Time Gate

So, Knightmare VR's been shelved. Ok. Good try anyway.
But, er...aren't we all forgetting something here?
TimeGate.
This was the new big format Televirtual was working on before KMVR started. Meant to be an adult version of Knightmare, co-produced by Thames. An entire pilot episode was filmed, hosted by Tom Karol (who played Olaf & Mrs G in KM), and a trailer was available on Televirtual's website, which I never saw, and is now gone. More info at http://www.knightmare.com/knews/timegate/index.htm .
In his 2004 interview Tim Child said that TimeGate had been put on hold while work on KMVR continued. Well, now with KMVR gone...what about TimeGate? We've heard nothing since 2002. Surely now that the KMVR pilot has proved that VR can work, despite not getting picked up by any broadcasters, surely TimeGate still has a chance?
Any thoughts? I'd totally forgotten about it until just now.

Yep, I found it. (Eventually.)
If anyone has a way of ripping videos from YouTube, I'd be interested - we can get the trailer back!

I have both the short and long versions of the trailer. I don't want to kill my bandwidth, so I've put the short version up at:

Interesting to see a few other clips of Knightmare and the Spanish Knightmare on that site.
But what on earth is this?!

Hilarious! Must give this a mention in the next update!

Cool.
Okay, loads of bandwidth left this month for some reason!, so here's the longer version of TimeGate trailer.

I was rewatching the TimeGate trailer last night. Does anyone know who did the voiceover on it? There are moments where it sounds quite a bit like Mark Knight, but it's hard to tell for sure. Grimaldine Grimwold recalled reading somewhere that Tim wanted MK involved in the project (he'd certainly be the obvious choice for a sinister narrator), and he did do the voice work for KMVR despite being overseas, so it's not inconceivable...

I see what you mean.
On the balance of things, I'd be inclined to say that it's not him. But I'm prepared to be shown that I'm wrong
