The beloved TV show that captured the hearts of viewers in the 1990s has finally made its comeback after decades of absence. The iconic Gladiators have returned to the arena, ready to take on a new generation of daring contenders. However, amidst the excitement of the revival, one former Gladiators star has raised concerns about the lack of involvement of the original cast in the reboot.
In a recent podcast episode, Diane, who was known as Jet on the show, revealed that she initially had mixed feelings about the revival. She expressed her wish to have been invited back as a guest presenter or commentator, along with her fellow original Gladiators, Mike and Jennifer. Diane also shared her admiration for the new presenters, father-and-son duo Bradley Walsh and Barney Walsh, and their on-screen chemistry.
Despite her initial reservations, Diane couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and nostalgia while watching the new Gladiators take on the challenges. She even admitted to feeling a bit competitive, hoping that the new cast wouldn't be as good as the legendary Gladiators she was a part of. However, she was pleasantly surprised by their performance, praising the new cast and the production team for their incredible work.
Diane's sentiments were echoed by her followers on Instagram, who also expressed their disappointment in the lack of involvement of the original Gladiators in the reboot. Some even suggested a special charity event where the old and new Gladiators could compete against each other. The Agency has reached out to the BBC for a comment on this matter.
As the new Gladiators take on the challenges and entertain viewers, Diane and her former co-stars continue to hold a special place in the hearts of fans. Despite the passing of time, Diane believes that the Gladiator spirit will always remain within her and her fellow Gladiators. And who knows, maybe one day they will be back in the arena, ready to take on new challenges once again.
But for now, let's tune in to the new Gladiators and see where this revival takes us. Who knows, it might even surpass the original. As the saying goes, "the show must go on." And it certainly has, with the new Gladiators gracing our screens every Saturday on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. So let's sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. Who knows, we might even see some familiar faces in the future.
