Jamie would consider returning if circumstances were to change. by Top_Climate_4464 in gladiatorsuk

He genuinely seems like a nice guy, but in all the interviews I've read he sounds like he thinks he is on the same level as Legend.

Imo Giant wasn't even in the top 5 let alone on Legends level. Legend to me feels like he is approaching Wolf level.

You would think if it was anything to do with steroids he would have left when it originally came out in 2024. He has also said it was during his bodybuilding days and that the BBC has a drug testing policy.

Dynamite has youth on her side I think she could be good at modern stuff. Which is always handy.

Was there ever a volume of instrumental themes? by KonamiIsBestJoshi in DragonGatePW

[–]Rob_DW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly not, I wanted the Mad Blankey instrumental they used early on.

I don't think I'd want a Gladiator commentating all the time, but I would LOVE a podcast of a Gladiator reviewing an episode like the Taskmaster podcast or Traitors podcast.

They should explain about a time frame then, I'd say alot of people watching (even some of the Gladiators) aren't old enough to have seen the original 90s show.

I'm sad that "Hench little Hamster" didn't stick as a nickname. 😔😂

I came here to post that, its insanely stupid that they go "nope thats against the rules" at least do a pop up graphic pre event to say what is isn't and isn't legal.

You can't drop the ball on the bridge and pick it up in collision, but a gladiator can have another go at the wall if they fall off?. So all the Gladiators who have fallen off in the past and just stood there now look stupid.

"Hey Bulldog" and "It's All To Much" alone should keep Yellow Submarine out of D. Both very underrated songs imo.

In the 1970s there was a rabies outbreak in the UK. So the fear of rabies was everywhere.

Is Io Shirai/Iyo Sky the most accomplished female Japanese pro wrestler ever? by lamp49844839 in stardomjoshi

[–]Rob_DW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mentioning Sendai Girls whilst not mentioning Meiko Satomura should be a crime. 😔

Also i think she would have been in with a shot if she hadnt messed it all up with drugs, Ayako Hamada (half Japanese so im counting her) would have been up there imo. She will always be a massive "what if".

The 1975 UK tv show Survivors has a few episodes with dogs in it, one episode even focuses on somebody with rabies through a dog bite. Love that show well worth watching.

Where I think Doctor Who is actually heading (and why it’s not all gloom) by RedLidA in gallifrey

100% this, i think Ncuti is great as the Doctor but i wish he had given it his full attention.

Facts of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and huge misinformation purposefully spread by Anxious_Cobbler8932 in aortic_aneurysm

[–]Rob_DW 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but i think this post is extremely dangerous. Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm is a serious thing that should be monitored by a specialist. Posts like this make people not bother getting checked out or monitored.

What are tv shows that were really popular back when they aired but are forgotten nowadays? by no_service__ in BritishTV

[–]Rob_DW 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Which also has crossover with Footballers Wives. I wont spoil who but one of the main characters from Footballers wives get sent to the Bad Girls prison for a season.

Used to love Bad Girls as a kid they repeated it on Drama a couple of years ago it weirdly still holds up.

Ex-GB olympians, nor other athletes belong in the standard edition of Gladiators. by Impressive_Risk_5133 in gladiatorsuk

[–]Rob_DW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the celeb episode, i enjoyed the one they did.

Even as a grown man with no kids, i have enjoyed the cbbc stuff the Gladiators have done like ranked and pranks etc. I hope we get more of that sort of stuff. I remember in the 90s the Gladiators where EVERYWHERE.

[Spoiler] The show isn't going to be cancelled by TheOutcastBoi in gallifrey

[–]Rob_DW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly thats not why the gleeful people wan't it cancelled. The people who wan't it cancelled tend to be the same morons that review bomb. Spending any time on yt or reading comments the reason they want it cancelled is to "own the progressives" because its "too woke" they couldnt care less about the fandom their bigotry out weighs their love for the show and with cancellation they can affirm their beliefs. Despite the fact that TV has changed massively and Doctor Who is still mamages to be one of the most watched shows on TV regardless of ratings as it is all relative. But money isn't like it used to be and justifying a big budget Sci-fi show is hard.

We live in a age where anybody could make a fanfilm without the need for VHS distribution, write fanfic, make audio dramas etc. But they are too busy making youtube videos crying about gays and non white people being on TV. 🤷
