      I'm very dizzy now (doing all those somersaults) now all I need is a cure now (Knightmare on Challange?) to cure my dizzyness.

        I know im bumping this one up after a long time, but i was absent from forum for while and now im back!! anyway, i think its almost given that KM has a huge following and would do well on DVD - ratings are good on Challenge. KM is not a gameshow - it is an adventure - a spectacle - in tape trading ceasing, the demand for DVD will be greater - for those who were going to buy them - ppl like me  ;D - it is like taking the door away from us - so close, but gone! BVA assure Granada that we will buy releases, and if Illusion, Debz, Mark Knight, Hugo and GG (where are you?!? Get back!!!) could have a commentary on it i would happily pay £18 for a DVD!!

          i know almost everyone here feels the same.

          basicly, those without knightmare episodes can get them easily and legally with a profit to the makers...etc

          if the makers are worried about piracy having shrunk the market look at it this way...if they were big enough fans to go to the trouble of getting all these tapes copied. they are def. big enough fans to see the advantages in DVD quality + extras if there are any.

              Someone else is trying to sell Knightmare tapes on Ebay, I've emailed them to suggest that they remove the item, but I don't know how much good it will do.

              The description is interesting:

              "This rare chance to see one of the best kids TV programmes shown on ITV in the early 1990's- this home recorded video contains the whole of Series 3 which is over 6 hours of tape. Sound is not brilliant but audible and there are advert breaks in between episodes."

              Hang on, maybe I have been asleep for the past two years, but hasn't it been on Challenge with about three repeats...oh and I am certain that it's due on again soon! A rare chance indeed!

                  Series 3's on right now! Evidentally this is from an earlier Challenge repeat...or a Sci-Fi one.

                  Oh, and Series 4's going to start in 2 weeks.

                      There have been no official releases of Knightmare on video or DVD, so any copies on sale are pirated and illegal. For those not aware Tim Child visits these forums, so to those promoting these sort of things be afraid beveryafraid.

                      Yes the titles in series 4 change slightly and Treguard has an elf assistant from series 4 to 6. ...still he's better than Majida.

                      Right I'm off to hide before HStorm finds me

                        Yeah - Debz is aware of the DVD and vid situation - she's a major old timer!

                            The less said about 'tape trading' the better, am sure people are more aware of that than others.

                            I spotted this last night, at least the starting bid is not near £45 as it usually is.

                              It's cheaper to subscribe to Challenge via Cable or Sky.

                                Well the person doing it, hadn't any idea that selling recordings of television programmes was illegal and now that she does she has taken the tapes off of Ebay.

                                      Not for long I suspect, it has now been reported to eBay.

                                        Unfortunatly there have been quite a few more Kmare videos on eBay in recent months. I have reported all that I have seen.

                                          Jeez, that's whack, Jack. These cretins we would be soon without, if a Knightmare DVD were out.
