Series 6 - Episode 4

FrightKnight

I may have misread it in the credits, but that is the correct spelling..."dreadnort", isn't it?

I always thought it was Dreadnought...oh well.

Skarkill

Well you ain't alone there Frightknight.

Thats what I always thought it was to $:-\$

Hey Kidsies,

How is everyone?

I missed tonight's ep cause I was at work so I checked on Challenge to see when the repeat was on and I notice there is a repeat at 5:30am as well as 1:30am, my question is, is the one at 5:30am the next episode or another repeat of today's? (I hope that made sense )

Love and peace

Purgatory

they didn't need a necklace,

if you read the scroll it talks about gambling (the bag of gold coins)

the clue was to use the bag of coins on the one who sees/wants amber.. hence the word 'gamble'

the blood stone isn't some to gamble with when you have a choose to play with money huh?

HStorm

Gold is gold, not amber. In KM (when not discussing the Life Force Clock) amber means witch amber, and Heggaty was very specific that that was what she was talking about, not gold. And there's nothing to stop people gambling with a firestone or a necklace.

Also, we didn't see any clear indication that the bag contained any coins at all, only that it contained gold. It might've been gold dust or gold ingots in the bag for all we could see.

Billy

Although the Dreadnought (Dreadnort?) clearly didn't fulfill his promise of taking a limb (Maybe it's just a sentimental old softy at heart and felt sorry for the girls) it was nice to see the knew death animation at the end, especially when the skeleton went green at the end.

I agree with Porsmond about this new team, the 'I think the magnifying glass is magical' line made me chuckle for some reason. Who knows, even at this early stage in the game, they might turn out to be winners!

Fear

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to point something out about tonight's episode - am I alone in thinking that even though the scroll the girls picked up in Level 2 hinted that they needed to pick up some amber, they didn't have a chance to collect any before encountering the witch? Have to say it was a bit harsh of our bearded master and his elf sidekick to give the team a hard time about it if this was case.... or is it me being thick???

Enjoyed the episode apart from that, other than the threat by Lord Fear's robot to tear limbs off not being carried out - maybe the gruesome deaths of the early series made the programme makers hold back a bit on too many gory scenes!

Bill

I was wondering that myself.

Purgatory

It doesn't matter,

the fact that the scroll gave clues to take the gold and they didn't. we don't know how things would have been played out if they took the correct item.

But level 2 what a load of garbage, they pretty much had nothing to worry about it was so easy.

Fidjit

I reckon they should have had a yellow gem or something similar to the elven and fire stones.

Melisandrinoff

I assumed they should have taken the bag of gold on the table and not the firestone, because that was where the scroll was too. There wouldn't have been much point in telling them that then, if it was the witch amber they needed, because they already didn't have the witch amber. Does that make sense? Gold is more amber than a firestone is

Fidjit

I never saw it, but if I were them I'd take anything which looks like any shade of yellow!

Melisandrinoff

Yeah, that would have made a whole lot of sense

Strange they didn't really, they were a really good team.

Fidjit

I liked their interaction with the other characters...

They were polite. The next dungeoneer said something rather arrogant to one of his advisors:

Advisor: "Take two sidesteps to your left..."

Dungeoneer: "Does it help I can see the table!"

Melisandrinoff

Yeah, I always like polite teams It's good to say thank you! And Sumaya was really good - she didn't always have to be spoonfed by her advisors. Yeah, this new team seems a bit arrogant - maybe they'll improve with tonight's episode...looks forward to it

Fidjit

I can't see it until 01:30am but I'm not risking it...

That's why I want them to shift it back to an earlier place, 'cos my Mom and Dad are there before me watching something else and my VCR is packing up

Melisandrinoff

I always set the tape for the 1:30 one, cos someone else is always using the TV at 7:30. It's annoying, cos it means I only get one chance to tape it and if the VCR craps up, then I miss it - which is what happened with the first one, no-one had put the VCR clock forward an hour, grrrr....still, since then it seems to be working ok. Yeah, what is with VCRs??! They never work properly...good luck with making yours behave

Fidjit

snerk It would be so much easier using Sky Plus wouldn't it?

MoanaLiza

Only if you've got Sky+, can't you tell the person/people that what you're watching is more important than they are watching or get them to watch it on another tele, unless of course they are they bill payer, then that would be a bit difficult. I always find that people want to watch something when I do. They wont watch anything other times, just mainly when I want to. I can't catch the early morning ep as it's too late. I doubt I'll be able to watch any of tonight's ep because my mum has decided to watxh tele!

Purgatory

Amber and yellow look nothing alike,

The scroll said Gamble and there was a bag of gold.

Was is a fire stone or Blood stone?? is there really and difference?

Selphie

Re the whole witch amber debate: I think the necklace did look amber, or at least enough that they should have thought a bit more about it. I can see why they didn't immediately link the necklace with the amber but I don't think it was so obscure. The shield drink was a good call and a nice tie in with their quest. The whole clue room seemed a bit rushed, maybe they thought about it a lot more and we just didn't see it.

LF : Now, who should I shout at?

giggles classic LF. Love it. On a random tangent his nails are very cool.

Witch Haven looks nice, very grand. I think it was a shame they got rid of it for S7. I really felt for the team at the moment when they realised that they had the wrong item from the clue room and that the necklace was in fact amber. S6 also seems to have a lot more rooms; for example I don't think that we see the room Sumaya dies in again. I do quite like the falling skeleton graphic for the life force death although it never was as scary as the original face (but still a million times better then the S8 pie.....).

Next up team 3. All the teams so far seem to have been quite old. Another lad who's taller then Treguard! Anyone know how tall Hugo Myatt actually is out of interest?

The "I reckon the magnifying glass is magical" is an odd comment. Also when he reads the scroll and says "No, you can't get it off" is that the ribbon he can't get off? In which case it's surely a bit silly that the team can see the scroll on the screen.
