Past, present and future...(A bit long)

Welcome to the forums Tiggy, as always I welcome you to have a look in Knightmare chat at the weekends, Saturday and Sunday from 8pm, you can access that through the link on the main menu, or if you have mIRC I can help you out to get in there.
Now on to your post....Reach wand...euch yes, it was rather useless.
Series 9....I want series 9, I believe in the ability Tim Child has, and he reads these forums, so may listen to our ideas.
Also, my favourite series is 3, it had some extra super scenes and some fantastic gaming ideas, I loved those red cats in the fire chamber
Enjoy your stay here in the community, I hope it shall be a long one
(PS. If you are now 25, I believe you may be the oldest around here!)

Hello there and many times welcome, Tiggy!
I'm an old-schooler too. I preferred "The Game" aspect to the soap opera aspect that crept in. That's not to say there's no place for storylines, but they have to be made to fit with the game, not subvert it.

Having watched the repeats of series 3 (I started watching KM regularly with series 4) I have to say that it is fast becoming my favourite series. The lack of a coherent storyline is a bit detrimental, but the difficulty of the questions and the greater interactivity of the dungeon more than made up for it (The second team of S3 had to climb into a pool, crawl out, and sing 'Happy Birthday'...that just cracked me up ;D)
And yes, series 9 would be interesting, but it would have to remain true to the original Knightmare in almost every way (i.e. a helmet, advisors, dungeoneer actually moving around as opposed to lazily using VR technology). Oh, and it shouldn't be bogged down in political correctness, as in "We can't have a WHITE FLOATING SKULL OF DOOM, that would scare the little kiddies. Lets have an enlarged, slightly threatening bunny rabbit instead".
Damn, I'm thirsty after typing that.

Ahhh....sorry about that ::)

Hello there! I also like the earlier series for their ruthlessness (although I also wonder whether it was because I was younger and more impressionable at the time). Plus, they were gorgeous to look at.
A fond memory of mine is tuning in to series 1, episode 6 (which I think might be the first time I saw it - it's certainly the first occassion I remember seeing it) and watching a dungeoneer get blown up thirty seconds in! I'd never seen Dungeons And Dragons and the whole fantasy scene was totally new to me, so it was quite a baptism of fire in that respect - and more than enough to ensure that I became hooked!
As for series 9, well Tim Child has 8 series to look back on. He knows what works and what doesn't - and after 8 years I'm sure he has a wealth of new and exciting ideas. I'm also sure he won't spoil the surprise and tell us, either!
In my opinion, series 9 has the potential to be the best series ever, and the potential to be a turkey. I'm leaning very much towards the former!

If you're going to keep doing this, dearie, couldn't you just leave my pies alone? That was supposed to be my entry into the Level 1 Pie-Making contest. Now that old tart Mildread's sure to win.
Can't you just go and raid the Level 1 Asda for some pies? If you turn right at the quicksand it's only a ten minute walk... well, float in your case I suppose, dearie.

and anyway here's two large bones for Festus to restore his lifeforce
Oooh, that is nice of you, dearie. 'E 'as such a terrible 'unger. I'd let you down the wellway to Level 2 if you 'adn't already got down. Or I'd give you a spell, but all I 'av is PERFECTPASTRY, and I'm saving that for next year's Pie Making contest, my entry for which better not be stolen by any old skull that might be floatin' around, otherwise I might 'av to get the exorcists in again. And they're so expensive to call out on weekends, dearie.

Hi Tiggy - welcome to the forum!
I'm one of the 'new-schooler's' (lol!) because I only started watching it during Series 3 and then it changed the next year, besides I was too young to be really disappointed (although I did think "Why've they changed it?" at the time). I haven't seen Series 1 or 2 at all. I wasn't as keen on Series 4 as Series 3, but when Series 5 started I thought "This is my favourite series so far". I loved all the new characters and that nice scenery and the fact they weren't as stuck in the dungeon as they once were. I was disappointed in Series 8 a bit because it went back to being almost completely inside and didn't have much variety.

Maybe Grimaldine was keepin' the gardens clean for Lord fear, and had all the exit's locked for fear of somebody messing up her work on his lovely chrysanthinums...
