"Oooooo nasty" Does That Phrase Make You

Personally, I always loved that line. True, it did get a bit stale towards the end, but to be honest, it was part of the character, and made it quite fun! I remeber my friends and I used to bet on when he'd say it!
-
Hee hee, exactly! That what was made it more fun, because you always got the impression that Treguard had a slightly sadistic streak, and enjoyed seeing the dungeoneers failing. Or is that just me?
-
Yeah, especially when they do something really dumb! Heh, I was always yelling at the screen, "No, you want to go the other way!" Heh, they could be silly at times!

The absolute best delivery of the "Oh dear, what a pity..." line (which is my preference) was Richard's team in season one. He said it with such a beautiful mix of primary indifference and secondary amusement.
Treguard was so much more fun back then, when he was a sadist. There were times (remember when Stuart was in the pendulum corridor?) when Treguard almost seemed to be getting a sexual thrill out of seeing the dungeoneers in danger. And yes, he also enjoyed seeing the inhabitants of the dungeon getting smashed around too. He was a real voyeur of sadism.

Oh, I don't think Pickle was invited into the Castle purely to help with Quests. There must have been more to their arrangement than that, methinks.
Yes, "evil" Treguard was fun. My favourite evil Treguard moment is still the team who fail to take the diniving rod. He really seems to be enoying their pain.

Oh, so firstly Lord Fear's a dirty old man, now Treguard and Pickle are secret gay lovers? Dear oh dear, are our own love-lives so empty that we have to start speculating like this? Don't answer that!
Can I just say, I wasn't actually knocking the old "oooh nasty" line when I started this thread. I do like it very much, and it became an integral part of the show's character. (I'm sure I'm not the only one here who catches himself muttering "oooo nasty!" whenever they see someone bleeding, and we all know where I picked it up from!)
I'm just complaining that Hugo Myatt got a bit carried away with it in the long run. I think it's because by around 92 he was getting so much fanmail because of it he almost felt like he had a duty to throw it in at any and every opportunity. Which is a shame 'cos he wore out the understated magic of it i.e. its throwaway simplicity.

This is true. No prima donnas in KM.
Apart from John Woodnutt, maybe.
Muahahaha. Evil, but so true, methinks.

I'm starting to feel just a little guilty for making that one of my little pet topics, now everyone's at it. And it takes quite a bit to make me feel guilty. I should point out that I don't feel guilty enough to stop mentioning it and making cheap jokes out of it, however.
Did I mention I don't like Edward Tudor Pole much?
