Karate Kid (1984): Is It The Best (around)?!

GB and AJ look each other in eye as they bow and go back to 1984 to ask if Daniel LaRusso and the very first movie really are the best around.

Other questions covered include:

• How old are Ralph Macchio, his mum and Mr Miyagi in real life?
• Did Mrs Larusso REALLY move them 3,000 miles for a job as a computer waitress?!?
• Who really was that doing crane kicks on the beach stumps?! (Because it wasn't Pat Morita)\
• and why is Elizabeth Shue the template for GB's dream woman?
