Hats off to the BBC and everyone who worked on this, it's one of the most authentic-feeling revivals of any programme I've ever seen - hitting all the nostalgia buttons without feeling cautious or derivative. You can tell it was a labour of love. After watching the final I put on an old episode of the 1993 series and despite the obvious differences, after a while it felt like it melded into one and you forgot it was 30 years ago. Here's to the next series!

Honestly, this reboot of Glads has been just so amazing and the best ever...just quite sad it's all over now.😢😢 I loved it...perhaps the 2 winners at the end should have been surrounded by the amazing Gladiators?? This is the only series where every Gladiator is great in their way...will miss this reboot but seriously, well done and great show Beeb!!❤❤❤🎉🎉👏👏

I think the question is whether there's such a huge generational community in the US that fondly remembers your original version like there is here. If there is, all it takes is someone to make a revival taking the same attitude as the BBC did with this one and then the audience will come.

@@myrants5836 Even if you were right (which you obviously weren't), it was well under a quarter of a second, less than a mere third of the 0.75-1-second difference at the finish line. She would've won, anyway. Quit your whining and get over it. This is not a sporting event, least of all the Olympics, and besides, less than a quarter of a second's worth of jumping the gun can easily be overlooked.

Mark Clattenburgh allows Marie-Louise to jump the start negating the average 0.16 - 0.2 second reaction time to the whistle! He then blows a near 3 seconds after the 1st whistle! Instead of a 2 second head start, it’s a 3 second plus start! Given how close the finish was, it’s a tainted win! I didn’t mind who won, I was neutral but this wasn’t fair! Check times: Marie-Louise moves just before 11 seconds, Ref blows just after 11 seconds and then he blows for the 2nd whistle right on 14 seconds for Brontë! The clock doesn’t lie!
