Who is your favourite Gladiator

[noblegiraffe]

And why is it Legend?

Gutted that he is injured but glad he is still popping up and doing funny bits.

Cyclone is the best female gladiator, obviously. Just incredible.

Thanks, I will definitely watch this! Looking forward to seeing how small everything looks next to him.

@sorryIdidntmeanto attractive? yes. Good looking/beautiful? no. But I guess it depends on what you consider facially beautiful.

I love it when Giant unfurls the dinosaur folds he has going on!

nitro is just a beautiful happy soul and really wanted him to win strictly!

Fury is so lovely too!

Legend makes great telly

Russell Crow

We’re Fury fans in this house

we also like Sabre

boys we love Steel and Phantom. I also have a soft spot for Hammer and Giant

Giant all the way

Nitro, Comet, Electro and Hammer

Yeah I don’t like it. Not sure why!!!

Right, those back muscles - is he unusual for having them? He basically turns into a triangle.

Giant & Diamond

I’m 6ft like diamond so like to compare stats when hers pop up - dp laughs as I’m a puny weed,..

Have you noticed that Sabre has stopped doing the thing where she lifts her leg up and shows her bum to the camera?

Is that you Lengend?

He is definitely my favourite, so cheeky but funny.

I think Apollo looks like a little boy, more to the fact, the little boy off Boss Baby.

Fury is my favourite. I love her rugby background and her takedowns are amazing. She’s also so genuine and amazing on her SM talking about her experiences as a deaf role model.

I also like Diamond and Dynamite. Both amazing.

Nitro is an excitable Labrador puppy.

I like Apollo more this series, he doesn’t seem to be taking himself quite so seriously.

Viper is a pathetic “villain” and just not very good, and should be given the boot.

Legend is rather annoying. But I actually like his Matt does Fitness stuff, I knew him from that before Gladiators so I’m annoyed they’ve made him into this panto role.

Is that you Lengend?

You've spelt "Generational Hero" wrong.

Legend, Nitro, Giant

As pathetic as he is they will never get rid of Viper as he's one for the kids. If you ask any kid, they mostly love him, if not then he is one of the most memorable for them.

I don't think Athena is overweight but she is definitely bigger than last season - probably intentionally though if she's still power lifting competitively

Hammer's dance in my opinion has turned him into bit of a parody, and when he opens his mouth, the voice doesn't match with the exterior at all!

I think Bionic is underrated and I'm glad he has come out of his shell a bit more!

I'm with you on that one! Was also thinking Maximus Decimus Meridius ...phwoarr

What, as a contestant or presenter?!? I’ve only watched the series where Keil (fella from ghosts) presented - I thought he did a good job but I think he only did one series. Cannot imagine a gladiator on it!!

of the gladiators, I also love nitro, he’s just got such a great energy and he’s really gracious to the contestants. Apollo is the easiest on the eye for me.
We love Athena in this house, but you don’t see her that often which is such a shame. Fury also amazing obviously. My youngest is strongly mistrustful of Comet, oddly!

@Mumofmaraudershe was in it. I posted the link further up the thread.

Ahh just seen your link up thread. I can’t wait to watch this 🧵!

We love Saturday night gladiators! Reminds me of when I used to watch it as a kid with my parents back in the 90s.

My fave boys are Apollo, Steele and Phantom.
Fave girls Fury, Dynamite and Diamond.

My 8yr old loves Dynamite and Giant.
My husband likes Sabre and Legend.

Would love to go and see the show being recorded!

Phantom because I have eyes (swoon)

all the women are fantastic - sabre is the best!

Apollo is the lovechild of Peter Serafinowicz

Viper is hilarious. I know it’s all panto villain stuff but his craziness really makes me laugh.

Legend obviously for the bants.

Nitro and Bionic seem genuinely nice.

From the females I think Cyclone is very good but a bit mean. Fury seems lovely and Sabre has crazy ex girlfriend vibes about her.

Apollo I just can’t warm to for some reason.
