    I agree with the above ^^^

    I put Km in the box, but I think if I'd been given absolute freedom I'd have voted

    • Knightmare

    • The Tomorrow People (1992-1995 remake, not the crappy original)

    • Bad Influence!

    • the Frank Skinner show

    • the Avengers

    Y'know, it occurs to me that ITV is a bit of a crap channel, seeing as that's all I can come up with (actually, I thought of the Prisoner as well, but you're only allowed five). I came up with six properly good ITV shows 😐

    If it were BBC1, 2 or channel 4 I could do a list as long as my arm

      My god, they really haven't a clue, have they? Out of the whole list, I only found one that I liked.

        Yeah it really is a bit of a poor showing - fifity years and that's the best that they can do?

        I voted:

        An Audience with... (only because I saw the excellent Victoria Wood the other night on ITV2 or 3)

        Heartbeat (genuinly good Sunday night drama)

        The Muppet Show (genuinly good: a classic!)

        Spitting Image (from the few repeats I've seen and documentaries I've seen)

        This is Your Life (I remember this as a BBC show though!)

          Is it me or does there only seem to be one or two, maybe three from the KM era? Most of the shows are pre 80s or post 95. I guess that I can't vote though as I could only see one or two listed that I like. I'll study the list again though to see if I change my mind.

            I think this calls for a "Vote for Knightmare " site campaign as per the Channel 4 100 Greatest Kid's TV Shows. I will prepare something...

                ITV has gone down in standard really since 1993-94 and now it's a horrible channel in my opinion. Anyways I've nominated Knightmare too. It thoroughly deserves a place in the top 50 for sure.

                  As always ITV are in denial of the simple fact...

                  They axed a great TV show that everybody loved.

                  Probably the same people who came up with that list. Honestly..."Ant and dec"? "Pop idol"?

                  Idiots.

                    Voted.

                    ITV are definitely the worst terrestrial channel.

                      I don't believe that list, I honestly do not..

                      How can they include shows such as "Footballers’ Wives", and not Knightmare?

                        I thought Footballers' Wives was a Sky programme?

                          No, it's shown on ITV1.

                            I wouldn't think this top 50 will be that meaningful to many people anyway. People might mention what got number one but its unlikely this will be discussed for years to come. Knightmare tops all them shows in my opinion!

                            Definitely agree with the vicious circle idea said earlier.

                              Dear dear, it does look rather poor, doesn't it?

                              Suffice to say, Knightmare has been voted for by myself. This show should easily be in the list given what they have to offer us. No wonder ITV struggles so much to keep an audience these days, what with Footballer's Wives and Love Island headlining their listings each week.

                              Still, here's more hope for Knightmare.

                                Knightmare has received another vote, courtesy of myself.

                                I also voted for The Muppet Show as I believe that the decision to omit Knightmare from the main list of 50 could only be as a result of some action taken by a group of muppets....

                                  KM Recives yet another vote.

                                  What a UN-LOVELY List of choices!!

                                  Appart from

                                  Inspector Morse & The Sweeny (with the great John Thaw RIP)

                                  And

                                  Cracker (Robbie Coltrane) it was a pretty naff representation of ITV.
