The BBC resurrected the hit 1990s show last year, introducing a whole new set of fans to the joy of foam fingers, Lycra-clad combatants and tense showdowns on the Travelator.

A woman has been rescued after becoming trapped in a travelator - a moving walkway - in a Shanghai supermarket, an official has told Chinese state TV.

The woman's lower body fell through the faulty travelator, which had a missing floor plate, last Thursday.

Mr Su added that preliminary findings showed the incident was caused by the travelator's pedal fixing ring moving out of place, which caused the pedal to fall off, and led to the failure of the travelator's automatic stop mechanism.

In 2019, an engineer working on a travelator at Waterloo Station in London was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics after becoming trapped.
