Kids' TV Champ - Radio Times vote
-
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.

Sure, go for it

Sounds like a good idea to me, I'm sure Challenge will appreciate the potential extra viewing figures as well - especially if they're looking to acquire further series as they've recently claimed.... I'll make sure a post on this has been done on the Facebook page by tomorrow morning.

Going back to round 3 - this wasn't the first time KM came up against Duck Tales. This was back in Sep 1987 when they rubbed shoulders in the ITV Monday afternoon schedule!
A personal KM/Duck Tales memory: when CITV ran their 'design a room' competition, my own effort was inspired by an episode of the cartoon which included a scene where columns came crashing down onto flagstones, threatening to squash those below. I didn't win

Now done.

Dang. I was hoping we'd get to see the previous posts break our record of 100,000 views. They were prime candidates

Interestingly, I notice that the Sooty crowd are now somewhat subdued.
They were predicting doom and gloom for us against smtv.

Good plan. If only Challenge put a card up after the credits saying to visit the website. But I guess such idea would exist only in the realm of dreams.
That's a nice idea. As you say, it's a doubtful thing (even if we asked them to). However, I do remember a card advertising TES after Sunday morning showings of KM when it was on Sci-Fi, so it's not an impossible suggestion...
One of the things I've noticed is that after the (short) article on the Radio Times website, there's a space to add Facebook comments...
The entire thing smells rather strongly of an attempt by the RadioTimes to increase their social media presence.
...and a lot of the comments appear to be from people I don't recognise community-wise (or didn't notice at KnightmareCon), so that would suggest that new people are bring reminded of KM even now. And that's always good.

How about a Merit medal for David? None of this would have been possible if he hadn't drawn our attention to the poll.
Thanks. No one's nominated me.
There's going to be a massive anticlimax if/when we win, isn't there?
There certainly was after reading the Radio Times article. Underwhelming to say the least.
If nothing else, I look forward to mentioning our Radio Times victory the next time I have a trying-to-explain-Knightmare-to-a-young-whippersnapper conversation. I expect it to lead into a trying-to-explain-Radio-Times-to-a-young-whippersnapper conversation. (We're not supposed to call it 'the' Radio Times apparently.)

I thought that's what I was doing... is there an official process that I've forgotten about? I couldn't see anything on the Medals page or forum thread.

The Bristol Post picked up the story. So, er, that's good...
I did flick through yesterday's new print copy of the RT on the off chance it was mentioned, but there was nothing.

We can always hope it'll encourage them to buy a few more series...
