    Knightmare VR (which can be found on YouTube if you haven't seen it) includes an "avatar", a giant blue humanoid and a mix of live action and CGI, but not much of a plot. You're welcome, James Cameron.

    I turned the radio on this morning and who was on, no other than Tim Child. He was talking about his news presenter who has been 'hired' today. I can't remember which newspaper he said it was for!

    Thanks for these, James. Given how long Knightmarers and Livejournalists have gone together, it is surprising it has taken 'til 2007 for an Knightmare LJ community to appear, really! And indeed, I think the Treguard page is designed to be a touch more humour based than homage based.

    8th is not bad at all. I'm not exactly round here posting on an everyday basis any more either, but it's these bits of information I like to pick up on! I'd have like to known where such shows as Blockbusters and The Crystal Maze featured, that's of course if they did feature.

    I got my email read out on the show tonight. The Email task was to tell a lie about yourself: "Hi Greggles! Let it be known that I am in fact a tortoise... A racing tortoise... A FAMOUS racing tortoise called... Nigel."

    Superb. Thank you very much for alerting us to that. I knew that such an article was planned but didn't know when exactly it was coming out. Needless to say, I'll get a copy from WHSmugs tomorrow.

    I'd thought I'd bring this topic back up because I was wondering if anyone in the East of East Anglia caught tonights Anglia News. There was something about Televirtual on, which I sort of caught the end of.

    KM Recives yet another vote. What a UN-LOVELY List of choices!! Appart from Inspector Morse & The Sweeny (with the great John Thaw RIP) And Cracker (Robbie Coltrane) it was a pretty naff representation of ITV.

    I looked online yesterday to see if they had the article on the site, but couldn't find it! I also looked on the sister paper's (The East Anglian Daily Times) site to see if their was anything there but there wasn't.

    No idea, I switched off my computer radio just before midnight. But I did sent a couple of emails plus one annomyous text to the studio. If he mentioned Keith Brollachan then yes, otherwise no idea.

    g I remember someone telling me that Hugo Myatt had died, and that was why there was no new series... I really don't know who told me that - probably was the simplest way to explain to a distraught nine year old that her favourite series wasn't going to be on anymore. Probably the happiest thing I've learnt since joining the fandom is that he's still alive - it was definitely an amazing feeling, that it was just [a very roundabout accumulative series of problems well described by Mr. Child] rather than what I thought for a long, long time!

    I didnt manage to find the poll as I was assaulted by many pop ups containing the malevolent likes of Coco Monkey and some Pokemon. I would just like to wonder how Jungle Run can beat the best thing ever to hit C.I.T.V (which these days is struggling for good entertainment). For a start, the challenges are easy and the show is over-lenient. It is mimicking another great game show of older times, the Crystal Maze, who's realisitic sets and rooms are insulted by jungle run's cheap backdrops, badly made costumes and poor challenges. I'm suprised it got any votes at all! Also, the phrase 'Won't go away empty handed' has been converted from a small certificate or present to something fantastic e.g the latest game console. Childrens shows are really going downhill.

    The world of Knightmare is a very healthy place. It's beyond belief some of the cool stuff that is going on. To be honest, I thought the oppurtunity to see Knightmare again was unlikely. But the prospect of a new Knightmare in serious development is unreal. Who'd have thunk it?

    The poll has looooong finished. As Keke said we think it finished in third place. Still not bad as it could've came in a worse place.

    Hi there. There has been debates come up time and time again about which Channel Knightmare and which Channel the knew Knightmare should be on including this thread. http://www.talkknightmare.co.uk/yabbse/http://www.knightmare.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=4;action=display;threadid=1097 Also before Knightmare was first shown on Challenge letters were sent to different channels including free ones asking if they'd show Knightmare, but to no avail. I doubt we'd be successful if we were to ask now, particularly as Challenge have the rights. But the the best Channels I think would be the best to show Knightmare are bbc 2 or Channel 4.

    I did that interview with him in 2001, and he was living in the USA at the time, not Germany. Can also confirm he is still living in the USA. Yes some leaks occured, but that does not seem to be a problem now.
