Well just for a giggle the @made_in_48_hours ‘Class of ‘99’ company started sharing pics of themselves on the company chat group (well those that were actually born anyway!). It would be rude not to share them with you now wouldn’t it?! So can you spot any of the Made in 48 Hours gang in these pics from the late 90s era!? 😜 Made in 48 Hours has been going for 25 years now!!! So ‘Class of ‘99’ is very apt title for this year’s production as this was the year it all began! @sammyann_harris & @jamesharrisfilms - the legendary couple started all this nonsense back in their uni days and are still going strong 🥰 1
