2900 means 5 am in TV speak apparently. The man at Challenge was a bit surprised that we all didn't know that.
He thinks he's clever because he's a TV man.

Maybe we should continue to barrage them with miffed messages at their forums. That seems to have an effect.
It's really off to stop showing a series half way through just because they're bored with it, what about the people who are just discovering/rediscovering it? (Like me!)
They don't realise the revolutionary cultural potency of Knightmare. How many people here are too young to really remember it from the first time, or like me, are only truly able to appreciate how good it is with a grownup brain and in a world apparently dominated by Dick and Dom.

My insane Knightmare-themed blog entry is still there:
I thought that about the 2900 hours thing. Perhaps it'll be broadcast in a dimension beyond conventional time.
But in that case I'd like to know how I'm supposed to set the video. How hard is it to read the sentence you've just written?
This all goes to show how arbitrary the Challenge channel's scheduling is.

Hi djoska!
The TV man at the challenge forums relented a little bit in light of the the cries of the knightmare fans it seems:

he said:
Ok, series 4 only will be May 2nd-23rd at 2900, weekdays.

I'm 25 and I was the right age for Knightmare but didn't watch it with consistency as a child, I was intrigued and a little bit scared rather than loyal.
I appreciate it much better as a grownup. It's a visionary piece of television and it was just beginning to be a solid part of my routine!
I'm an artist/illustrator and there might be some Knightmare-related paintings in the offing. Possibly wall monsters.
Below is a link to my work if you want to imagine what liberties I might take with Treguard's beard:
Hi there I'm new!
I was alarmed too when challenge seemed to stop knightmare out of nowhere yesterday. I asked what was going on at the Challenge TV forums and got this response:
Sorry about that, but Knightmare has been in the schedule nearly forever mostly at weekends but lately stripped weekdays, we want to give it a break, it will come back later in the year.
‘Later in the year’ is a bit vague but at least it isn’t gone forever.

My latest blog entry has some heavy Knightmare content for those who are interested (it's quite long and eccentric): http://chloepaintings.squarespace.com/
