Sarah Michelle Gellar shares her big annoyance with Buffy as she teases comeback
Sarah Michelle Gellar has revealed the one part of Buffy The Vampire Slayer that she still finds the most annoying.
The 45-year-old actress made a very rare chat show appearance on the The Graham Norton Show on Friday where she spoke about the iconic teen show's lasting impact.
The spooky series has been off air for almost 20 years with final episode, Chosen broadcast on May 20, back in 2003 on UPN.
When asked about when the show ended, Sarah sighed and said: "A week now people have been reminding me. But yes, 20 years."
Graham went on the ask the mum-of-two whether she thought it was "annoying" or "lovely" that people are still talking about Buffy today.

She added: "Because then it’s like, ‘Oh, now we realise how old you are.’ Otherwise I feel like it’s maybe a little bit of a mystery."
However, there was a more specific element of the show that irks her more than any other.

The show ran from 1998 up until 2003 (PA)The actress said she believes that the iconic crucifix she wore on the show wasn’t something the fashionable Buffy Summers would have ever worn.
Sarah Michelle said: "[The character] Angel gives her the cross in episode, I think, seven, maybe, of the first season. And obviously I was going to be wearing this cross forever, and it was just made by a prop master,” Sarah Michelle recalled, before quickly noting that she had nothing against prop masters."
"But you want your costume designer to design something that you’re going to have to wear with every outfit. And the thing is — you know, I have a tiny torso — and the thing is like this big," she said, as she used her hands to indicate the large size of the necklace.
