The story of Gaia's trauma, and her family's lasting heartbreak, is tragic and distressing. If there is one moment of light in the series, it's in Episode 3 when we see home video of Natasha/Kim at Dancing Ledge as a newlywed and mother-to-be, with references to happy times spent there. This would have been some time prior to 1998 so she looks similar to how we remember her from Knightmare.
There are details of the family's campaigning on the Justice for Gaia website.

It really did come as a complete surprise to me as well - I was struggling getting the narration part to sound right myself and then remembered about the series introductions in Knightmare and how his voice was absolutely perfect for over-the-top pretentious metal concept albums... so I looked up his agent, sent an email to her and she (being an incredibly nice woman!) just... sorted it all out. (I definitely had to carefully word the detail that the story was "based on the works of a Japanese author called Hato Moa" and desperately hoping she didn't Google it.) Even so many years on, I'm still not quite used to being an adult and being able to ask people to do things.
I'm back on a Knightmare kick now thanks to this

https://www.bryanmcnerney.co.uk/news/father-christmas/
According to his website, 'Bryan's secret is that he actually talks to children – has real conversations with them' and 'sometimes he even leads them in a song or two – he has a beautiful, memorable voice'. A far cry from his non-verbal behaviour as Grimwold the ogre and the Behemoth 31 years ago (Series 3).
Bryan (who was uncredited on Knightmare but later confirmed as the actor behind Grimwold) has also had a career as a TV historian and tour guide.

I stumbled on a Twitter thread from 2014 this morning that announced that Lawrence Werber, AKA Cedric the Mad Monk and Casper the Cr*ppy Key, was cast in a stageplay at the Finborough Theatre, called The Domino Heart. The website is still up at http://finboroughtheatre.co.uk/production/the-domino-heart/?archive=2014.
Inevitably, Lawrence doesn't look so young these days, but those eyes that could cut precious stones remain as powerful as ever.

At one point Rayner is seen through a"spy mirror" (similar to the conversation between Greystagg and Heggaty in the last episode of Series 6), and then tries to steal the object of the song name in question, which also gives him a roguish element akin to Julius Scaramonger.

I remember you describing Joanne Heywood's Activia advert as 'quite a gig' and you could say the same here.
It's certainly a big marketing campaign that Joanne is fronting. Perhaps her experience of young quartets on Knightmare gave her an edge.
I wonder who's done more adverts: Joanne or Katharine Bennett-Fox (advisor on Team 3 of Series 4)? This year she's been in a We Buy Any Car advert with a tiny Phillip Schofield on her shoulder.

I only just found out about this yesterday so apologies for the delay in responding.
Very sad to hear about Bill's passing - it was an absolute pleasure to have met and interviewed him for my 25th Anniversary Documentary. Being a busy man that he was in his role as director for Actors In Industry, the company he had co-formed, I was very grateful that he was willing to spare an hour to talk about the characters he played on Knightmare as well as the memories he had of being on the show.
We met at his company's office in London Bridge (as it happens, only a short walk away from where I work presently) where we recorded the interview in the office's cosy lounge downstairs. We began filming, where Bill shortly paused asking if we could restart the interview. He said this was because he suddenly felt able to go into a lot more detail about his time on Knightmare - I was more than happy for him to do this as it meant I would have additional content to work with when it came to working on the final version of the documentary. As the interview progressed, he got more and more into talking about being a part of an iconic programme as well his other acting work and how he then went on to co-founding his own company. The icing on the cake was when I got him to do his Snapper Jack quote, with a little recap from myself given that he obviously hadn't said it for quite some time.
His interview was done in the early hours of a Thursday morning - really nice person to talk to and someone who was very passionate and active in everything that he did. Bill Cashmore is most certainly a man who is already missed indeed.

Thank you for sharing this, James. I'm so glad he was part of the documentary.

The first face seen, and the first words heard, are John Woodnutt's, firmly restoring the spirit of Mogdred. His line "No buts" is a reminder of what happened when Mogdred met Team 1 of Series 4.
John Woodnutt's character in Jeeves and Wooster is a recurring one, so if more episodes are shown then we'll see him again.
The character was sentencing Bertie Wooster for removing a policeman's helmet. This reminded me of Knightmare Series 3, when Mogdred ordered Leo to take off the Helmet of Justice.
Later in the episode, Wooster tells Jeeves he is talking "flapdoodle". Mildread used the same word during Series 2, as part of her colourful vocabulary (flibbertigibbet, mugwump, dotterel).
There's an intriguing fanfic, Jeeves and the Impending Apocalypse, which crosses over Jeeves and Wooster with Buffy the Vampire Slayer's universe. It's by Brother Mace himself: Michael Cule.
