Series 4 - Episode 15
-
YES only one more episode to go now, What a shame. However lets not complain, challenge were very nice to buy another series when it strongly looked like they were not going to do so and once again I've had great memories watching Series 4, Its been Fab
However I've just had a thought. Has anyone seen the Challenge advert saying All New Episodes All this Month with Knightmare in it. I am being optomistic here but if they mean All New Episodes All Month, Wouldnt that mean More New Knightmare after Series 4 finishes tomorrow and not Series 3, I dought it but its a thought.
Also if you've seen the short advert for Knightmare, It Says Watch Brand New Knightmare Weeknights at 6PM and I'm curious to see if this advert is dropped tomorrow or continues because it would be misleading cause Series 3 would not be New.Also Knightmare is continueing in the same slot from Wednesday at 6PM or 1.10AM, I guess its Series 3, but wouldnt it be great if it were different
I know I said I am being optomistic about all this and I probably am, but surely there would be no harm to have a tape on standby just in case

I'm glad you're being slightly optimistic. After your most recent post on the Challenge? forum I was going to label you Porsmond The Pessimist.
I hope it is new episodes. But I doubt very much they've bought Series 5 or anything else. Advertising is always so misleading that "brand new" can practically mean anything unshown in the last two minutes. Perhaps we should take them to court over it, and get compensation for our raised expectations: if we got 50% of their programme budget in damages, we'd have the grand sum of £5.75 to spend on some ice cream, or something.
realises he should be kind to Challenge? and stops short of insulting their organisational skills, the GJs, that atrocious karaoke programme, Edward Tudor Pole, etc. etc. etc.

I call this the "Sky 1" syndrome.
LOL. That's very fitting.

i always thought some of oakleys questions were a bit suspect..
how do you tell how old a tree is?
how do you turn an oak into an ash?
both the answers would imply hurting the tree and sould surely say that you're not a tree-friend?? ??
mind does a few tuck jumps

Well it was just a crazy thought and I realise that it may not be true, but it just made me think it when I keep watching the adverts advertising NEW EPISODES of Knightmare all this month Weeknights at 6PM and Series 3 is not new is it.
I'm still going to have a tape on standby tomorrow just in case though

Good job. Here's hoping beyond hope. I'm still looking forward to my share of the ice cream, however.

(merge with current thread if it exists)
Resumed from time-out at Dooris. The team gave the calling but messed up slightly "Open the door and let us through" - but the door still responded.
Scored 2/3 on the True or False riddles and the door opened, gaining them passage.
In the eye-shield room, Merlin was stuck in the stocks, with a witch who hurredly took his drink away
Unusually, they couldn't free him right now, since they had to go and find a key first! Merlin explained that he (and the stocks) could be called from anywhere, and that the key was made of iron. Then they were allowed to take the Eye-Shield.
The witch then came back into the room and summoned her magic broom to 'sweep' the dungeoneer out!
Then came outside the Crazed Heffer (was there an edit just before he entered this area?). The early Pooka appeared again so they had to make a swift 'entrance' into the inn!
Motley was telling jokes inside the Inn - and got pelted with cabbages for his 'knife to see you' bad joke! Motley gave the team a DASH spell for free, then guided Giles out of the Inn.
"You're going down some stairs as you can see..." - no he can't, he's got the helmet on and can't see the eye-shield anyway
Used the DASH spell in the next eye-shield forest sequence to escape from a goblin hunting party. We saw the goblins looking around in the clearing after Giles went through the portal!
In Oakley's glen, Oakley appeared and set them the usual 3 riddles. Strange 3rd riddle 'how do you turn an oak into an ash... by burning it'. Wouldn't that imply that he WASN'T a tree-friend?
Scored 3/3 on the riddles, and gained a clue from Oakley. "The bloodstone leads to bloodshed" so it was pretty obvious to take the other two items on the stump!
Is it just me, or was Giles sniffing the 'sniff' bottle a couple of times?
The eye-shield sequences were obviously pre-recorded, but the advisers didn't know that! They kept trying to make Giles sidestep and turn!
In the entrance of Dungarth, encountered Mellisandre and asked her for directions to Level 2. Mellisandre gave them a complex sequence of directions to get to the wellway room. An assassin appeared just as they were getting out of the entryway - and the advisers are still trying to give Giles directions in the eye-shield sequence
The next room, the witch was back, and this time introduced herself as Mistress Goody. After a brief bit of chit-chat, they entered the moving corridor. After a bit of discussion, they decided to throw the spanner down to stop the machinery and exited through a side door.
Next was the wellway room, but Fatilla the Hun was on guard. They got past him by giving him the SNIFF bottle - he sniffed it, and started sneezing! They were able to get down the wellway while he was distracted.
Landed on a table in Level 2. Picked up an apple for food, and found Gundrada stuck in the stocks. Gundrada thought Giles was an assassin at first, but they let her out of the stocks and gained her trust. An armored knight appeared (first reference to a Fright Knight), Gundrada kept the knight busy while Giles escaped from the room.
Timed out in the eye-shield sequence as he exited. Boat-ride footage under the credits.

One of the advisors today said something to Treguard that I've wanted to say to him since this series started:
"Hold up the eye shield!"
"Why?"
A great moment when the advisor on the far right let out a gasp when the Assassin came, too! And Motley gets what he deserves when he tells the epitome of a bad joke.
Tomorrow sees the Series 4 finale, which features a superb ending wildly regarded as the best ever...
NOT!

I tuned in just as Giles had finished talking to Merlin and went to pickup the Eye shield (due to watching the Olympics and not realising the time). Made a getaway as they Giles was about to be swept by Mistress Goody and her broom. Outside the Crazed Heifer an early pooka appears so quickly went into the Inn. Inside were quite a few people sitting at tables and Motley juggling and trying to entertain, who spots Giles and asks him to sit down. At the table Motley does a bottom meet seat intro before Giles sits down. Motley then proceeds to tell the locals a joke, which doesn't go down well and results in him being bombarded with cabbages. Motley then accuses Giles of messing his act up. Before Giles leaves Motley gives him a DASH spell. Outside in the forest goblins are approaching so the DASH spell is cast, which makes Giles run into the portal and the goblins lose him. Next onto Oakley, who as usual accuses Giles of stealing after Giles takes the food. Oakley tests them, which they get two right. They take the bottle with sniff on and the wrench. Outside Dungarth Melisandre is sitting on the floor playing with daisie's, she sais a rhyme or something before noticing Giles near her. after telling Giles the way to the wellway an assassin appeared as he was leaving. Giles didn't have to yell at it as the eyeshield sequence kicked in. At the entrance to the moving corridor, Giles meets Mistress Goody again, who asks them if they'd like the "straight through" (I think) or the "Cut price special"? On making a decision she said that they were going to get the "straight through as that is all there was. Had the "Cut price special" have been the Corridor of Blades? In the corridor one of the advisors says about putting the wrench down, whilst another advisor asks Giles if he can see something on the floor. They are then given clues on how to stop the corridor moving and Giles is then told to throw the wrench down which stops the corridor moving. He then exited through a side exit and into a wellway room guarded by Fatilla. After asking Giles what he had and the usual threats he offers Fatilla the Sniff bottle and asks him to sniff it. Fatilla sniffs the bottle resulting in him starting to choke, which Giles then makes an escape down the well. He lands on a table, with a sword leaning against the side. He picks up some food off the table and then gets off the table. He then goes to pickup the sword and is told to leave it by 'Gunwada the sord mistwiss'. Gundrada in the stocks, thinks that he's an assassin and so had to convince her he wasn't. She then tries to get him to release her and whilst the advisors try to decide on what to do, Pickle says that he can hear footsteps. They are then told that they need to hurry and decide whether to rescue Gundrada or save themselves. They decide to rescue Gundrada, which then a Fwightnight appears. Giles then leaves, whilst Gundrada goes into battle with the Knight.
