What a pile of cringy tripe.
Am I right in thinking that there was an equally rubbish programme on many years ago under the same name?
There was one; yes. About 2100 years ago iirc. I heard it was quite good.
Yeh but Diamond though!

It's Saturday night rubbish for families to watch as a bit of a laugh.
It ain't that deep, enjoy it for what it is.
I know my 10 year won't want to watch telly on a Saturday night with me in 4 or 5 years time, so I'm happy to get.on board.
Gladiators ready.......

That face plant on the balance beam must of hurt. And I'm sure they turned the travelator down in the end for the women.
Agree!Quote:

Couldn’t have said it better.Quote:

It's harmless family entertainment.
"Are you ready?" is now my catchphrase to class. They just find it bemusing how hilarious I find it.
It seems if you live long enough, everything comes around again.
No replacement for Jet though mmmmm.Quote:

Just about to mention her! Apparently she got married last summer, to a woman she met in a supermarket car park. I'll say no more but go Google it!Quote:

Yes, my wife mentioned that last night.Quote:

Also notice this series doesn’t call gladiators of colour names like Nightshade & Shadow. Very strange looking back.
Was on in the background at a friends last night for their kids, and glad they kept so many games from the original. A nice trip down memory lane, great to see their kids enjoy it, but not sure in our mid to late 40s we will watch it together. My niece loves it though, which I can’t wait to watch it with her.

At least that was self-aware silliness.

It’s great family fun and anything that showcases general fitness to kids is a good thing in my book.
My young boys love watching it ( me too!)
That would be glorious...Quote:

I've always defended the BBC, but this and that absolutely not funny Michael McIntyre show are a new low point.Quote:

People actually watch this ????
I have to confess that I watched it this evening, a mistake that I won’t make again.
that could be one of the most odd comments I've read in a while. All I can think is 'and?'. It's almost a gossip magazine headline.Quote:

I was at my daughter's & S in L's last night, (in their 40's) and they were glued to it!
I had to suffer it too unfortunately... It's 5pm stuff for kids.
You think all of the Gladiators got their physique by hard work alone? Tbh pumping myself with protein and god knows what else isn’t something I’d want to promote to any child.Quote:
