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!

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
