QUIZ: Can you guess the 90s children’s TV show from the character or presenter?

James Dawson

If you can get 12/15 it’s a good score.

It seems so long ago, doesn’t it, the 90s? A halcyon time when Leeds United were still in the Premier League, a quasar and bowling birthday party made you the most popular kid in class, and nobody – and I mean nobody – had a good haircut.

Remember when velour tracksuits were cool?  Remember really wanting a flame shirt? Remember when hair gel was lime green and came in a massive tub? Remember Keenan and Kel? Remember when kids still played out? Remember Oasis before their 3rd album? Remember Tamagotchis?  Remember goo aliens?  Remember the jubilation (and ultimate misery) of Euro 96? Remember when The Simpsons was good?

Great. Because it’s time to rev up that nostalgia engine again to see whether you can name these classic TV presenters and characters from the pictures.

Good luck.
