Gladiators

Yeah, thought Unleash was the best game on there.

They do seem to be trying to make Sabre the new Jet by having her on everything and all the changing room skits.

 

Diamond and Sabre are my faves but big shout out to Legend. Yeah he acts like a total knob, but its clearly a pantomime villain role and he's leaning right into it. Also think Giant seems a lovely bloke and would be good fun on a night out

I like the concept of Unleash, but the box obstacle appears to be a death trap.

Not going to lie, glad the pair of red contestants lost. Clearly one of those couples that think they’re something special

Apollo and Sabre are definitely going to do it in the changing room by the end of the series.

No way was that lads feet over the line to get the points in Gauntlet. Justice needed for Jacked Sabre Jr.

Nice to see Hang Tough back, was afraid they’d dropped it in favour of Unleash or Atlaspheres

Loved the dive at the end of men's eliminator. Who needs a rope anyway??

[Egg Shen]

Enjoyed last nights episode, felt like the Gladiators were out to rough the contenders up a little.

Unleash is great, but the wall and the 'one step at a time' rule are a bit misjudged I think. The wall slows the contestant down without any impact on the Gladiator, which means if you even get to the stairs, the act of slowing down to do one stair at a time almost guarantees you're going to get caught unless the gladiator slips.

My son was watching YouTube video's last year of some guy doing eating challenges etc. when I realised it was Legend from Gladiators. I think his name was Matt something?

I fell down a rabbit hole with them and it's a great story. He was a teacher who put loads of time into making YouTube videos around working full time, a wife and two kids.

He made enough of a success of it to make YouTube, fitness and an app he released his full time job which in turn led to Gladiators.

The videos also covered him having a nice big house built for himself and his family as well and there were also a couple of episode's featuring Giant who yes, does also seem like a great guy.

The male winner on Saturday seemed like a total knobhead. Hope the Gladiators give him a kicking in the next round.

My kids are obsessed with the Epic Pranks series on iPlayer. Viper does his best to not break character. Legend tries but isn't quite as good at it.

Yeah, took an instant dislike to him as soon as he started banging on about being a Paratrooper, and how that makes him better than all other Army. I’ll take a thousand CrossFit wankers over a squaddie who thinks he something special.

He seemed to take pleasure in Giant getting injured as well, which doesn’t feel in the spirit of the show.

Diamond is definitely my favourite.

[DavidB6937]

I've seen they're doing appearances at Butlins so I'm tempted to take the kids but I'm also worried if it's Sabre, Comet or Diamond then I might get thrown out.

Putting Viper in that sprint race is surely as close to match fixing as you could get, too? That was a gift of 5 seconds, and seemed a bit dodgy watching it.
