All the old adverts 😂…one of the best shows to ever be on tv! Anyone who was a kid or even an adult back then knew this show was just great !!! The reboot is good but can never beat the classic show
After seeing Lightning's funny performance on The Wall, if this episode was ever included on a video and/or DVD, it would probably receive a PG certificate
The charity minibus at the 10 minute mark was also used by the school I attended (Stourminster Special School, Kidderminster) so my local school was able to use it too.
@@brandonmartin-moore5302 I not only got to see but got to enjoy the trips using it, mainly going to a local leisure center for our swimming lessons and it was used later for travelling to a farm in Stourport where horse riding lessons were given to children with learning disabilities, myself being one of them.
have you got any of the 1994 episodes of uk gladiators? none of them seem to be uploaded on youtube for some reason, if you have can you upload them please, cheers?
Simply because Britain in the 90s the number of professional sportswomen were few with tiny salaries/sponsorships and even so, would the public even have known about them? Can't be a celebrity if the press didn't give you coverage which unfortunately was and still is the case for the majority of sports women. Not to mention society's treatment of women who wanted to work out or bodybuild back then, they were seen as freaks, lesbians or tomboys. No social media culture to normalise or make money from your appearance either, jobs were extremely limited to a handful of parts playing minor characters in movies, TV and adult entertainment, not exactly glamorous.
Most of the elite level female athletes in Britain ended up being Gladiators - Sharon Davies, Kate Staples and Judy Simpson, a.k.a. Amazon, Zodiac and Nightshade. It's the highest form of compliment already, in my opinion 😄 Or maybe the show just never asked them because they didn't think it was what audiences wanted to see. Or it was pure and blatant sexism. The show didn't have an Ultimate Gladiator competition for the female Gladiators either, sadly. Lightning tried to explain why it didn't happen and it was something to do with time constraints and how many episodes or air time the show had left on their contract. She also said that she didn't think she would fare very well anyway as she had only given birth 3 weeks prior to filming the men's episode and her only event (The Wall) on the final year champions series
I am happy that Derek Redmond won the celebrity special of uk gladiators. it was just the guys only. they use some events that the guys are chased or sparred by the female gladiators for fun neener neener neener the female gladiators cant catch these male challengers. on the wall when lightning caught grabbed and pulled ellery hanley down from the wall ellery hugged lightning derek redmond got away from zodiac. jet caught grabbed and pulled mark bosnich off the wall. on the pursuit event derek redmond got away from lightning. jet caught eddie kidd early on the pursuit event by default for eddie kidd cheating by going back to the monkey bars and chasing jet nightshade and zodiac got side tracked for losing track on chasing their correct male challenger. the dangerous events are for the male gladiators only to play with the male challengers. panther got disqualified for cheating by shortcuting and obsticle to catch ellery hanley. falcon catches barry mcguigan on the pursuit event. whoo these male gladiators barnyarding these male challengers. sincerely Derek kinman

That Martin is an idiot making out the gladiator was so slow he had time to do his laces before the finish line. Why did John Anderson allow the points for The 2nd round of Pursuit? . Martin took the wrong wire bridge causing the gladiator's chashing the wrong contenders, then Martin didn't even do the hand leader given him a massive lead. Zodiac was robbed of her victory which she would had slayed. And that comment about Nightshade changing colour doesn't sit right.
Still though, I stand firm about the Nightshade changing colour not sounding round. But then it was mid 90s, awareness wasn't as it is today in regards to jokes about skin colour coming across as offensive.
Wow people are hyper-sensitive... dude saw a different person behind him, and didn't look like the gladiator originally chasing. And in the heat of competition, they're not going to take the time to look closely in order to appease virtue signalers. Skin's the largest organ on the body, and I'm not sure you noticed, but the uniforms could be described as "skimpy".
34:34 "what's he doing? He's chasing Jet now, and who can blame him?!" 😂 top class commentary, Alan Partridge-esque
I love Gladiators 1995.
Nice that Mike Adamle came aboard for this.
Sad that he now has dementia

Hunter TOP SHAGGER
Hunter and Ulrika were shagging everyone around that time.
Whose recording of "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf was used?
I'm guessing the Disney Silly Symphonies version, but I could be wrong... ua-cam.com/video/ShE27Hst_NM/v-deo.html
I wonder how many people who used Mortgage Consolidation companies ended up losing everything?
Who’s afraid of the big bad wolf?
This was about the last of Shadow, could've infact been his last episode.
18:00 MERRY CHRISTMAS

I thought Eddie had already had his accident by this point. Cool to see him again.
17:38 Nice butt! LOL 😄😄😄
LOL Naughty Wolf!
Wow cool Offiah and Ellery together.
shadow's eyes are crazy
This guy can beat the sun in a stare contest
What drugs do to you
Shadow was dismissed for drugs and ruined his career
@ 15:40 these two are 'aveing a good old time
Let the games begin
Last I heard, Eddie Kidd is now confined to a wheelchair.
I didn't recognize one of the so called "celebrities". Must be the European version of American Gladiators?
Jeff Harvey
It’s Jeff Harvey!
And The Brian Kendrick
Scorpio's first and only time on the left side of The Wall.
I liked Scorpio... Falcon didnt really appear on The Wall after this. I'm sure she did it again.
The voice over in the advert at 0:28 sounds somewhat familiar.
It could be Ray Winstone.
@@danielwilliamson6180that is most certainly not Ray Winstone
At least this Celeb special seemed fair unlike the last one which was a total fix for Fash to win.
Duel is the UK version of Joust.
@RIotpir1972 danger zone is called assault on American gladiators
hi can i ask what year is this
1994, after the third main series, but just before the International Gladiators series.
And just after the Armed Forces special which Fash Presented solo and shown the week after this.
Tubewings hi can I ask what year is this
Remember This And The Armed Forces Challenge
36:45 wtf?!?!?!?!?!?!
@Joe Bloggs do you know my age?
How old are you?
@Joe Bloggs how old are you?
@Joe Bloggs correct, I am a middle aged woman, likely the same generation as you. Don't make sweeping assumptions.
Mike addamly had a controversial spell in wwe where he got things ridiculously wrong

51:07 "Sprinting not an asset in this event" Yeah I'm sure the ability to use explosive speed for 40 seconds won't help at all.
Jim Giant 7s
Anyone know what year this is from?
1994
@@helensimpson317 One year before the US gladiators and contenders compete in the International series.
This must have been shortly before Eddie Kidd had his accident and became paralysed.
I've notice in ever Gladiators Specials there are no female sport Celebrity or any military armed forces appear at all why 🤔?

wondering if this episode was the start of the Ulrika Jonsson and Mark Bosnich's relationship.. shh don't tell Stan Collymore
Think I’d rather he caught by jet and just forfeit the points lol
Slightly jealous of Ellery and Mark!! Lucky so and so’s!
Ellary Hanley Won Gladiators regardless of who actually won Gladiators lol
Who on earth are these people 😂
