    Surely that was deliberate.

    Surely? <¦-)

      Of course it was deliberate. Do you think I'm a fool, dearies? Wait, don't answer that.

      And if that smiley is an accuration depiction of your own visage, Mr. Bang, I would consult a cosmetic surgeon wihtout delay.

      I forgot to mention Mellisandre's companion in Fort Boyard, Leslie Grimwold (my brother-in-law, dearies).

        What's wrong with my trademark Chinaman smiley?

        I'll show you my "visage", but I'll start a new thread for it.

          So wait a sec, let me just understand this;

          Challenge are stopping Knightmare, besides the fact that they are showing it three times a day, because they are not getting enough viewers. What do they expect at putting it on at 3 in the morning!

          Oh and as for this new direction, I can look into the future and see other "quality" shows like, the aforementioned  Boyard, Ice warriors, Gladiators, and of course that classic that everyone loved to hate Beadles About! I mean BEADLES ABOUT!!!!!!  😠

            Yes, that's about it. But don't forget that fabulous action show, Bargain Hunters! With added "ers"!

              Have u seen that Boot Sale Challenge, wow, I thought only dodgy people like that appeared only in Knightmare! I wouldnt trust any of them valuators!

              You know thats y "not a lot" of people watch Knightmare, because it aint advertised!!! It shud be!

              I will only properly respect Challenge TV when it shows ( regularly, and  ALL the episodes) of the folowing shows:

              Knightmare

              Bullseye

              Catchphrase (but only with Roy Walker)

              Instead, they show Desert Forges. My that really is quality programming!

                      RAH, It really riles me when people get gameshow Trivia wrong!

                      Gladiators showed each and every event in full, its just some events, Like Duel and Danger Zone didnt last very long. (3 seconds in some cases)

                      The entire list of events for Gladiators is (Deep Breath)

                      The Wall, Swing Shot, Duel, Danger Zone, Atlaspheres, Hang Tough, Powerball, Persuit, Pendulum, Pole Axe, Suspension Bridge, Hit and Run, Sumo Ball, Tightrope, Catapult, Vertigo, Dog Fight, Joust, Tilt, Whiplash, Pyramid,  Skytrak, Gauntlet, The Eliminator.

                      Thats 24, (Im tempted, but not mad enough to List the Fort Boyard games to prove there were more) but im not convinced ive got them all, i refuse to look it up!

                      One Event was created for the UK but never used.

                      Cyclotron

                      Three Events are/were Shown in other countires

                      Breakthrough and Conqure, Human Canonball, Snapback

                      As for the list of shows Im waiting for Challenge? to show, Only Scavengers remains unshown (the rest being, Crystal Maze, Gladiators, Knightmare and The Adventure Game)

                      Im gonna stand up for Ed Tudor-Pole, Fort Boyard (FANTASTIC) Desert Forges (Not Enoug Variety but still good) and Sandra Carron (Mumsie and Auntie Sabrina Actress) just to cause some contovesy :oD

                        What about Ice Warriors and Takeshis Castle!

                        Lets face it these are also rubbish and could end up replacing Knightmare!

                        Lets boo them!

                          Mumsy and Auntie Sabrina were great. I'm afraid I still think Ed's horse, Bert, would have been a better presenter than ET-P himself.

                          I posted a much longer message earlier, but the forum ate it. You'll be glad to hear I won't post it all again.

                            Thanks, David - how could I have forgotten Scavengers? A classic.

                              Scavengers was great, though I don't remember much about it - was Knightmare-like in having "plot" elements, as far as I can remember, though the token baddie never really scared me.

                              I remember the shuttle was the Vulture, but I can't remember what the name of the derelict space station was - it's been bothering me for years. Any ideas?

                                    Incidentally, did anyone watch Knightmare on Saturday?

                                    The woman presenter said at the end of Knightmare that it returns again at 5 next week! Did anyone else hear this? I thought they werent gonna show anymore till may?

                                      Quote: "Incidentally, did anyone watch Knightmare on Saturday?  

                                      The woman presenter said at the end of Knightmare that it returns again at 5 next week! Did anyone else hear this? I thought they werent gonna show anymore till may?" (Incidentally, I don't know how other people manage to get quotes to appear in white boxes, so this will have to do).

                                      I have been to the Challenge? website after reading the above, and there was no Knightmare mentioned for next Saturday . I heard about lots of errors being made by the announcers (although I do not have Challenge at all ) , so I wondered if this was an error and instead that was the episode shown on Sunday.

                                      Incidentally, when errors were made about the times by Challenge?, did they say anything unusual at the time that was mentioned in error (e.g. an apology, and mentioning the correct time?) Or did they just leave you in the lurch?

                                        I don't know, but maybe the Challenge links between shows are pre-recorded so maybe the wrong one gets played from time to time.

                                        Joe - to get Quotes in white boxes, simply click on 'Quote' instead of 'Reply' when you respond to the message - then you edit the code you see so that the bit you want in white boxes are within the [quote] tags. You can always use the Preview function to see what your post will look like before finally posting it.

                                          I can definitely field the last one! The lurch! They took a while to change the announcements, and there was definitely no apology. When they changed it, the new announcement didn't give any idea at all of when the next episode would be.

                                          I think the final error on the Saturday was just because they repeated the same message they'd read the few Saturdays before. (Yes, it would be logical to advertise the Sunday episode on Saturday, but Challenge? chose to mention the one the following week instead!) It's kinda hard to explain all the incompetence, really, so I won't wind myself up trying.

                                          On the forum options, quoting, and such, the "help" option on the blue bar at the top of the page is definitely worth investigating if (like me) you get confused by all the options and functions.
