Series 7 - Episode 15

Many thanks for the extra info., Barry. Very interesting.
On a minor point, I'm John, not James.

After watching some series 7 and the end of season with the falling troll it has made me realise that the play your cards right is NOT to kill the dungeoneer.
It is more of a trap to cradle snatch Kidsies ;).
The troll falls through this puzzle and lands on top of lord fear -so this obviously indicates when a dungeoneer falls off one of the ledges and treguard says ooooh Nasty - it is not because the dungeoneer has fallen to his maker - it is because he has fallen into lord fears cradle snatching arms which are waiting below to catch the dungeoneer like a baby. ;Dlol
Lame I know but its a theory to the observation .

It is strange that the troll falls through there and lands on him. My explanation, I suppose, is that technospace doesn't obey the same laws as real space. But quite an amusing suggestion, anyway.

Yep, final episode! Some great moments today - I particularly liked when the goblin fell down on the Play Your Cards Right puzzle! Also a good moment was when Barry tried to pretend his name was "Lord Fear's Top Henchman" and offer to 'guard' Romahna. Eventually they had to fool him into drinking a Freeze potion instead.
Team were let off twice in this episode! Firstly in the room with the dripping water, the life force graphic was down to the skeleton while Barry was still running around the room. They cut back to the advisers for a second, then when they cut back the life force graphic had rewound slightly! Had they stayed on the main screen for the whole time, the skeleton would have fallen and Game Over.
They were also let off in the Corridor of Blades. The lower-right blade where Barry had to get up and sidestep to the left quickly, that definitely touched him! Too close to the end of the series to be worth starting a new quest!
The Fast Backward was a good effect. "Smirkenoff looks good in reverse!" The team's win was rigged though, it wasn't a proper 'win' as such since the eye-shield changed into the Shield of Justice. Probably a last minute decision to make the team into a winning team! Did you notice that the Shield of Justice was just the eye-shield with a new paint job?

Slightly cheated death in the corridor of blades. Like the 'Monty Python' style troll hammer.
Also I noted that without the adverts the final episode was only 22/3 minutes long, one of the shorter episodes.
-
If you see the quest chamber you can see the 2nd Eye Shield/Shield of Justice in one of the force feilds.
Anyway...
Bye bye Series 7, Bye to Marta, Rohmana, Marta, Grimaldine, the Brollachan, Fidget and Greystagg.
I feel sorry for Lord Fear, that's 2 Series Finales in a row he's been crushed.
Those Blades where going pretty fast in the Corridor of Blades.
oh and bye to the Troll aswell as the one that crushed Lord Fear, that one knew, 6 words and can count to 5.

I got the impression that Sylvester Hands was getting confused by Barry.

There seems to be something funny about me and end of KM series- on the night before the last episode of Series 6 on Challenge, I dreamt it (albeit a warped, twisted end of series) and on the night before the start of Series 7 on Challenge, I dreamt that too. Except, in this dream, Treguard, Pickle (!) and two random advisors were in the Crystal Dome, Ed Tudor Pole era (!!) as well as two other people, one man and one woman, in suits. Then Mogdred appeared (!!!) and turned everyone red, to which Treguard manically laughed (!!!!) and then sheepishly stopped. Then Pickle looked into the camera, revealing that he's turned into Majida (!!!!!) and the credits rolled up. Downright bizarre, in my opinion!
Anyway, onto the REAL end of series 7 now. A LOT of things happened in this episode, including a goblin falling off the Play Your Cards Right ledge, and that Barry touched a different card at the end compared to Julie's team and still got through. Still, the Joker is a 'wild card' I guess. Then came the bit where Barry and Co almost, almost ran out of life force, but they noticed the dripping water just in time. After finding a stray shellphone, we saw the seemingly annual appearance of the Corridor of Blades! Barry came VERY close to some of them, but luckily missed the rather fast blades by about an inch. Both this and the dripping water do indeed look like bits where he was let off, though. Then we had Barry's classic banter with Sly Hands, along with Grippa and Rhark (alive and well!) followed by Barry choosing the troll hammer over the Shield, something I probably would have done too. After drinking the potion we had a marvellously surreal bit where Barry did his entire quest backwards (leading Derek to say 'Smirkenoff looks good in reverse', as was pointed out earlier!) before heading back to Knightmare Castle just in time. Anyone else notice Derek pointing in astonishment at the troll popping up? Still, a well deserved victory, and I'm glad they all got their trophies. Next Monday, we'll be zooming forward a year to September 1994 for the start of Series 8!
