The rights for both have been picked up by RDF which is planning 21st century revamps. RDF executive Nigel Pickard said: "We feel there's real potential for these classic brands to be reworked for a modern day audience."

Any new versions will be co-produced with Pidgeon Entertainment which has granted RDF licences to the brands.

Worzel Gummidge originally appeared on ITV for four series from 1979 to 1981 starring ex-Doctor Who Jon Pertwee and Una Stubbs as Aunt Sally.

RentaGhost, about a group of ghosts living in suburbia, ran on BBC from 1975 to 1984. It starred Corrie actress Sue Nicholls as the permanently sneezing Miss Popov.

It also featured Christopher Biggins and Lynda La Plante.

The no-nonsense Tory MP, 60, meets gang members, including a young mum who stabbed a man in the neck and left him for dead, in Ann Widdecombe Versus Girl Gangs screened on September 18.

She said: "What I found was genuinely shocking. Young girls, not only out of control but inflicting quite serious violence."

Widdecombe took to the mean streets of London and Birmingham to discover how girl gangs operate.

She said: "I thought I was talking to perfectly normal, kindly women, the next moment I heard stories on how it was defensible to carry knives, indeed almost necessary and justifiable to carry knives.

"Worse, how they could get a gun if they had to within five minutes."

Widdecombe spent a night observing drunken Birmingham girl gang members.

An ITV1 spokeswoman said: "She followed the girls as they trail the streets with up to 50 male and female pals drinking and shouting.

"The police move the gang on but they re-group on a housing estate and Ann is there as the night descends into chaos with some of the youths turning violent and attacking a local resident."

The former co-presenter says she's more than happy having her own slot on the programme which she films some of the week back home in Scotland.

"I don't want the job and I don't think it would be a good idea," she said. "I've got the balance right (between work and family) and that would upset it. You've got to put kids first."

The sketch series attracted 194 complaints - way behind the 4,000 received by BB. One viewer said: "I found it to be absolutely disgusting. The material he was using was not only offensive but in very poor taste."

Third on the C4 list was The Genius Of Charles Darwin with 85 complaints.

"He'll also try to unravel the mess of the credit crunch."
