After Series 3.....
-
Two Episodes Left! , i hope Challenge does get the rights to the other series, as it's been a real joy to watch Knightmare again.
Absolutly, and I agree with you, It really has been a absolute joy to watch Knightmare again after all these years(This is the first time I've watched an entire series for 9 years) and I think Challenge should be congratulated for bringing it back to our screens, it has certaintly brought back wonderful memories.
Lets remember though that if Knightmare is a success(and I'm sure it has) then its a good bet they will get the rights for more series, however my personal opinion is that Series 3 will be shown 1 more time before any decision is made, but hopefully I can be proved wrong and Challenge will suprise us with another series in March
Like I said above, look on the Challenge webpage on Monday 24th Feb, that is when they will post their first weekend schedule for March, and if Knightmare is continued in the same schedule,then we could be in for a suprise(in other words, another series) or that Challenge will simply be repeating Series 3 again??

I have been on the verge of slightly tearful beholding this TREASURE from TV history in ALMOST it's entirety, as I ONLY found out it was on by accident - you shuld have seen my reaction. Nearly woke up the whole street. ;D
Why would Challenge refuse an opportunity to show something that is CLEARLY in it's category?
Knightmare was the DEFINITION of Challenges, and as such warrents a MUCH deserved re-run on the channel, owing to it's history and INIMITABLE style.
Challenge should listen to the people, and give THEM something GENUINELY classic, instead of the same old re-runs of 'Bruce's price is right' and 'Family fortunes'...
Still - Everyone tune in tomorrow, as the dungeon phase is nearing it's end. MOST of us know how it goes, but it's the sheer PRINCIPLE of our love of this show that is the reason we watch it.
Long live KNIGHTMARE!!!!

They already said they were going to repeat series 3. But it's probably not to late to change their minds. Get over to http://www.challengetv.co.uk/ubb/Forum5/HTML/000144.html, register and get them to show the rest of the series.

Well i for one hope they come to their senses and show series 4 and give the programme justice.

Series 1 and 2 definitely need showing - Treguard at his most malevolent.

There's a thread on the Challenge? forum where people have tried to persuade them to change their decision. More voices of support are always welcome:
-
The Final word is(for anyone that cant be bothered to check the other threads) that Challenge does not currently have plans to show any more series, however they would not rule out the possibility of showing the programme again sometime in the future.
However episodes 4-13 of Series 3 will be repeated again throughout March at the usual times on Saturday and Sunday at 10AM or 5PM(at least I presume it will be at the same times) with Episodes 1-3 being shown in another Cult Selection being shown in May, After that who knows what will happen, Prehaps if the repeats prove to be successful with rating numbers, they might suprise us with showing another series, but dont bank on it just yet

Tim Child himself aka beveryafraid has explained the situation (in the Filthy Challenge thread).
Knightmare is very expensive, what with Equity fees and so on. It was a huge stroke of good fortune that Challenge decided to shell out for just one series, let alone all of them.
