    I've confused myself. I think I'll go shopping.

          Brother Mace

          A Stereotypical Robin Hood/Firer Tuck Monk.

          A freindly Man of god who had a weekness for strong drink & a spot of gambaling.

            Actually, put that way you're probably right. I overlooked him because there are times when he sounds quite deep and mysterious, but you're right  -  the humble man of God with amiable vices is quite an overused character device.

              I don't mind Mace's character, since usually there was a little story going on around him. And if he's a stereotype, at least he's a pretty interesting one. Unlike some, Olaf. Ho ho ho, he's a Viking with a bad Scandinavian accent. Gosh, what a great creation.

                I always thought that Olaf was funny.

                With his cries of

                "Ze Lootings And Ze Pilligings."

                  Stereotypes are frequently funny, they're just not good writing.

                    I wasn't arguing that he wasn't a sterotype I just didn't think he was too badly writen.

                    At lest not any worse then some of the characters in the early series.

                      The way that Skarkill said 'lovely' reminds me of a character on the comedy show The Mary Whitehouse Experience (which despite the title was nothing to do with MW, who was so kind to Knightmare in its early days) whose catchphrase was 'Lovely! Milky milky!'

                          See that milky-milky man? That's Hugh Dennis in a dirty mac, that is.

                            As coincidence would have it, a couple of weeks ago I found websites that have episodes of TMWE (the original, much better, radio version) available for download.

                            You can visit  http://www.tmwe.co.uk/  for all of them, although the site's accessibility comes and goes quite erratically.

                            http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~crosers/tmwe.htm is a good secondary source for episodes from the final season on radio.

                            Sorry, no milky-milky man in the radio version.

                              Thanks, HStorm. I knew you'd know about TMWE!

                              "CHARMING DRASSIL. VERY CHARMING."

                              "TELL ME DO YOU KNOW WHAT THESE ARE?"

                              "HEHEHEHEHEH...LOVELY"

                              Skarkill, 'Milky Milky Man' was a very entertaining comic character, and my comparison was meant as a compliment to both.
