I still can't believe its 10 years since knightmare ended, but then again, think of it this way, we still support it after 10 years too!
I hope the future for knightmare is a good one too! Lets hope they keep on showing those repeats and bring Knightmare VR to our screens!

Goodkness me... I remember the last episode of Knightmare on CITV like it was yesterday. I remember my friend calling me up straight after wondering why there was an endcap inviting viewers to write in if they were interested in appearing on the show, since we had heard that this was going to be the last series (but turned out not to be confirmed yet).

I didn't realise as I didn't watch it before

I certainly was gutted when 1995 rolled around with no Knightmare...
Here's to the future though
-
Despite all the reasons Tim Child gave and others. I will never understand why the plug was ever pulled on Knightmare. The seris was getting so exciting wiht the new CGI- Goth still scares me more than level 3 of previous seris (well more of mount fear could have been scary) the graphics and designs were so good and would have given the seris the extra somethign they tried with the real castles and pictures of previous seris from seris 4 to 7. And a show still pulling in 4.5 million on a friday afternoon!!!! Eastenders can barely do that now!!!
No justification I say.

I remember being most shocked that the series was so short, I hadn't read anywhere that it was a curtailed run and so when it was all over after 8 episodes I was upset. Then I saw the recruitment ad and felt reassured that it'd be back. Little did I know!

Season 8 ran for 10 episodes, not 8; it was indeed very short, and I recall being quite shocked when it ended so early in the year. Ever since 1988 I had been getting ready for Christmas while still watching the final few episodes of KM.
What a shame the series ended so abruptly, and indeed I have never believed that the cancellation was to do with the ratings, more to do with the controllers personal tastes and a difficult decision from the producer.

g I remember someone telling me that Hugo Myatt had died, and that was why there was no new series... I really don't know who told me that - probably was the simplest way to explain to a distraught nine year old that her favourite series wasn't going to be on anymore. Probably the happiest thing I've learnt since joining the fandom is that he's still alive - it was definitely an amazing feeling, that it was just [a very roundabout accumulative series of problems well described by Mr. Child] rather than what I thought for a long, long time!
