Gladiators #2

[Also_smoke_and_mirrors]

I saw nitro's video yesterday too and Viper looks so different smiling and not putting on the exaggerated frowning. I remember during series 1, seeing a video of a few of them on a night out and hardly recognising Viper in it because he had a massive grin on his face and was speaking with a proper london accent and not just a deep growl. I became a bit of a fan of his immediately!

Hammer is an embarrassment. Always talks about himself in the third person and with an undeserved air of main character syndrome. Then he tries to dance with this polystyrene hammer and looks like one of the dwarves in the safety dance video. Nitro needs to give him some lessons.

Imagine being a new gladiator introduced the same time as cyclone and she just makes you look like you skipped leg AND arm days.

I didn’t like Aneila she was a bad loser last week and this week had a face like a wet fish

Yes I had a real dislike for her. Her attitude was awful

 

[Jemadah]

Is it part of Legend’s contract that he has to appear in every episode? None of the other injured gladiators have made appearances once they’re out

Legend is a legend. I was sad when he was injured as I love the character he plays, so I'm glad he's still being included somehow.

I enjoyed it. It was like what would happen if we just put normal people into the olympics

 

[F1Grid]

Utter woke nonsense, as they say.

 

[CherryAcid]

He always makes me cringe, think its the turkey teeth

Injured and not competing - Cyclone, Fury.

New female Gladiator names - Huntress, Gold Star (yes, Gold Star).
New male Gladiator name - Highlander.

4 events and the eliminator per show now rather than 5 events.

Gold Star maybe series 2 winner, Amanda.

 

[Trafalgar]

Like all of us didnt see this coming. He will be regretting some of his life decisions right now.

I’ve only just watched the Xmas special and I cannot believe Vogue was allowed to be named as the winner!! Terrible. Also notice she hasn’t put it on her social media at all, and Nicola has liked this comment

 

[Trafalgar]

WOW, bet he’s so full of regret right now. They’re about to start filming series 4. Bet he wish he’d kept his mouth shut, wonder if he hadn’t gone to the press he might have got invited back for filming!! The production company just said Giant was leaving , they didn’t give any detail.

I just said the same to himself! They wont have him back in my opinion after he bad mouthed them all over the media. Too much of a risk. He thought he was bigger than the show.

 

[Bobcatbobbins]

Bet he has a tiny cock as well

 

[Mammalou]

If he wants to put his money where is mouth is, he should launch a free online fitness program for kids.

Vogue would still be climbing that rope now if they hadn't brought the ladder in. What a swizz.

Loved the moment with Nicola and Fury

Glad they are bringing in a few new games. The one with the perspex wall looks interesting. Seems like a kind of "push-of-war" as opposed to "tug-of-war".

Didn't see Diamond or Legend last night, good to have Nitro back though.

 

[DeniseRoyle]

Who will he be once the novelty of Giant from Gladiators wears off?
The OF GF will move onto the next bloke who'll get her more free publicity for her subscriptions

 

[Kerrie86]

Yeah I think gauntlet is rubbish! Honestly I think most of the events have lost their shine now and I often find I tune out of watching them now I think about it.
id quite like to see pyramid but it was dangerous AF for everyone wasn’t it?

 

[Claymorekick]

Legend is probably my favourite Gladiator ever. Especially in the reboot as there are a lot of very bland gladiators in there!

Me too - he has really made the character work, can back it up (usually) with strong performances and definitely makes the show a million times better.

However, I have noticed that the other gladiators are being given more air time with the mic which is not a bad thing. Some of the quieter ones are developing personalities this series

 

[pecan]

SO happy to see Mus smashing that eliminator. Amazing!!

 

[LaBlonde]

ngl i felt emotional watching zavia do the eliminator! the pain on her face, i have no clue how she pushed through it

 

[ElectricDreams]

Tonight is the episode we saw filmed! We've already seen our mugs on screen a couple of times and a friend text me to say she'd spotted us too its interesting to see how its been put together, as it was filmed in a different sequence to what is shown.
