Anna Karen’s acting career didn’t end when this show ended. Instead, in 1996 she got herself a recurring part on one of the UK’s biggest soaps – EastEnders. She also played as one of the Judges on Channel 4’s ‘Faking It’. She has also had her fair share of pantomime roles throughout her career.

She teaches acting classes at Brewers Academy which is in her home of Essex.
One of my favourite programmes, when I was growing up, was “Fame”. I wanted to go to that performing arts school and jump over tables, singing my heart out! I’d mime into my hair brush, pretending to be Irene Cara. There was some great viewing to be had, fantastic sitcoms, like “Are You Being Served” and cartoons such as “The Flintstones”. Take a telly trip back to those days and enjoy!
1 Sons And Daughters
Australian soap with a sweet them tune – I used to watch this with my mum.
2 Are You Being Served
Full of innuendos, especially with Mrs Slocombe!
3 Magpie
One for sorrow, two for joy, Susan Strands, Tony Bastable and Mick Robertson presented this interesting show.
4 Mr Benn
How entertaining was this! Mr Benn went into the changing room of the fancy dress shop and came out the other side as that character!
5 Knight Rider
Kit, the only car to drive itself with Michael Knight as its owner.
6 Charlie’s Angels
I would have been ecstatic to look like any of these glamorous Angels. I did have a “Farah” hair style.
7 Kojak
Who loves ya baby….says the detective with the lolly.
8 Happy Days
Saturdays with the Fonz was definitely a happy day!
9 The Price Is Right
Come on down……great game show with Leslie Crowther.
10 On The Buses
One of my all-time favourite comedy shows when I was growing up.
11 Tomorrow’s World
I remember when they discussed being able to see the person at the other end of the telephone and we were thinking it was the most far fetched thing we’d ever heard.
