    Do you reckon, as I do, that all the flurry of recent activity suggests that Challenge TV are about to bid to show the NEW series of KM?

      Challenge showing Series 9,

      thinks

      Not a bad Idea HStorm if I may say.

      but they still have to show Series 1 & 2,

      But at least their showing Series 6, 7 & 8.

            I don't happen to believe Challenge? will get KM9, to be honest....But that is just my theory.  Methinks a larger company will get it.

              Anyone take a guess at another company who might win it?

                ITV or maybe Sky Broadcasting. Sky has the rights to show the newest Series of 24, the last of which was shown on the BBC. If Sky Broadcasting have enough money to outbid the BBC, maybe they're a real contender...

                  I know who my money is on! However, I'm not sure if it's appropriate to commentate on something as potentially huge as this - something is going on behind the scenes and has been for quite a while now, imo. I think it might be prudent in this case if we don't discuss the commissioning. The process itself is, I imagine, a highly delicate process. Perhaps we should sit in the background (discussing privately, of course!) and wait for events to take their course.

                    I am pretty sure that if Challenge get anything they will get Timegate though because...

                      That's very curious - TimeGate was not mentioned in the initial post. JamesP may well have given the game away (or at least one of them!)

                            Don't forget what Tim Child said about TimeGate in the interview.

                              WOO-HOO!!  ;D  Series 6, 7 and 8 one after the other - I can't wait!

                              I already have Series 6 on video but the quality isn't that good so I'm going to record it again.  If you haven't seen it for ages, boy are you in for a treat - it's one of the best series ever!  I'm especially looking forward to Series 7, especially Julie's and the one and only Barry's quests!  And I also look forward to enjoying Series 8 more this time  - I'll appreciate it more this time round, I think.  

                              YAY FOR CHALLENGE!!!  ;D  ;D  ;D

                                I agree with Kieran. I don't think what Tim Child has said recently or a while back truly tallies with a channel like Challenge getting the new KM. I also doubt it is the type of thing Challenge are looking for- in my opinion they're much more likely to try to get something like TimeGate, which is aimed at a young adult market, to whom their "old" Knightmare has appealed. You might say that a new KM would appeal to us oldies too, but I'm not sure if Challenge would see it that way. In any case, if it's a popular project, one would hope bigger players would be interested anyway.

                                  Is there an age restriction in Knightmare VR?

                                    No one knows yet, although presumably there will be one. Those of us over 18 will proably have to go for Timegate instead.

                                      Ah well!

                                      If we could I'm in for it! Is Timegate similar to Knightmare then?

                                        It will be when they get round to making it. Different scenario, but apparently the rules are likely to be more like the original KM's than KM VR's.

                                          Yes, from the evidence we have so far my feeling is the two shows' age ranges would be exclusive. However, I guess if there's a problem setting someone to show one of them for one range, there's always the last ditch possibility of changing it slightly in terms of who it's aimed at, although that obviously depends on whether the programme in question would easily convert. Ho hum.
