22 - Gladiators

This next entry is a far cry from the Ancient Roman traditions that inspired this show but nevertheless the series did not fail to entertain the masses in the same way as its ancestral counterpart.  This series is of course Gladiators.

The show was a phenomenal success during the 90s spawning from the original US series several countries around the world had their own versions and the UK was no exception.  I loved watching the Gladiators and the child I was back then I always rooted for the Gladiators to win and the contestants to go down in flames.  Well the show wasn't 'that' dramatic but it was certainly full of highs and lows for the contestants.

My favourite events were without a doubt:

The Atlaspheres:


The Duel:



And Hang Tough:



Perhaps the most interesting though would be the Skytrak:
