TV comeback challenge for Anneka

Anneka Rice is making her TV comeback with an ITV cookery show.

The former host of Treasure Hunt and Challenge Anneka will co-host Sunday Feast with Andi Peters.

The live Sunday morning show begins on ITV1 next week and will mix cooking tips with celebrity news and interviews.

It will be the first major presenting job for Rice (aged 47) since Challenge Anneka ended in 1995.

She is best known for Treasure Hunt, the hit 1980s show in which she raced around Britain in brightly-coloured jumpsuits.

Her career also included stints on Wish You Were Here and Good Morning Britain.

Rice dropped out of the limelight to study art at college and to concentrate on raising her three sons.

Peters is a former BBC children’s TV presenter who went on to become producer of Top Of The Pops.
