Chapter 2 will be up soon. I'm going to revise Chapter 1 to change the format from Script format to Story format to make it easier to read. That's why I'm taking so long to write the next chapter but it will be up I promise.

I'm planning to put up an "accumulated wisdom" page on my website, compiling some of the wisest truths ever uttered in the series. Here's some quotes to be going on with... "When the going gets cold, the tough get frozen." "Life goes on... or not." "You smell like something the cat brought up!" "Any decision is better than indecision. Well, almost." "There's only one way to get out [of a monster's stomach]. Well two actually, but we won't go into that!" "Can you try giving a straight answer for once?" "Maybe." Funnily enough I had the same idea a while back. I came up with these ones: "You can always trust something with its head missing." (Gundrada, Series 4) "You can't sign a peace treaty with a Pooka." (Treguard, Series 7) "If you invent something new, give it a really pretentious name - everyone goes overboard for it." (Lord Fear, Series

Does anyone have any of the Challenge ads preferably that you can view large screen, where the picture quality remains good (exept the office ones) that can possibly be uploaded to the main site?

I just saw this (years too late)! I'm a game developer and wondered if you'd be willing to open source this project? Or team up and build a version for modern VR (or anyone else wanting to build something)? I primarily work in Unreal Engine on 3D games, as blueprints can handle most of the complex logic (I trained as an artist before jumping into level design, then development, and still prefer the visual method). I loved Knightmare as a kid and have waited (unsuccessfully) for it to be rebooted since the 90s! A VR game would work even with Knightmare newbies (I've shown the TV show to my young relatives and they loved it). You don't need to have seen the original to understand the concept of wandering alone through a dark and mysterious dungeon and solving puzzles.

Yep, I do agree with you I'd like to see the Qwaz board a little bit busier again - I admit I didn't remember about the board being used if this one was down, sorry about that - so I'd like to see it in the news fader again as well

One thing I like in the closing moments of the scene is the inimitable Hugo Myatt saying my first name in the team's farewell. Given it's a rare one it has the almost feeling of being addressed directly by the great man himself.

No winners in series 3. Martin and Leo got ripped off with harsh questions. The weeping doors in Series 4.

You could change it every week to a quote from the series. How about, "Welcome to Fright-Day! Have a ball... a fire-ball!"

No worries, glad to help

That was Virtually Impossible. My seven year old self hasn't forgotten that fish. Shudders. Hope he was cookable. I still feel that i would have loved Knightmare more then that Virtually Impossible even as a seven year old. Knightmare would have made more sense. Some of the challenges in Virtually Impossible were good but i think it was missing something. Like a better back story for that fish for a start. I only remember seeing a couple of episodes of it. Mostly because i didn't trust that fish as it didn't make sense with the way it talked and believed rightly or wrongly that the fish had done away with his original human crew. Art Attack was good. Singing Kettle News was good. Knightmare is up there with Raven. I loved Raven when it was on. Virtually Impossible...... Just needed a lot more work done on it. A lot more. And that fish to make sense. Talking under water......what? Then seven year old me might have enjoyed it more. As it is... seven year old me...... if i had had seen Knightmare as a seven year old that is..... wants Knightmare more ....... As Knightmare makes sense. I think looking back they rushed it through. That's why it made little sense. But Knightmare is still better [my own opinion based of what i have seen so far of both programmes] at this point in time. I might have liked Virtually Impossible if the fish hadn't spoiled it for me.

And if anybody's been watching Neighbours recently (heaven help us), then the character Rocco reminds you of a more evil Dungeon Master. Some kind of Mafia brother, perhaps.

Mint!

Thank you, James. You've done us a great service. I hope that meeting Tim Child was a highly positive experience for you, and vice versa. Interviews with him can be quite elucidating, so I look forward to seeing what he had to say.

I don't have a clue mate...

I remember one in Season 5 where there was an advisor who was over-reacting a bit when a blocker appeared but if you listened very closely you could hear Treguard say "shut up" under his breath XDDDDDD

I might make one in my barn, and put a bucket on people head. Then if they fall off a cliff or something you could hit them with a plank of wood or something. They wouldnt make the same mistakes twice in MY dungeon!

That reminded me that milk did serve as food: Julian (Series 2 Team 10) put some in his knapsack, bottle and all. The team weren't from Accrington. Accrington? As in Accrington Stanley? Who are they? Exactly, glad to see this never went past your eyes...

I've been re-watching The State Within this evening, and it occurred to me. Would Jason Isaacs make a good Treguard? http://www.bbc.co.uk/drama/thestatewithin/ Look at the eyes. Different colour to Hugo's I know, but very similar shape! And the dancing eyebrows too.
