fronted by Anneka, who was one of TV's most regular and popular faces and, was actually born in Cowbridge, Vale of Glamorgan. She grew up in Surrey, though and now the 64-year-old is back on our screens racing around the country helping good causes and communities.
