5th September 1987. A Saturday. Rick Astley's at Number One, Boris Johnson begins his first marriage and there's a new series called 'Knightmare', with a K, starting on Children's ITV next week.
Without revealing your shoe size, what's a show you remember from your childhood (or adulthood) that other people don't remember (or do) that should be brought back and released on DVD (or VHS) that begins with K and ends with mare?
Sometimes all you can hear is the goblin horn.
Sometimes Level 1 feels like Level 3.
Sometimes your life force seems stuck on red.
But however hard the quest gets, please remember: you're less alone than you think.

10 years and counting of this Twitter account. Thanks to all of you who make celebrating Knightmare here so worthwhile. The only way is onward. There is no turning back!

One food item
Two non-food items
Three spells
Scrolls should not be removed (however low you are on toilet paper)

Seven years ago this month, Knightmare returned with a special episode for YouTube Geek Week. But did you know there's also an extended version? Extra rooms, extra Lord Fear and a lot of prime numbers.
'After 2 weeks of multiple life force screens and asking everyone to go into temporal disruption, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private castle where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.'

Sometimes Level 1 feels like Level 3.

Twitter's alt text function means that when you tweet an image, you can add a description to make it more accessible. It's not unlike being a Knightmare advisor.

5th September 1987. A Saturday. Rick Astley's at Number One, Boris Johnson begins his first marriage and there's a new series called 'Knightmare', with a K, starting on Children's ITV next week.
Treguard and David Campbell, first dungeoneer in Series 1:
"What reward do you seek here?"
"I seek knighthood."
"That will not be possible."
Treguard was not the kind of leader to give knighthoods away.
So I'm hearing "Ooh what if Squid Game was set in the UK" "Ooh, imagine what the squid game would be like in the UK".
I don't need to imagine. My generation lived it.
