EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from December 1987, we see Marian Chanter proudly displaying the trophies she won as the National Champion of the Krypton Factor. Marian, dressed elegantly in a beautiful blue dress, radiates confidence and success. At that time, Marian and her husband Ian were running a bakery business in Lostwithiel, Cornwall. Despite their busy schedule, Marian managed to conquer the challenging quiz programme on ITV with her exceptional mental agility, keen observation skills, physical prowess in assault courses, and extensive general knowledge. The Krypton Factor was an immensely popular television show that aired from 1977 to 1995. It tested contestants' intelligence and physical abilities through various rounds designed to push them to their limits. Winning such a prestigious title speaks volumes about Marian's intellect and determination. Photographed by Jonathan Barker against a backdrop of Cornish charm, this image captures not only Marian's triumph but also reflects the vibrant fashion trends of the 1980s. The blue dress she wears showcases her impeccable style while adding a touch of sophistication. This remarkable photograph is now preserved at the Royal Cornwall Museum as part of its collection documenting local achievements and cultural milestones. It serves as a testament to Marian Chanter's remarkable accomplishment on national television during an era when game shows captivated audiences across Britain.
