Challenge Anneka

1989–2007 · 8 seasons

Breezy, good-natured race against the clock where strangers pitch in and small kindnesses pile up into something genuinely moving.

Overview: The programme that tries to make the impossible possible. Each week Anneka Rice is set a challenge by a member of the public and, using only her giant Challenger truck, has to beg, borrow and otherwise persuade people to help her complete the task on time. All challenges aim to achieve something of lasting benefit, and Anneka has no idea what lies in store until the fateful moment when the challenge arrives.
How it feels: Warm, uplifting, earnest and light. Brisk and easy to follow.
About: Found family, friendship, family, healing
Content: No violence, gore, sexual content or swearing.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
