Unintended Knightmare references on TV: game shows
-
In Robot Wars there was robot called 'Knightmare'
unfortunately it lost to its 3rd opponent...

Yay your back.
Did you go into a longer than planned hibernation?
-
Wasn't Skeletron the one from Techno Games that took part in the rope climb?
-
Welcome back, Snowwie! You don't know me, but welcome back anyway!
-

Brollachan: Yay your back.
Did you go into a longer than planned hibernation?

This post is in recollection of a post make by Andrew Buckley Back In The Day, entitled "Series 3 Martin's devil's-coach-horse on WWTBAM!"
I can't recall myself whether the Millionaire contestant got the question right, but it was a well-spotted reference (and just the sort of thing to put in the forum, actually!)
Anyway, today's edition of Eggheads once again featured the devil's-coach-horse (for the uninformed, a beetle, mentioned to dungeoneer Martin by Owen in a riddle to earn dragon magic), again in a multiple choice question. This time, however, the person being asked the question got it right.
That person, an Egghead, happened to be... Millionaire winner Judith Keppel.

On University Challenge last night, when Jeremy Paxman asked what type of tree Yggdrasil (the World Tree - as mentioned in two Knightmare books) is, I allowed myself to believe he was saying my username. It's an ash. He then asked what two letters make up the character ash. Thanks to the รgis Quest FAQ, I knew the answer.

Hurray!

I caught the end of Strictly Come Dancing earlier, and was surprised to see Tess Daly wearing a dress that appeared to be made out of Lord Fear's old outfit. It was even missing the right sleeve!

From this evening's Total Wipeout (another programme that could make good use of the catchphrase "Oooh, nasty")...
15:03 to 15:50. He talked so much, Amanda's life force ran out!!

Strange moment earlier when I heard Noel Edmonds say "Nightmare Dave" on Deal Or No Deal! (And oddly appropriate since today's contestant was a guy in drag!)
Lol. Was that the pantomime special one?

I've just been catching up on the Big Fat Quiz of the 80s, and I think I've spotted the perfect "son of Treguard" for when Knightmare comes back - Adam Buxton! You gotta have the right beard, after all.
And Jimmy Carr can be Pickle!
