Team 2: Maeve, Christina, David and Lee from Lancashire.
The second quest of Series 1 lasted for 11 minutes.
Pre-Quest
Treguard: "Any knowledge of previous quests will be of little use. The Silver Spurs of Squiredom awaits your success."
Level 1
The second quest begins with four doors guarded by portcullises. A collection of letters appear on the floor.
Maeve must collect 'SESAME' in the correct order.
The very first episode of Knightmare ends as the dungeoneer leaves the room.
The team escapes a bomb room but encounters a snake in the following chamber.
Treguard: "Warning team, worms be present on Level 1. All contact is deadly. Those who linger longer in this chamber may linger forever."
The team panics and almost guides Maeve straight into its path.
The team reach the Level 1 clue room, which is guarded by a wall monster.
- Treguard: "This one is called Olgarth. Defeat him with wit, and you may gain knowledge."
- Granitas: "This one is most definitely not called Olgarth. I am Granitas of Legend!"
The team score three. Maeve calls out "I command you" to gain a bonus.
Granitas: "All that glitters is not gold, and she who lies in wait values her appearance more than base metal."
The team chooses just one object - a block of soap - leaving behind a comb and and a bar of gold.
Treguard: "Hurry team! For when Granitas sleeps, Olgarth awakens..."
Maeve arrives at Lillith's chamber. She is looking unkempt.
She wants to do her hair, but all the team can offer is a block of soap.
Lillith: "A block of soap!? Kindly explain how I am to comb my hair with that!"
Death
Lillith: "Dragon's breath! I lose all patience with you! I shall just have to throw you out.
I have no time for those who fumble, so boulders CRACK and that ledge CRUMBLE!
Lillith: "Nice of you to drop in!"
Treguard: "What a shame you didn't take the comb when it was so obviously needed."
One of the shortest quests in Knightmare.
Transitions between episodes
The first episode ends during this quest.
We witness the first 'temporal disruption', which is the pause of gameplay until the following episode.
Warning, team, complete temporal disruption approaching. Time is now the enemy. Although all continues in your world, here time has flown. All adventuring must cease until you phase with us once more.
The fire behind Treguard now stops burning.
Treguard: "Will our dungeoneer come to a sticky end? And if so, why should you care? For here, nothing is real, and everything surely is an illusion."
Subsequent episodes began with a recap of the previous episode. This was known as a 'Progress Report'.
Anglia Television logos
Both the original episodes broadcast on ITV in 1987 and the repeats on Challenge TV showed this original Anglia production logo.
Repeated episodes on the Sci-Fi Channel showed a newer Anglia production logo at the end, which must have been adjusted for those broadcasts.
