I would have to say that for me the outdoor scenes where the way to go for knightmare, they brought the show on so much onto new dimensions if you excuse the phrase.  They gave the show a lot more reality and believablility.  I used to love the bit where the dungeoneer got into the boat with that weird boat guy that was brilliant and he had to be payed for his service.  

I think a blend of both the blue screen dungeons and the outdoor areas where best for knightmare.  I actually didnt mind the eye shield myself but i understand your point about who was guiding the dungeoneer whilst the advisors were looking through the eye shield.  I love all the knightmare series and all the parts of the show that they tryed to experiment with also as this was very good for the show and its ratings in the early days of KM

I started watching Knightmare when Pickle was on the show so I sorta grew up on him, I wasnt all that fussed on Majida when she arrived on the show.  I think the reason for her introduction was a political correctness one.  As there werent to many dominant women on Citv at the time.  And perhaps to increase the number of lady Challegers etc.  I didnt like the way she introduced the Stranger and Challenger when she first arrived I think that was a job for Treguard.  She had an annoying eastern european accent as well.

Pickle Entertainment Value 8/10

Majida Entertainment value 6/10

I too like skarkhill came across knight mare by accident i used to always switch between cbbc and citv as a kid but preferred cbbc when I used to see the start of knightmare i turned over to cbbc assuming that the cartoon intro was the start of things to come as i preffered real people in programs to that of cartoon, but one fine day i decied right im going to wait and watch this program out and what a program  it turned out to be i think it was 1990 series 4 when i first watched it.

AH you found that link, it brings back bad old memories.

Yeah id have liked to have seen twins on Knightmare as well, there where a few actors playing multiple roles or voiceovers, oh yeah did hordriss do the voice for smirkenorff Clifford Norgate.  Ive only recently discovered this site and am trying to regain old childhood memories of km but id never have picked up on hordriss and smirkenorff at the time.

"Funhouse never replaced Knightmare. In fact, it started in 1990."

Hey Drassil I never said funhouse replaced Knightmare it just seemed to be around on a friday evening during the 1990-1999, close to when Knightmare was on.  There was a thread on this forum which talked about Funhouse and the twins, however my comment was only intended to be tongue in cheek.

OK its good to see that those Knightmare contestants still are around and that other people know them.

With Regards to 'Melanie and Martina' I think that they where intended for the next series of Knightmare, series 9 but because it never came about Funhouse took them on instead, this is what I intended to say drassil, what do you think?

I was interested in knowing if there where any actual Knightmare contestants in the current forum.  Or just wannabe's.  Did anyone ever play knightmare at home in their houses with friends.  Id actually still play it if i could get anyone else to play with me.  

Oh yeah does anyone think the two twins from funhouse where meant for characters on Knightmare.

Hello there i was just intersted in what you guys reckon, on what channel the new km if it gets made could be on.  I guess it will be a digital channel, any ideas which one.  Dont sit on the fence.

Lol ok Ill check it out this weekend then, Im glad to see that there are alot of very helpful people on this messageboard.  I thought nightmare was finished when i was 11 in 1994, im glad to see that its certainly just not the case thanks guys and girls.

Yeah If you could instant msg me the links to those particular threads regarding the new format Knightmare I might learn from them.  Cheers Grimaldine

Hey Grimaldine whats the actual story with televirtual has tim child anything to do with it or will hugo wyatt be featuring in it probably not.  I dont like the sound of "but with virtual reality and avatar (3D cloning) technology removing the need for any blindfolding or guiding of the studio based adventure."

Thanks Grimaldine I have been looking at the site and ive spent a few hours alright filling in those time gaps.  I had no Idea Knightmare was on Challenge TV.  If you can think of anything else Grimaldine I would appreciate it.

Hello to everyone on this board.  My name is mark im 20 on saturday, I was talking to a few friends yesterday and ITV Childrens programs came up.  We where trying to remember programmes that where on.  Woof, Mike and Angelo, Funhouse etc.  And I vaguely remebered this brilliant show memories started flooding back and i remembered the name Knightmare.  I love the way the more experienced members talk in knightmare language I used to be able to do that in the late 80's and early 90's.  Id love to be able to talk like that again i need my memories to be rekindled any idea's about how I could do that????
