    Have you got your viewing card yet?  I got Sky installed a couple of weeks before Knightmare started around Christmas, I thought the guy would bring round the viewing card but he didn't!  😮

    So I had to ring Sky up to get a card.  Thankfully it arrived in a few days so I was able to watch Knightmare  😎

      No - the woman on the phone at Sky didn't mention anything about a viewing card, I hope the man brings one or I'll miss the start of Knightmare! But my mum (who phoned Sky) did say that this was the first time we would have Sky Digital so surely they'd acknowledge the fact that we need a viewing card!

      Do you think I should phone Sky again and ask them to make sure that he brings one?

        Perhaps. Best not to panic though.

          Yep - I'd ring them to make sure that a card is on its way.  After I had Sky setup, the installer said "Right where's your viewing card then?"

          Me:What viewing card?

          Him: The one Sky should have posted you...

              For instants my mum always cooks supper late so that it always seems to be ready around about 7.30/45pm, which is really annoying when Knightmare is on. Also it is annoying having supper so late anyway whether Km is on or not. So anyway what annoys/irretates you then?

                I have to say that temporal disruption always annoyed me all those years ago (and it does a little now, but without it km wouldn't be km) simply because I knew I had to wait a whole week until next friday for it to come on again! So I used to watch the episode I had recorded again, and again, and again.

                Pixel used to agitate me, and the shortcut (as I mentioned in room 101 thread), cutting out a level was a bit dodgy. Having said that I remember enjoying Dunstan's quest all those years ago, so I won't say anything more.

                And I have to admit, despite loving challenge, the announcer comments at the end of km episodes get on one's nerves.

                    People who insist teams were "let off".

                    Mellisandre irritates me full stop. That whiny voice gets on my nerves.

                    The Door Monsters in S4. Having to listen to "Oh dear oh dear" every single quest is excruciating. Throw in the "true and false" bit and you have my least favourite part of KM.

                        Challenge TV changing repeat times at short notice and deciding not to repeat an episode for no apparent reason.

                          Weeping Doors,

                          When I hear "Oh dear, Oh dear" it very irretates me.

                            Merlin's spellcasting length.

                            Well, someone had to say it

                              Pixel was annoying.

                              Also something which applied in series 5/6 - not sure until I see them again - where when a dungeoner died and we started at level 1.

                              They death was bad enough but we started at the long and repetative level 1 again.

                                  Just curious on this, KM Fan, what annoys you about the Trial By Spikes?

                                  Personally the overuse of causeways in the middle seasons and Majida are the main things that annoy (aside the aformentioned spellcasting lengths of certain characters)

                                    I'm really not sure, it was just a strange room, but strange in a good sort of way.

                                    You mentioned above the overuse of the causeways. I think they should have been used less, and they should have been harder to solve. If it were series 3, there would be clues scattered around, and some thinking involved.

                                      Mindless repetition of S4 irritates a little, having the same rooms in the same order is a little tideous, although when there IS a change you notice it even more!

                                        I agree with the S4 thing.

                                        "Let's not forget the opposition" - said the same time at the same point in every quest. And the calling for the doors was atrocious.

                                        And also people who claim Barry and Dunstan were rigges quests. Right on, Thanatos!

                                          I'm sorry to add to a growing number - but I'd also stake a claim for the Weeping Doors. It wasn't just the basic repetition of them appearing every single level, but the voices were just of a tone difficult to cope with. Adding to that, every question was a single true or false, given a rather weak strand to the general knowledge purpose of it all, and they also, frustratingly, took up a lot of time. Mind you, while I will tend to pick lots of personal faults with S4, I still love watching it, wouldn't have it any other way, and if the development led to further series' being so exceptional, then I can't compain.
