Knightmare Commentary Tracks
-
Glad you've been enjoying them DJ, I'm finding them fascinating to listen to as well.
From what I gather, there's an overhaul of the site in the works that will feature more regular news updating. It's being handled by Mysteria, who's responsible for the Aegis Quest website, so I predict awesomeness. In the meantime though, if you're on Twitter then you can get news of the most recent commentaries by following KnightmareAP. Giving us a RT every now and then will certainly help spread the love.
I have to agree with you Dark Comet, in that I have found the commentaries very interesting & enjoyable so far. For example, I was listening to Martin Odoni (a.k.a HStorm)'s S5 E1 one last night & was surprised when he was saying about how Smirkenoff's head wasn't actually part of the puppet-thing that the dungeoneer sat in and was all done seperately on blue-screen etc. I guess that's how they were able to do those close-up head shots then. Also, on one of the S3 ones, Jake ''EyeShield'' Collins made me chuckle when he was wondering who had been teaching that raven thing to talk, due to the rather strange things that he says, such as ''Hello, Sailor!'' & ''Who's a pretty boy then?'' etc. Maybe it was Dale Winton or Christopher Biggins! Lol Jake is good on on his own, but I also like the ones with his sister Rosey, as they are quite amusing at times. Martin, Jake & Rosey are all big fans of the show & it's interesting to hear their thoughts and opinions on various things, so long may these commentaries continue!...
Great news about Mysteria giving the site an updating, as it does need it in some places, as some of the video clips could now be replaced with better quality ones for example. Still, Nicholas Lam did do a great job with this site originally though, as it was one of the first websites I ever visited when I first got the 'net back in 1999!...
If Treguard had ever of had a sex change (like what Holly did in ''Red Dwarf'') between seasons then she would've been perfect to have played the female version!
I have often thought that a female Dungeon Master (Dungeon Mistress?) would be interesting. Dunno if NJR would be that good a choice though, as, for all the similar facial features she has to Hugo, she just doesn't strike me as weird or sinister enough. Although I've never seen her try to play a character that way, so I could well be wrong. Either way, an Anglo-Saxon Dungeon Master with a tough, Govan city-girl accent does sound a little incongruous to me.
I guess they could always do a 'Darth Vader' & have NJR playing the female dungeon master, but get someone else with a more powerful & scary voice to dub-over the dialogue, like what James Earl Jones did to Dave Prowse in the ''Star Wars'' films etc. Maybe NJR would be a bad choice, but who could be a good female dungeon master then? I can't think of any suitable actress at the moment...

The final commentaries recorded in 2009 have just been uploaded to kick off the New Year - Jake and Rosey take us through episodes 9 & 10 of season 5. You can download them from the usual site, http://www.kmramdram.co.uk/tvcommentaries.htm .

That track for season 5 episode 1 that I mentioned above is now available.
Good news, I'll download & listen to it later. It's a shame that you don't plan to do anymore commentaries, as I would like to hear a Series 7 & 8 one, as you haven't done one yet & I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the final 2 series.

Excellent news! I always enjoy Jake Collins' commentarties - either by himself or with his sister Rosey. I have to agree with most of his comments about Series 7 & 8 though, especially the final episode of Series 8!...

Evenin' all.
Four new commentaries are now available for download from http://www.kmramdram.co.uk/tvcommentaries.htm. Jake will be taking a break from commentating for a little while, but he's rounded off his current stint at the mic with two fresh tracks, for the first two episodes of season six. (Don't worry, Jake'll be back in action soon, he just he thought he should let a couple of others take a turn, on the subject of which...)
Meanwhile, one of the 'old heads' of the Audio Play team makes his debut at the mic as Ricky Temple shares his thoughts on episodes 5 and 6 of season 4.

My 'break' may not turn out to be much of a break at all, actually, thanks to some planned collaborations.
That's great news Eyeshield, as all of your commentaries have been excellent so far, so I'm looking forward to some new ones. Is Rosey going to do anymore of them with you though?...
-
There is talk of a commentary featuring me, Rosey, Ricky Temple and Andy Marshall, which may turn out to be totally incomprehensible, but should be a laugh anyway.
Once Ricky and Andy have taken their pick of episodes, I will return to fill in any gaps, and I expect Rosey will be more than happy to join me.

Thanks, Mod! The list of outstanding commentaries can now be found here:

Is there any chance of Martin Odoni (a.k.a HStorm) doing one final commentary? I know he's said that he doesn't plan to do anymore, but he hasn't done any for either Series 7 or 8 yet, so it would be good for him to finish off his commentaries with one more, or possibly two, as it would be good to hear his thoughts & comments on the final 2 KM series.

We'll wait and see. There are quite a few other commentaries in the pipeline, including some new voices, and I'd like to see all of them getting a turn before I do any more myself. After that, I may do a few more to fill in any odd gaps.
-
Three new commentary tracks are now available for download. Rosey Collins has her first outing of 2010 as she and Jake take us through episode 3 of season 8. And we also have another debutant, as Ross Thompson commentates on episodes 2 and 15 from season 7.
-
A new Jake & Rosey commentary is now available, for season 7, episode 3, usual address.
I've also added an extra line to the top of the page, which will indicate the most recent update to the commentaries list. When the odd new commentary is uploaded now and again I shan't bother to announce it here, but you can keep an eye on the page itself for announcements of the latest new addition.
-
The first of the new collaborations is now available to download, as Jake Collins and Andy Marshall take us through episode 5 of season 6, recorded via Skype.
Thanks for letting us all know about the new commentaries available HStorm, but I do hope that you do at least one more yourself, as I really would like to hear you do one for both Series 7 & 8, as you haven't as yet and I'd like to hear your thoughts on the final 2 series of KM etc.
-
Sorry for the prolonged delay between uploads, but my PC was out of commission for a while. Two new collaboration tracks have been uploaded today, with Jake and Ross giving thoughts on season 5 episode 15 and season 8 episode 8. A fresh track by Ricky Temple will follow as soon as I can find where I stored it on my PC; oh the joys of locating data when you've just re-installed an OS...
-
Newly available are four more commentaries with Jake "Eyeshield" Collins and Ross "Raven's Eye" Thompson:
Season 7, Episode 4.
Season 5, Episode 16.
Season 5, Episode 15.
Season 5, Episode 7 (also featuring Rosey Collins).
NB: Head/ear-phones are strongly recommended when listening to the first three commentaries listed there, and make sure the volume is turned all the way up on all volume controls involved!
