Well, my brother did know one of the guys from S8 Team 1...
There's only one guy from Team 1 series 8, Richard Howes (correct me if I'm wrong) the dungeoneer and his advisors were all girls. There's an account by him about what happened and also a picture of the team.

Hi.

My name is Paul Boland and I was team leader of the first Irish team to successfully audition and succeed in being offered a place on Knightmare.  Unfortunately, my Mum fell ill and we missed the call informing us we had won a place on the show  :(.  I was (and still am) devistated.  However, to make up for missing out, Tim Child and all at Knightmare invited me over every year as a VIP to see the show being filmed.  It was a dream come through.

I visited Norwich every year up till the shows ending.  I toured the sets, I met the cast and crew, I got photos and autographs which I cherish to this day.

I remember the first year I went over.  When we arrived at the studios it was lunch time so we (my Da, my sister Julie, myself and my friend Nigel) were invited up to joint the cast and crew in the cafeteria for lunch.  When we walked in the doors, there standing in line to get something to eat, was Yugo Mayth (sorry about the spelling).  I was stunned and couldn't move.  After we got our meal, we sat at the table across from the stars.  Mark Knight was there, and some others.  It blew my mind.  My sister asked me to open a packet of sauce for her and I couldn't because my hands were shaking!!

Later, we got a tour of the studios.  I met everyone, got to see Lizzard get his makeup put on, met Treguard, Hordress (out of his makeup) and Tim and Susan Child.  I got photos, autographs, etc.  Next was tour of the studio.  I saw the props, the two blue rooms they used to film Knightmare, and the anti-chamber where Treguard and co resided.  Then we sat down and watch as the filming took place.  And surprise Surprise...  The first all girl team (Dungeoneer was Julie (not my sister)), won.  We had a truly fantastic time and I have never forgotten it.

I visited every year till the show ended and when it did end, it really upset me.  To this day, I have signed every petition to get Knightmare on DVD, I have contacted studios asking for a repeat of the show (I don't get Challenge TV).  I am hopeful that someday, Knightmare will be released on DVD and I can assure you, I will buy it!  I am now a huge Star Trek fan, it has become my number one show, but if Knightmare came back on tv, it would regain my number 1 spot!

Hi there and a very warm welcome to the forum. Maybe you could share them with us, if you wanted to (up to you though). But you'd have to contact Illusion via IM and he'd tell you how to do so! If you did want to share them then he'd probably put them on the site at the next update.

Hi, I'm new here, so please excuse my ignorance if the answer to this question is already well-known...

but, are any users on here ex-contestants of Knightmare? Does anyone know anyone who was? If the show ever comes back, it could make for some great reunions, or "after they were famous" style shenanigans!

Hi, Andrew, and belated congratulations on getting engaged. I was going to point you towards my Table of Contestant Posts thread elsewhere on the forum, which I put together in 2006 to list all the contestants known to have visited, but it's become a mess of lost formatting and outdated links. While I see about updating it, here is a manual list: Mark (Team 4 of Series 1), Julian a.k.a. Jason Karl (T11 of S2), Scott (T9 of S3), Giles (T8 of S4), Andrea and Jenna (T5 of S5), Sumayya (T2 of S6), Nathan (T5 of S6), James (T3 of S7), [heavenly choir]Simon and Barry (T7 of S7) [/heavenly choir], Justin (T2 of S8), Alan and Oliver (T6 of S8).

You can find many of their posts by browsing the Behind The Scenes subforum. The only contestant known to visit the forum regularly these days is Alan, because he runs it. ;D
