Re-creating the show
-
We used to sometimes play blind-mans-buff at parties, you would either end up along way away from where you were supposed to be going, going nowhere at all/staying in the same place, on someone's lap, tripping over something or someone! I'm not surprised if it did get banned from primary schools. Just look at the other games that have been banned because they are apparently "too dangerous".
To the idiot that put his head through the door window I have to say one thing... "Ouch!"

My best friend from primary school and I used to play something we imaginatively titled 'The Knightmare Game' in the Christmas term when it had started up on TV again. It was more like the stories from Labyrinths of Fear, Fortress of Assassins and so on than the actual show and we pretended to be the fearless adventurers in strange lands, meeting a good few Knightmare characters along the way - you get the picture.
Actually, it became 'The Crystal Maze Game' in the summer term when that was on TV, substituting Treguard with Richard o' Brien, so I suppose it was a generic kind of fantasy game you play when you're young.

Although I haven't done it recently, I used to do a lot of stand-up comedy. Once, during my set, I mentioned Knightmare and suddenly, every member of the audience decided to give a personal recollection of the series including how they used to play it. Nice, but when you've only got ten minutes...!

It was quite violent though.
We blindfolded a friend, dressed up in rented costumes, filmed him and his three guides. it worked really well, no special effects though. The thing is if they did stray from the path they would fall several feet into a sand pit, as one of us did. Anger a knight - you get literally beaten up.
I know it sounds painful and sadistic but hey! it makes it seem like your on a real quest

Ooo Nasty!

Substitute items such as the ACME Hammer (series 6) for a real hammer or mallet. I hope you didn't try to recreate a version of the corridor of blades.
