Gaz Top Returns!

Yup, you heard it here first, Gareth’s 80’s persona, ‘Gaz Top’ is due to make a come-back.

The black mullet of Get Fresh! fame will once again be revived for Saturday Morning T.V., this time framing Gareth’s face for a guest spot on raucous kids’ show Dick ‘n’ Dom In Da Bungalow.

“I lost the ‘Gaz Top’ nickname along with the hairdo back in the late 80s, so my manager was amazed I agreed to do it”, admitted Gareth. “Even though I’ve now presented many, many more ‘sensible’ shows - from How2 to Tomorrow’s World to ITV1 motorsport – my 80s image has dogged me ever since”.

So why did he do it?

“I reckon that, as some people still cling to my Get Fresh days, then I might as well see the funny side!”

Those who prefer Gareth’s more serious side should also look out for him later in the month – this time, at the Science Museum’s Dana Centre where the former Tomorrow’s World presenter will be hosting his first in a series of live, public discussions on topical science issues.

Perhaps he should get dressed up as ‘Gaz Top’ for that too….!?
