PICKLE
-
I was only 10 when Pickle appeared in Knightmare, but I thought he was a good addition to the show. Of course I didn't fancy him, I was only a kid but he did make me laugh (I think he's cute now, though!). I couldn't believe it when Majida replaced Pickle - I missed him! And I missed his sayings like: "It sees master, it sees!", "To the forest of Dunn the foolhardy come" and "Root and fen, master!".
My first series was Series 3 so I was too young to decide whether I liked the old or new format when they changed it in Series 4. I suppose that I'm more used to the new format so I guess I prefer it. I never saw Series 1 or 2 so I can't really comment on them, but I do enjoy the clips from them that are on the site.

He seemed to sound different also!
Yes, the 'Ooh Nasty' was much better in series four
and that Majida was just plain annoying...
-
Treguard wore some odd bronze paint in season 3, and he definately seemed more...human, in season 4, definately the arrival of Pickle helped aid that change.
I prefered Treguard on his own, especially in season 3, but have nothing hugely against Pickle or Majida, either
-
Yes, his face was a profoundly strange colour in Series 3.
I have to say that I preferred Treguard on his own. I much preferred the start of episodes with just Treguard- I felt they were often a little flat afterwards, and then a little... strange when Majida arrived. Sometimes Pickle helps to create atmosphere, but particularly in Series 4 the antechamber scripts were a bit too repetitive for my liking. When Treguard repeated himself I didn't mind as much, but when a whole conversation is exactly the same as the one an episode ago, it feels a bit too fake for me.

Series 4 was far too precisely scripted, I prefered the more random Season 5 for the Treguard/Pickle banter.
It isn't a good thing when you can guess what Pickle is going to say next...There must be a reason for it.
Maybe I should get an interview w/ TC, then we can get some of these questions answered.

Well I couldn't say if the banter in series 5 was better but I must say I have enjoyed the stuff in series 4, much more than I did when it was originally on (older and wiser now obviously).
An interview with TC (I assume you don't mean topcat, that would also be marvellous also, although not very relevant to knightmare) would indeed be a good idea.

Well I will ask Hanna&Barbera (if that is their name!) if they can loan him to me for a day [Likes Top Cat, or Boss Cat as he is sometimes called)
I shall start a new thread, but please remember this is not officially on until Tim gets back to me via email about doing the interview with me.
