DAVINA McCALL, 53 ANNE ROBINSON, 76

In her 20s, Davina kicked her drug addiction to become one of our most popular TV stars.

Recently she reinvented herself again, coping with divorce and a difficult menopause. She’s become a fitness guru, is building a new home for her and her three children, fallen in love again and made an agenda-setting documentary Sex, Myths and the Menopause making one of society’s taboos into a national talking point.

She not only made TV history as the first female host of legendary TV Quiz show Countdown, Anne has undergone a personality change. The notorious Queen of Mean on The Weakest Link finally became kind. ‘I try to get a couple of minutes with the contestants before we begin because I don’t want them to think I’m going to make them cry,’ she reveals.
