    Gladiators

    1 9 9 2 – 2 0 0 2Β (UK)

    Based on the original American Gladiators show, this British series pitted members of the publicΒ against superfit ‘Gladiators’ in trials of strength, speed and stamina.

    Former TV-AM weather-girl Ulrika Johnson was with the show from the first episode and in many ways was the main anchor due to her TV background.

    Despite having no hosting experience, footballer John Fashanu was given the role of male host of the show.

    For seasons 6 and 7, he was replaced by Rugby star Jeremy Guscott. Fashanu did return for the final mini-series in 1999.

    GladiatorsΒ was filmed at theΒ National Indoor Arena, Birmingham.

    Jefferson King (Shadow) was fired from the show due to drug use.

    This is what they promised us when I was a kid. What happened? 

All I have is 700 channels of rubbish on the TV in High Def, TikTok, Facebook and a phone I can take photographs with . . .
