<![CDATA[Grrr!]]>I seem to have ranted a lot recently about various things that annoyed me in Knightmare. So I thought I'd ask everyone about what you found the most annoying character/feature/change etc. (Yeh, I know it was an old forum topic, but it was hidden away somewhere from years ago where people visiting probably didn't see it.)

So what made you growl? What was boring, repetitive, badly acted, ill-conceived, plain silly, or whatever?

My own choice? Well, I promise not to rant this time. Just three words:

Casper the Key.

The dungeoneer in the Series 6-8 introduction not yelling "Nooooooooo!" as he falls.

It lacked the variety of series 1-3 and did not benefit from the attempts of continuity.

I don't think any quests were rigged, but can't help thinking some teams were favoured over others. Although Dicken was the only dungeoneer to reach them, the final two chambers in series 4 were so easy- what was the flashing skull about in the last room- where was Mogdred!?!?

Brother Mace made up for it, though.

"Dickon, ah yes, have you not a brother who is a Dominican?"

"I sit here in my lonely cell and I contemplate the follies of the wide world. And I also drink a lot of ale."

(yes you know who you are so please cool it down).

It wasn't just the basic repetition of them appearing every single level, but the voices were just of a tone difficult to cope with. Adding to that, every question was a single true or false, given a rather weak strand to the general knowledge purpose of it all, and they also, frustratingly, took up a lot of time. Mind you, while I will tend to pick lots of personal faults with S4, I still love watching it, wouldn't have it any other way, and if the development led to further series' being so exceptional, then I can't compain.

"Let's not forget the opposition" - said the same time at the same point in every quest. And the calling for the doors was atrocious.

And also people who claim Barry and Dunstan were rigges quests. Right on, Thanatos!

You mentioned above the overuse of the causeways. I think they should have been used less, and they should have been harder to solve. If it were series 3, there would be clues scattered around, and some thinking involved.

Personally the overuse of causeways in the middle seasons and Majida are the main things that annoy (aside the aformentioned spellcasting lengths of certain characters)

  • Pixel

  • Trial By Spikes

  • Wheeping Doors

  • The scenes in series 5 (only dreadful part of KM for me)

    Also something which applied in series 5/6 - not sure until I see them again - where when a dungeoner died and we started at level 1.

    They death was bad enough but we started at the long and repetative level 1 again.

    People who claim Barry's or Dunstan's quest was rigged.

    People who whine about people claiming quests were rigged.

    Mellisandre irritates me full stop. That whiny voice gets on my nerves.

    The Door Monsters in S4. Having to listen to "Oh dear oh dear" every single quest is excruciating. Throw in the "true and false" bit and you have my least favourite part of KM.

So I used to watch the episode I had recorded again, and again, and again.

    Pixel used to agitate me, and the shortcut (as I mentioned in room 101 thread), cutting out a level was a bit dodgy. Having said that I remember enjoying Dunstan's quest all those years ago, so I won't say anything more.

    And I have to admit, despite loving challenge, the announcer comments at the end of km episodes get on one's nerves.

Also it is annoying having supper so late anyway whether Km is on or not. So anyway what annoys/irretates you then?
