    I have an idea! If Challenage showed a "Knightmare day" with back to back episodes showing all day. That way my friend can record them for me on only one day!

      Mm, that was suggested on another thread a few days ago. Can't say for sure but the impression I got is that people aren't in favour of that. Viewers are sick to death of Takeshi's Castle because Challenge keep showing episodes by the lorry-load, and I have a nasty suspicion that they'll feel the same about KM if we get overloaded with that.

        I'd personally welcome a KM day, yet it would damage the show if it were to happen.

        Still, the tapes will do if I want a marathon!

          I think Challenge have gotten their showings of Knightmare pretty fine, for now.

          It's on quite frequently, yet of course the only draw back would be not having Challenge.

          For those ol' deprived souls who dont own copies of Knightmare, the showings at 7.30pm will do.

            I don't see the point, sorry. I could be working all day that day, and miss most of a series because it was shown throughout one day.

            It has a pretty good timeslot atm

              yeah it was me who posted that and not many people liked it, i sugested a omnibus show all the episodes that were on during the week to put them all on the weekend.

                But then again, the amount of Takeshi's Castle they show has probably out dragged Knightmare by miles. A half-day or day won't hurt anyone... It's not very funny, only Craig Charles' commentary is! Besides it's full of Japs and no others...

                  "It's full of Japs and no others"? What's wrong with that? Should we avoid watching episodes of Knightmare that only feature white English teams then?

                    Oops, sorry...

                    I was meant to say, why can't there be other contestants in it and not just the Japanese...

                      Because it's made in Japan. It's an awful long way for other people to travel just to play in a glorified adventure playground. If anyone from elsewhere had gone to all the effort of getting there and applying, I'm sure they'd have been allowed in, I just doubt anyone tried.

                      This is like asking, "Why is it only people from the British Isles ever appeared in Knightmare and no one from anywhere else?"

                        The problem is that there are only a limited number of episodes. Showing a batch of them in one day would mean that a series you shelled out a lot for would be more or less finished - money for something that would be shown over a couple of weeks at least would instead be blown in a single day.

                          Exactly, Mal. The only way for* Challenge* to fill the schedules for the rest of the week is to shell out money for more episodes... and as we said before, people will start getting bored if Knightmare is on ALL the time.

                              But I don't have Challenage so a KM day would mean my friend could easily record them for me! I don't want to ask her to record KM every day!

                                  Well that depends, Tomyboy. A KM day would tie up your friend's VCR all day, whereas one ep every 24 hours would only tie it up for 20-odd minutes per day.

                                      I hadn't thought of that! Thanks! When is KM ep 1 on?
