I feel like most Saturday TV from my childhood wouldn’t hold up, but in my mind at least Gladiators was the exception! Really hope they don’t ruin it.
(17:50, BBC1 for the unaware)
Ha, I enjoyed that. Trashy TV of the most enjoyable kind but good clean fun as well. Although I have to agree with whoever it was on Mastodon said that it looked like every round was designed to cater to a very specific kink or fetish!
The suggestiveness of Hang Tough definitely went over my head as a child!
I must be one of the few who hated it when it was on during the 90’s. I know it was insanely popular but I never got why.
It’s because you could shout “GLADIATORS! READY!” in your best scottish accent and then wallop your brother with a cushion until either one of you got injured or a parent intervened.
I think.
