Dug up Knightmare passed

Post by Myatt »

Completely removing all paper work and cabin bed I have had for over 12 years cos I am finally having a proper bed, something I have not had since i was 7. I managed to find a gold mine of my 'Quest' magazines I haven't seen for 8 years! also includes various letters from Tim Child replying that there will be no more Knightmare and a badge. Thats 10 copies I have, can anyone remember how many there were altogether and have you found yours recently? :)

A good find indeed...

I haven't got any Quest magazines, but what I have found is old episodes of Knightmare from Series 4 to 6 (I re-recorded them last week so that they were in order).

Series 4: 10/16
Series 5: 14/16
Series 6: 9/15

Not bad (in fact it adds up to 12 and a half hours!), but as I keep saying I'm sure I have S7 and S8 episodes somewhere.

Yup, there were 10 issues of The Quest all together, so you have them all!

They're also online at http://www.knightmare.v-2-1.net/club/

My other never lot me join the Club. I even remember once showing her the leaflet that came with the board game and begging but it was to no avail. Mrs. By Spikes, you have a a lot to answer for.

(If Freud had seen the first typo in the previous post...)

Can anyone offer full-page scans of The Quest? It would be great to see them. There was content, such as the full range of Knightmare Top Trump cards, that didn't make it onto Knightmare.com, due I believe to the restrictions posed by the dial-up internet era.

I too would desperately like to see the original pages and especially the Top Trumps cards! Sadly I have asked about it more than once in the past and had zero response, so I'm guessing anyone who still has copies doesn't have the time or equipment to share them. :(

I have the first issue with Top Trumps in it... somewhere. Alas, I'm not sure where. I'll have a rummage.

After a request from me, Matt/Myatt has been looking for his copies of The Quest. He has yet to find them but I know he is keen to.

A happy ending to this: Matt/Myatt was kind enough to retrieve and scan all his copies of The Quest and they're now on the relaunched website for all to enjoy. Thank you, Matt.

On that note I'll lock this topic, but if you find anything in The Quest issues that you'd like to talk about here, feel free to start a new topic.
