This was always going to be an 'off-topic' that struggled. 'Iony'. I really can't add anything more. but then, I was useless in Chemistry (Burnt myself with one of those tapers, for crying out loud).

It wasn't a Bunsen Burner then! One of my jumpers go scorched by a couple of knice pupils, who decided to use it to remove a very hot gauze from a tripod. Charming weren't they. So I take it Rothberry weren't the only one who was bad at chemestry then I take it, other than me, who was completely useless at it , I could just about get a way with what H2O is .
-
Indeed. except it's H20, not H20.
D'oh!
-
the difference being??
It's just the way it's written. A superscript implies some mathematical quantity being raised to a power. The subscript is used instead to avoid confusion.
H20 means two atoms of hydrogen bonded to one atom of oxygen
H2SO4 is a bit more complicated but the idea is more or less the same, with an atom of sulphur as well.
Hmm, this is the first time I've used YABBC tags. Might use them again when I want to look flash.

If it does go to a terrestial channel, I'd like to see BBC2 pick Knightmare up, because I think it'll be most likely to find a niche there.
It's the alternative channel these days. In my opinion, C4 is rapidly losing greatness. Big Brother is the main instigator.

BBC 2 will be looking to rebuild their 6pm slot after loing The Simpsons, Robot Wars and Star Trek.
"6-Mania" on Beeb 2 used to be the best hour on TV everynight and Knightmare could be the flagship show they need to start rebuilding
-
Do you really think Knightmare is suitable for BBC2's 6-7.30pm slot? Because I don't...
The thing with The Simpsons, or Star Trek, or Buffy is that people will keep watching it, even when it's been shown so many times before...
With Knightmare, you'd get decent ratings the first time, and then I guess it would tail off...
-
And, if anything, Knightmare would keep its viewers more as its a serial - not stand alone episodes. People start to get involved. I think that the time is perfect. Knightmare back on dark, Friday nights in the run up to winter. BBC 2 has a pedigree with this sort of show plus the audience share would be high; the younger viewers would watch as it would be plugged on CBBC and all us veterans would watch too
-
One thing that Knightmare has that virtually no other programme has is that it always ends on a cliffhanger. It has a unique formula with which to snare a viewer.
Watchers always want to know what happens, and that was probably one of the main reasons people tuned into it to begin with.
-
cant have kinghtmare on channel 5 or 4. definatly the 6pm or 6.45 timeslot and give it either a full halve hour or fourty mintues. put it next to time commanders as that was a good show. Knightmare was definatly more scary int he sutumn months just before christmas. be like old times, except different.
-
I think it should return 2 ITV... ...But that's probably more impractical than Channel 5
-
Tim should try the BBC for a late Friday afternoon slot ASAP.
Why??
As soon as I heard about a Robin Hood series to be shown I immediately thought to myself KM has a chance at this time, cos if a series based on the early medieval era is going to be given a lengthy run it indicates the BBC moving away from modern day celebrity/reality drivel to more imaginative programmes. KM would fit this new strategy perfectly.
-
Would be a good idea, although depends how far ahead they have planned shcedules? KM after the Simpsons would be a good schedule maybe (have a cartoon on that kids would watch and followed straight into Knightmare). Without an advert break like it would have had on ITV it would only be about 20-25 minutes though (although 2 Episodes would be about 45 minutes so maybe 2 back to backs?)
Interesting idea though...... Also if back on BBC would give a better chance for a new series to be made
