Knightmare was one of my all time faves. Quite scary for a little 'un. The fact that, at the end, they would be frozen in the game until next week gave me the creeps. As embellina says, the contestants were the type of kids to get bullied at school.


For the day, the technology was amazing.


Did any team ever win it? I don't think I ever saw anyone make it to the end. The theme tune is a great atmospheric sound.


Ahhh, memories.

I think I must have just caught the first year or so of it - before discovering the dubious delights of drinking cider in parks and hoping a girl might let me touch her up.


Cool though the programme undoubtedly was, I doubt if mentioning 'Knightmare' would have given me the edge over the bigger boys.

Yeah it started green, then bits of the face would fall away and it would go from orange to red and there would only be a skull left, until they found some bread or something to put in the napsack/satchel thing.


There were "wall monsters" who would ask them riddles and stuff too.


Only remember seeing one lot get to the end f the game, which took them several episodes I think!

      Bitey Fox.

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      They've left all kinds of things in my garden including gardening gloves and shoes, not to mention scavenged food and packaging. Once they left an unopened vacuum pack of smoked trout, the next day some pita bread. All a bit biblical.

      Bitey Fox.

      By malumbu · Posted

      From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
