Emmerdale star Lisa Riley has taken fans on a trip down memory line as she recalled her former role on another ITV show. The actress, who is famed for playing Mandy Dingle in the ITV soap, was reacting to the news that You've Been Framed has reportedly been axed after 33 years on air. The ITV entertainment programme, which first aired with original host Jeremy Beadle in April 1990, saw members of the public send in their amusing home videos and who were then paid a fee if their clip was featured.
And Lisa replaced Jeremy as the presenter of You've Been Framed between 1998 and 2002 while also playing Mandy in Emmerdale the first time around from 1995 to 2001.

Her dark black locks had been combed back into a bouncy curl style while she sported a pink top and matching blazer as she gave an animated look to the camera.
"YOU’VE BEEN FRAMED," Lisa started the lengthy caption of her post. "I woke up this morning to loads of messages informing me that after many many many years 'YBF' is leaving @itv it does make total sense this decision, as this format is now so readily available on streaming platforms. "Personally, I wanted to say the biggest thank you to the show, for five glorious years, full of non stop, fun-laughter, and to the individual people who taught me so much, for this I’m eternally grateful.
The best part of this job was the FANTASTIC crews I worked with year after year. "This programme was a terrific learning ground for young adults wanting to make it in TV, and so many of them whom I had the joy of working with, have now gone on to fabulous entertainment programmes in various Executive positions, not only in UK but around the world. Three delicious individuals Nigel Hall for laughter and more laughter, and then a bit more, our joint personalities made my day, and mostly you took a massive chance on me, and it paid off, at a time when there was no place for women hosting, on prime time Saturday night, the highest rated viewing figures, spoke for themselves.
" Instagram The 46-year-old, from Bury, went on to type: "James Sunderland, the Queen who walked the gallery steps, a vision which sticks firmly in my head forever, your warmth as a beautiful human, has made you who you are today. And finally Karl Lucas my 'Les Miz Onion' the most hilarious individual I’ve been so blessed to call a friend and work colleague, your zest fuelled energy, every single day, gave ME the energy to keep going, when I needed you the most, you were there, and with my beloved Mum, true true, friend. I only played a small part in its success all those years ago, back in 1998.
" Lisa then rounded off her post by adding: "So THANK YOU 'YBF' and here’s to a new generation of programmes. Love and thanks to YOU the viewers who have stuck with the show in its MILLIONS. " And there was a mix of responses as well some remembered Lisa being at the helm, others were surprised to be reminded of her former role.
