A revival of The Generation Game has been a flop, but are there any other shows you’d like to see remade?
I really liked The Krypton Factor, as it combined physical and mental challenges. It was a real test of ability. Liz Kelly, Glasgow
Para Handy was a great programme, but too many modern-day programmes are not everyone’s cup of tea. Robbie Russell, Elgin
Bring back Criss Cross Quiz. It was a quiz show many years ago and it was excellent. Remakes seldom equal the originals, though. Allison Scotland, Roxburghshire
I don’t think there is any show I would like to see remade. The shows back in the day were good for those eras but time moves on and our opinions, likes and dislikes change. There are plenty of channels now and lots of choice. Margaret Gibb, Fife I’d like to see Ask The Family return. Anne Hegerty’s Britain’s Brightest Family is similar, but not as good. Judi Martin, Aberdeenshire
Some classic shows such as The Likely Lads and On The Buses just cannot be remade. They were made to represent the culture and society of the time and would just look out of place these days. I’ve
never seen a remake that’s a patch on the original. Gary
Hopton, Fife
One of the best programmes ever was Callan and it could still stand the test of time. It’s so sad that the main actors Edward Woodward and Russell Hunter are no longer with us. Blind Date should have stayed in the archives! Irene

One of the game shows I liked was 3-2-1, because the audience at home could participate. It also had little sketches and Ted Rogers was a good host. James Brown,
Whitburn
A lot of boring programmes are being remade. But I would love to see The Aff Its Heid Show with Tiger Tim Stevens return. It was brilliant and Tiger Tim is from Glasgow.
