Been a long time since I've visited here but great to see a game to celebrate the 40th anniversary next year. I see it was mentioned on Time Extension's website. I do have the ZX Spectrum game that is also mentioned in the article which is certainly better than the original game that came out back in the day.

Just come across this. Very well produced.

Oh no, terribly sad news.

Yeah it was a fascinating insight into each series. The Gamesmaster book was off the back of a kickstarter, which I backed. Got it signed by Dominik Diamond which is cool.

I would long for a Knightmare book! Would love to read some inside stories from the producers and I am sure there are also some great stories that have not been told by other members of the cast as well as the contestants.

I would love to see a book similar to Gamesmaater: The Oral History. This was a book where it detailed every series and people from each series provided insights into the episodes. Would love to see something similar for Knightmare.

Awesome photos and loved the comparison with the real life and Knightmare shots. Thank you for sharing.

Just came across a video of Lego Knightmare on Youtube. The channel it is on is Bricking It and they had a new video there yesterday and it features Paul Valentine as Motley! Well worth checking out.

Listened to this song just before Christmas! Nice bit of vinyl too.

Although I don't visit here as often as I used to I still like to pop by now and again. Great to see the forum still going strong and long may it continue! The only way is forward, there is no turning back!

Wow! This is positive news! Will have to check this. Yes series 4 wasn't great compared to other series but it's better than nothing. Plus it's the 1st real memory I had of Knightmare as a kid, so it will take me right back.

Been awhile since I've stumbled here but will look forward to giving the podcast a listen. Still great to see the fire burning bright for Knightmare.

Just come across this. Great stuff! I loved what Jamesuk did previously and this looks fantastic too. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

Just came across this thread. Was at Blackpool yesterday with my parents, wife and daughter!! Hope the Saturday went well, even if the weather was not great!

I missed out on this. Would love to play it!! I am more than interested!

So roughly £96k for all episodes? Anyone have a spare £100k?!

I guess due to costs it is not viable. It is a shame. Even now I would love to see a DVD release. With Challenge not currently showing Knightmare (most likely never again) my memories of Knightmare is like a lifeforce, draining away!

Outrageous!!
