    Lord Fear's dialogue almost matches that of Pickle's infamous "Bog Off" of Series 5.... Top work Ben, great finds.

    This one is from 1992, there's the End Credits for Victor and Hugo and then there's a clip of Tommy Boyd announcing that Knightmare is next. Check out the Frightknight Trophy in the Top Right-Hand corner of the screen.

    You know, at those end credits for Victor and Hugo, whenever they say "The Baddies" it always reminds me of the voice of Lissard....

      Some nice ads in here.

      Aside from the obvious KM content, it is nice to see such shows as Victor & Hugo and Woof! pop up in them. Ahh, such ace times, such ace shows.

        It's quite reassuring. It's good to know there actually WAS a furry version of Treasure Island starring Hugh Laurie. I honestly thought I had imagined it. And that would have caused me to start asking myself... questions.

          I hadn't seen this clip before - Knightmare trailer from 1992, followed by Tommy Boyd doing his best Lord Fear impression. 🙂

              Great memories!

              I have most of these on VHS, I love old continuity almost as much as I loved the programmes!

                  Am I the only one who never watched any of theses other shows? I was probably about 10 so kinda stopped watching CITV and the like other then the odd show.

                  Although is great to see a Beetlejuice poster in the background.

                    No you're not, I hardly watched anything on CITV apart from Knightmare. Only recognised a handful of shows on the Old Skool Weekend!

                      Same here. Don't remember Grotbag's either! I remember programs like Woof and Bad Influence, I thought they were cool!

                      I loved seeing the adverts, especially the 1 with Lord Fear and Lissard! Also great to see Tommy Boyd doing the links. Brought back great memories!

                        I remember Grotbag being on and Woof.. never watched them.

                        Don't recall eve seeing Bad Influence however.

                        I used to watch Conan the Adventurer lol that first aired in 92, so about the same time as theses other shows. but can't remember what channel it was on.

                        I can't really remember what else I liked back then, I think half the time the tv was just on the background when I got home from school but there was only a few shows I really liked. (Dungeons and dragons, trapdoor were others but they were a bit earlier)

                        But that Woof think I hated, I've never liked 'kid actors' never. lol

                          I didn't either; mostly because I was 117 when Knightmare started

                          Uhm...?

                          Ahem. Anyway. I've posted this elsewhere on this forum (the Cliff Barry thread, to be exact), but I thought I may as well put it here too since it's relevant. A quick trailer showing a montage of CITV shows from 1993, including a little bit of Knightmare, specifically Lissard.

                          Exhumed from a tape I have of episodes of Tiny Toon Adventures!

                            I loved them as well. Friday nights were great. I wish I'd had to foresight to tape all the Victor & Hugo episodes since the series is so damn' hard to find nowadays. Thankfully, over the years I collected almost all of them. Same goes for Knightmare of course, though thanks to Challenge and Youtube, we can watch them any time. We need DVDs of all these shows!
