Gladiators Reboot

[EineReiseDurchDieZeit]

Anyone watching ?

AWOOGA!

Yes 😁

Although slightly behind as had to pause it to put dinner in, and will have to again when serving up

Apollo is very nice to look at 😍

Legend looks really really familiar, according to DH he's a you tuber but don't watch you tube stuff so no idea why he's so familiar.

Duel 😁

I'm watching for the nostalgia

They need a Wolf style panto character though

I love that they haven’t tried to mess about with it, it’s all just the same as it was.

They're huge!

It's for everyone who said they'd go on Gladiators when they grew up

I remember the fabulous Eunice!

I think I'd bail off that platform if I saw Giant across from me 😂

How nice to see normal (albeit super fit) women no massive lips or love island look that seems to be everywhere

I always wanted to 😂 think I'd keel over if I tried now - fat and not at all fit! I'd have no chance at hang tough I can't even do a pull up

It looks like Viper has been given that role!

Viper is definitely Wolf even down to the headwear

Watching it all by myself ! For nostalgic reasons obvs😂

My kids are absolutely loving it!

It’s really good- my primary aged kids are loving it!

Who is the referee? It can't be the same one as last time, surely.

I think they've maybe picked a Scot on purpose

Yes, it's very distinctive 'Contenderrrrr readyyyyy'

I loath this show , but been made to watch it for the nostalgia!
The Ref is hot , so that's made it a tad more bearable
It was always loud rubbish and it's not changed much !ol

It's Mark Clattenberg, he's a retired Premier League football ref

He's from the North East, possibly Newcastle

Watching with my kids (primary) and loving it.
Kids enjoying it and I'm liking the way they've kept it like the original.
Nice to have something to watch together, reminds me of when I was a kid with family shows on a Saturday night

Thanks @MargotMoon . I thought he sounded Scottish!

Apollo 😍

BW son looks like George Russell (F1 driver). DH pointed it out and I now can't unsee it!

It’s all a bit desperate isn’t it? Mind you, I do admire the hard work that’s gone into those gladiatorial bodies. I have to laugh at the gladiators signature moves though, do you think they make them up themselves or is there a signature move coach?

We chorused "MARK CLATTENBERG?!" in total astonishment, then DH bimbled off muttering about Everton and bias.

Totally thought he was Scottish
