🎥✨ BLAST FROM THE PAST ✨🎥

We’ve found an incredible old short film from nearly 20 years ago featuring the legendary 🍎 Fair gurning competition and scenes from around the fair itself! 😂

This is the year that Michaela Strachan actually won the women’s gurning competition… 👀 We think it’s about time she came back to defend her title this year! 😆

Tag your family and friends if you recognise anyone in the video 👇We’d LOVE to know who you can spot!

And if anyone knows Michaela Strachan — or knows someone connected to her — tag them in the comments too… let’s see if we can convince her to come back and recompete this year 😂🍎

📸 Got any old 🍎 Fair photos or videos? Send them over to us — we’d love to share them throughout the year!
