Knightmare at BFI Mediatheque

[Pooka]

Several episodes of Knightmare are available to view at London's BFI Mediatheque (a free audio-visual repository of old film and TV at the BFI Southbank location).

These are often from the original broadcast on CiTV. These span many years of Knightmare's history; some episodes also include the CiTV wraparound host sections in addition to the episode itself. From my viewing, it seems that episodes available to view include the first ever from Series 1 and one from each subsequent series. There are no successive episodes, however, meaning that some quests are only partially shown. One winner is shown - Julie, from Series 7.

We've all seen Knightmare episodes by now, but I was quite excited to see these presented in their original broadcast form! If you're ever near the Southbank I'd recommend availing yourself of free Knightmare!
