      Hehe! Well, I think the only way is to get hold of some episodes.

                What about a lil Fairy flying away from a Hoggle armed with a spray gun, and as your life force depletes Hoggle catches up, and when you die he squirts the fairy and it flops on the floor!

                          In my early days when I had waaaaaaaaay too much time on my hands I made a flip-book type thingy with the skull lifeforce but that's about it.

                          Must ... destroy ... quiches!!!

                            Great idea Ark! The flaming pastry thing really really made me angr.. hold on - flaming pastry?? FESTUS! STOP BREATHING ON THE FOOD!! Sorry coulndt resist Anyway, the skull is what i remember most of Knightmare - i remember as a Kidsie my dad had to watch it with me - in fact he misses it too - because i was scared of Mr Grimwold, the Goblins when in Dwarf Tunnel, and the Life Force - still creeps me out now, but excellent idea!

                              Did you become a biology major or something?

                              I personally do not enjoy seeing skin peeling off skulls. I don't know whether you have some kind of kick out of it, or you thought it was "cool" because it was gross, but I don't like it. Especially the bit where the camera passes through the eye of the skull.

                              Woooh... that's one of the things I didn't like about the LF clock... shiver The whole skull on its own is creepy, too...

                                I liked the skull, but life-force doesn't seem to matter in the later series (except that time when they got their health back from a drop of water)

                                What about a quiche slowly rotting away until there's only the crust left...

                                  It's a pie, not a quiche or anything else that was used in series 8.

                                    to many people seem to say the old life force was sick/disgusting/scary and even dark.. i for one way BAH.

                                    It was none of them, it was 'real' in the scene of what real is when it comes to life and the world of knightmare/imagination and tv. Maybe a little difficult to watch for younger views, but it was true to it form.

                                    i think the pie is far more in the 'darker' side because it doesn't resemble human life when thats exactly what it represents. plus it crap.

                                      I thought the old life force was one of the things that made Knightmare even more special for me, very much so in the death sequence when the eye balls rolled past you and you heard the bell chimes. Unforgetable.

                                        The sound effects that went with the original life-force really kicked. I thought some of the most chilling death sequences were in series four - because of the way the life-force was used.

                                        The Mogdred sword death was great.

                                        They didn't use a knell, just a slowing heart-beat and cracking bone. Awesome.

                                          The original Life Force clock was great!

                                          I don't think it was scary by itself...but it helped to build up the tension. And it's such a vivid image, that most people can remember it years after the event.
