Kids' TV Champ - Radio Times vote
-
I wonder if they have tried to hide the result so as to do a "big reveal" of the final result. If so, we have rather stolen their thunder
-
I'll try a bit harder. Cue theme music...
A vote has been in progress, so here's a progress report; -
Knightmare has faced the test,
To prove itself to be the best.
Faced rival shows from far and wide,
Knightmare it seemed would not be denied.
Beating puppets and cartoon foes,
It was soon one of just two shows.
SMTV its final threat,
Or so we thought, but in fact, no sweat.
Quick from the blocks from moment one,
Knightmare had it seemingly won.
Right from the first few hours fought,
SMTV in its wake was caught.
One brief fightback narrowed the chase,
But never did SMTV get near to first place,
As Knightmare's share was seventy or more
For most the time they were keeping score.
And so Knightmare, with over eighty per cent,
Has the prize on which its fans were bent.
Victory decided, no further contest,
Knightmare - the Kids Show that is the best.
And now time turns,
The fire burns,
The polling is gone,
The time for a good, Lord-Fear-style gloat is ON....

Thank you, Annie.
Heh, love the way the website says there were 18,000 votes. I get the feeling there may have been somewhat fewer actual voters.
Halo-head
Indeed.
The entire thing smells rather strongly of an attempt by the RadioTimes to increase their social media presence. The fact that the final article actually says very little about Knightmare indicates the piss poor level of research that they subsequently carried out (i.e. very little, because the actual winner doesn't matter to them).
Ah well, the title is indeed a weighty one and might have some future value. Who wants to write up an article for the main site?

I'd offer to do a write-up, but I need to put the finishing touches to the latest audio play. I've been putting that off for over half-an-hour as it is.
Oh, I've realised what a geek I really am. I'm 40 years old in about seven months, and I actually caught myself dancing my way between rooms of my flat just now, all because of this. Sheesh, that's sad...

Since the Radio Times article might bring a few new visitors to Knightmare.com and/or the Facebook page, may I suggest posting a reminder that KM repeats are currently airing on Challenge? Might help to give their ratings a boost.
