    In the early series, there seems to have been a definitive, specific, laid out path. An item was used in a particular location and if you didn't have the item (for whatever reason) when it was needed then you died. The problem is that this lead to the situation where you can do badly in the clue room and still get through the dungeon by being lucky with your selection of items. On the other hand, if you did well, picked up exactly the right items, but missed a clue (or didn't understand the advice given) you were certainly dead. So bad teams could progress and good teams could fail, and it wasn't necessarily clear why. Later series seem to have eased up on this and there always seems to have been an alternative approach available for taking the wrong items (at least in level 1).

    Could someone please help? I'd really like to see the extended version. You can now watch the original upload of the extended Geek Week episode here. There's also a later upload here. Let us know what you think of it. Something I've only just noticed: the first thing to happen in the episode is a facing-away-from-the-camera sidestep (by Veruca). Surely deliberate? Thank you! Great to see the extra stuff! Also nice to hear the opening theme tune fade out naturally without the door-creaking-open sound effect at the end.

    Hugo has been known to make a few cameo appearances at Knightmare Live performances - both he and Mark Knight featured at the Leicester Square Theatre performance in November last year.

    I wonder if the Lords Of The Game pilot will forever remain a convention exclusive or if there might still be any future opportunity to see it. (And the pilot eps of Knightmare, for that matter. Would be cool if Tim could dig them out for the 40th anniversary next year!) I fear it’s unlikely. The pilot was filmed as “not for broadcast” so I imagine that legally it cannot be distributed. We did ask if we could include it on the DVD but although he gave it serious consideration, Tim said nay. I fear the pilots may have the same status

    The Thwomps from Mario would have been an excellent addition! (They were called thwomps, right? The spiky blocks that smash down from the ceiling?) I can say they are characters 'cuz they have faces... heee.

    They dealt well with Scaramonger, too, imo (when he tried to sell them the Firestone). "It's too hot" was a great way of shutting him up, I thought.

    I did enjoy the way the first winning team won, though, with the very first Life Force emergency. But maybe a final conflict would have been an added bonus. I think series 4 was the first series to really excel in this way.

    Well, women like a man who can make them laugh. And while I still like Folly more I'm not sure which of the two I'd trust when it comes down to cooking.

    Hmmm. Not as much feedback as I hoped for...we'll give it another week and see how it goes. So far the score is... Lillith: 2 Mildread: 0 At least it is if we're counting Pendragon's post as a vote for Lillith.

    Mines of Gore... Series 6, the final part of the dungion according to Captain Nemanor, as he casted the WIND spell on the team (cannot remember which), that went on to win the series.

    Eeven though the digitised animals were not all that danger ous (except for Ariadne) they were an important part of knightmare and added a lot to the atmosphere. I think though they scared teams into getting their dungeoneer out of the chamber quickley they were probably more for the viewers.

    Hmm just a thought. Imagine if you were doing an exam and Treguard was an invigilator? Imagine if he caught you cheating? He'd give you one of his stare's and d.i.s.m.i.s.s. you!

    Would a book or bible that contains all the secrets of Knightmare, Cast Pictures, Info, Behind the Scenes, Teams, and add some of our Forum Gags like: "They would never say!" "Things you wouldn't SEE in the dungeon..." "Mysteries" And so on, good, bad, you're choice!

    Yeah I like it, but I'd have to see someone die on it to see how good it is properly.
