Would it be terribly cynical to suggest the answer might be "potential revenue in light of an increased interest in Knightmare thanks to Challenge's repeats"?
Whatever the reasoning, this is potentially fantastic news!
Out of interest I noticed Challenge say they have the licence for a few years. So I'm hoping this is an indication that they will show more series of Knightmare. Fingers crossed!

I think they mean the licence for Series 1 & 2... they have said they're not looking into buying any more series at the moment, though I'm sure they'll give it some thought once they've shown the first two a few times.
Anyway, let's not let this thread go off-topic...

I didn't mean to go off topic. I just picked up something that Challenge said on the link you provided and was curious.
I'm relatively optimistic about something like this, although I do have to wonder how far it will go. I think we should sit back and see what happens, taking things with an open mind.

This is indeed rather exciting. Has Tim Child been cleverly rebuilding the KM brand via a licences to Challange and KM Live?
Noticed this on Tim's wikipedia entry - does anyone know if this is new info?:
"He is currently Managing Director of DungeonMaster Ltd, and is active in producing for the Internet and the advancement of linguistic artificial intellience in drama applications."
