In case you've been on the planet Gallifrey for the past month (and before you comment, yes I know that would be impossible), here is the news: Gladiators is back.
Yes, sick to death of being treated like a "comedy jester" by the BBC, Ian Wright has instead decided to bring a sense of gravitas to Hang Tough by signing up to the new Sky One series alongside Kirsty Gallacher and the legendary referee John Anderson. (By the way, memo to Sky: you've spelt Kirsty's surname wrong).
So, as Peter Bradshaw and I wait for Wrighty and the gang's May launch, here are a few questions I'd like answered ...
1. Who will be the first to step into the Wolf role and get a pantomime telling off from John Anderson?
2. Will Wrighty come up with a catchphrase as preposterous as John Fashanu's?
3. How many extra points will victims of physical assault get this time round?
4. Which of the female Gladiators will be the first to realise their job is essentially updating mud wrestling for prime time?
5. Whatever happened to Wesley '2 Scoops' Berry?
