Television Gladiators UK

It's not going to be the same if they aren't all off their nut on coke.

Mate half of them are on godknowswhat it's brilliant proper nostalgia goggles stuff, some of the gladiators look like they've used ALL the drugs.

"I was majestic up there" had me rolling. I like the Legend bloke for the new wolf even if they're pushing the other dude.

Weird seeing Clattenburg back but he's been fine

 

[One Night Only]

Boo, the eliminator. Didn't even get those caged ball things.

 

[United Hobbit]

You're way behind me

Paused while I finished up dinner

 

[One Night Only]

That miles fella was some IT nerd wasn't he? Could proper tell on the eliminator

 

[One Night Only]

Paused while I finished up dinner

Is "finished up dinner" code for something else? If so, I could have paused while I finished up dinner a few times TBF.

 

[Redlambs]

"And Scotland has a new superstar!"

Yeah, she's genuinely now No1 up there for any kind of sporting talent

the absolute over hype and cheese is great man. Imagine watching this as a kid, it'd be amazing. feck, it's amazing as an adult

They've picked great contestants too that first ep, they weren't knobheads but could throw some shade at the gladiators and were a good laugh, the gladiators all seemed fairly fun too.

It's now my Saturday must watch. See you all again here same time next week yeah?

 

[Solius]

That's literally why it's feckin brilliant.

For some maybe. Too much for me. Feels like a show for kids

 

[Fortitude]

I think that will probably be Diamond, the 6ft bodybuilder….

Search engines… engage!

Honestly, even though it's blatantly set up, Walsh JR is a talentless melted clone and Finley is a plant, I absolutely love how true it is to how trash the original show was.

Nudge me to remind me to watch it! I absolutely enjoyed that

It was always a show for big kids!

It's like professional wrestling, except so much cooler. Get on board and stop being so old.

My missus is still drooling over Sabre. She's the one, those thighs...

Me, I really liked Legend. But that's because if I looked like that I'd do the twat "simply the best" intro too

I am going to have to do some thorough research tonight!

 

[United Hobbit]

Really enjoyed that, love how true to the original they kept it

I used to want to do the eliminator

Hey I’m not saying people can’t like it. It’s just way too cringe for me. It’s stuff parents watch with their kids.

 

[TheReligion]

So I watched it. Will likely watch it again given the time it’s on. Easy viewing and quite amusing.

Diamond brings the show a certain sparkle.

 

[GazTheLegend]

I will never understand why people enter threads about shows they will never watch and then say "I won't watch this show in particular"

not having a dig, it's a proper internet thing I think. Like I will click links on the Traitors show, British bakeoff etc and I've never sat through a full episode of either thing.

 

[Reditus]

Did ever Forget they tried bringing this back about 10 years ago on sky?

I definitely click on threads about shows I’m extremely unlikely to watch out of a sort of morbid curiosity about how people are getting enjoyment out of something which (to me) seems incredibly shit. I‘ve even been known to have a wee peak at the wrestling thread every now and then.

Well I watched a bit of it that’s why. Said my opinion and won’t be back in again

 

[Salt Bailly]

 

[Eyepopper]

No videos above 240p though which is a shame.

 

[Yagami]

I thought that was really fun. Looking forward to the next one.

My favourite was Rhino back in the day. I think it was because I was a wrestling fan and thought "hey, another Rhino!"

 

[Coxy]

Really enjoyed it - was great watching with the kids.

just wish they had different presenters

 

[OptimisedRed]

Went to Sheffield to watch one of the semi finals being filmed. A long day out, but a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the series.

 

[Glorio]

Sabre...

That wrestling on the hang on game ... Didn't look like it belonged on a family show!

 

[Withnail]

Are you sure you've got your timelines right there? Rhino in Gladiators would have been long before Rhyno in wrestling, surely?

 

[Yagami]

You're right but I wasn't watching the earlier seasons live at the time. Or maybe I was and I was just too young to remember. For me, it was more late 90s and repeats on Challenge.

Ahhh not as old as me then

 

[RedSky]

We all enjoyed that bit.

 

[RedNome]

We all enjoyed that bit.

Definitely the highlight, always was, Jet

 

[Chipper]

Search engines… engage!

Just done the same.

Think it's Dynamite for me. Not a patch on Jet though.

 

[LDUred]

Jet on Hang Tough, legendary.

 

[One Night Only]

Thought this was 7pm for some reason, gonna start it now

 

[One Night Only]

Powerball is great, when the women play this surely fury has to be one of the gladiators being a rugby player

 

[Dan]

That giant guy is huge!

 

[One Night Only]

Powerball is great, when the women play this surely fury has to be one of the gladiators being a rugby player

And she done shite no wonder she went to gladiators instead of rugby

 

[One Night Only]

This game is shite, the gladiator could literally just dive across and get them, legend just let him walk past repeatedly

 

[One Night Only]

That women contestant in blue is feckin useless, could have had max points an fecked about

 

[One Night Only]

Gauntlet is shit, the contenders nearly always make it through

 

[One Night Only]

Clattenburg really is made for this
