Noticeable that in S6 they just hold the spyglass up in the air, not in front of the eye-shield.

Used the potion to get past Peggatty, then encountered Ridolpho and sang him a song (sort of) to earn the causeway combination.

Next up was Heggatty, who wanted amber in exchange for her help! They had to move on unaided and were cornered by the dreadnort. Oooh nasty!

I don't think it was downright unfair as some have suggested, but it was a real pity as they were a capable team. As others have said they were very polite, which is always nice.

Team 3 just had time to choose the sword quest and enter the level 1 clue-room.

They didn't seem to realise that the glass was a spy-glass.

Shouldn't they have just remembered the message on the scroll and taken two other objects? One advisor understood what the musical notes were.

Does anyone else think Peggatty's cackling sounds rather like Mrs Grimwold? I wonder if they used Tom Karol's voice again for her.

By the way, I personally blame our demise on cultural ignorance...I mean, how were we supposed to know that was an amber necklace (seriuosly)? You see, we're from an asian background and the only jewellry we wear is GOLD!

Three quests later, Ben experienced a Level 2 with only two clue objects, meaning no chance of taking the wrong one - and he went on to win. So by comparision with that, Summayya's death was very unfair.

LF : Now, who should I shout at?

giggles classic LF. Love it. On a random tangent his nails are very cool.

Witch Haven looks nice, very grand. I think it was a shame they got rid of it for S7. I really felt for the team at the moment when they realised that they had the wrong item from the clue room and that the necklace was in fact amber. S6 also seems to have a lot more rooms; for example I don't think that we see the room Sumaya dies in again. I do quite like the falling skeleton graphic for the life force death although it never was as scary as the original face (but still a million times better then the S8 pie.....).

Next up team 3. All the teams so far seem to have been quite old. Another lad who's taller then Treguard! Anyone know how tall Hugo Myatt actually is out of interest?

The "I reckon the magnifying glass is magical" is an odd comment. Also when he reads the scroll and says "No, you can't get it off" is that the ribbon he can't get off? In which case it's surely a bit silly that the team can see the scroll on the screen.

The scroll said Gamble and there was a bag of gold.

Was is a fire stone or Blood stone?? is there really and difference?

That's why I want them to shift it back to an earlier place, 'cos my Mom and Dad are there before me watching something else and my VCR is packing up

They were polite. The next dungeoneer said something rather arrogant to one of his advisors:

Advisor: "Take two sidesteps to your left..."

Dungeoneer: "Does it help I can see the table!"

Strange they didn't really, they were a really good team.

the fact that the scroll gave clues to take the gold and they didn't. we don't know how things would have been played out if they took the correct item.

But level 2 what a load of garbage, they pretty much had nothing to worry about it was so easy.

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to point something out about tonight's episode - am I alone in thinking that even though the scroll the girls picked up in Level 2 hinted that they needed to pick up some amber, they didn't have a chance to collect any before encountering the witch? Have to say it was a bit harsh of our bearded master and his elf sidekick to give the team a hard time about it if this was case.... or is it me being thick???

Enjoyed the episode apart from that, other than the threat by Lord Fear's robot to tear limbs off not being carried out - maybe the gruesome deaths of the early series made the programme makers hold back a bit on too many gory scenes!

I was wondering that myself.

I agree with Porsmond about this new team, the 'I think the magnifying glass is magical' line made me chuckle for some reason. Who knows, even at this early stage in the game, they might turn out to be winners!

Also, we didn't see any clear indication that the bag contained any coins at all, only that it contained gold. It might've been gold dust or gold ingots in the bag for all we could see.

if you read the scroll it talks about gambling (the bag of gold coins)

the clue was to use the bag of coins on the one who sees/wants amber.. hence the word 'gamble'

the blood stone isn't some to gamble with when you have a choose to play with money huh?
