Yup, they accidentally touched one of the spikes and lost. I guess the spikes must have been charged with electricity. Oh well. That team unnecessarily paniced when the Brollachan appeared, though. Speaking of the Brollachan, there was one line I didn't get: something along the lines of "I do not know if you're telling the truth, but I know you're not lying". Eh?
I almost missed this episode, by the way: I was watching the adverts, waiting for Knightmare to start, when I realised I was on the wrong channel! Luckily I managed to tune in in time to see the end of the opening credits.

Im sorry, but Treguard is helping them WAY too much in this series.

He's even started guiding the dungeoneers 'climb over the back of the seat and leave the firestone'

He;s started the annoying habbit of pretending to not know what the items are. 'think its up the back there somewhere' was bad enough but now 'think thats a lamp'. YOU KNOW ITS A LAMP. what happened to the confident Treguard who KNEW the dungeon?

Shall we take the book?
"Ooh its quite useful"
So now, he's telling them what items to take, in LEVEL 2.

And they were blatantly told they suddenly had the BOLT spell and Treguard went 'USE IT'. Ooh I give up. WAY TOO MANY. But they still died, so they were particularly hopeless.

The new team by contrast have a much tougher quest.

lol they really made a meal out the spikes.
The sad thing is they would have been allowed cross.. the only reason they died was due to poor guiding.. there is no chance the team would have been kill for going to slow.

um a talking book... Tregurad advice isn't that important anyway.. telling people what the objects are, were the exit is or describing the puzzle is ok, but telling them what to pick up and when to use something is wrong.. mind you it's obvious anyway.. and i think u'll find he always did hint when a spell or object was needed.. so it no different than the early seasons.

If I remember correctly (and I do not have Challenge), I think this team actually counted paces instead of the squares when using the combination. Am I right, because I am surprised that nobody has mentioned it before.

Such a cool word!! I liked the end of series 6 where Lord Fear is shown saying it again but they've forgotten to key out the blue screen and I think that Mark Knight had forgotten to put his contact lenses in!! ;D

The 2nd GOBLIN FODDER of Series 6 Finale was the same as the first on but a close up of Lord Fear's face.

GOLBIN FODDER.

"Take a step backwards"

Duh???? This should be rated alongside the infamous block and tackle sidestep to the left death..... what a stupid mistake!

The production crew were letting them get across... just another guiding mistake
