Epic news that the Crystal Maze is coming back

http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/a193669/holden-to-front-new-crystal-maze.html

Shame they picked her to present it :confused:

odd choice and only being celebs only is a bit of a downer.. makes it much like all the other celeb programmes.

Still hoping it will be quite good though, Kryton Factor was OK when it came back but not seen it recently.

Will never be the same without Richard O'Brien, but still great news and I'll def watch!

The Dread Pirate · 4 Jan 2010 at 11:52

If Richard isn't returning does that mean "Mumsie" won't be either?

Shamikebab · 4 Jan 2010 at 11:55

Amanda Holden :/

Guerrilla · 4 Jan 2010 at 11:56

Will definately give it a chance when it starts, but i can see it being pretty crap and not the Crystal Maze in the slightest.

platypus · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:01

It will be crap.

Eddie · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:06

I used to like it myself but it won't be the same with Richard whatshisface not doing it (how come he isn't doing it anyway?) and so-called 'celebrities' instead of just ordinary people.

I'll watch the first one but I'm not holding my breath.

Celebs = Fail.

Holden = Fail.

Smit · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:16

Will give the 1st episode a watch, the Crystal Maze was always great fun

I wonder if they will keep the old games or not!

why not harry hill???

Marky · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:18

Ahh I got all excited at first - but it'll be rubbish with just celebrities on it

Duke · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:22

It would have been great if Richard O'Brien did present it again, he was quite quirky.

jms198 · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:23

Continuing the trend of resurrecting dead TV shows with celebritys. No Richard O'brian will definately kill it.

Which was the one with the Brian blessed look alike on kids tv, dungeon master or something with the helemt where they couldn't see. I would like to see that with a drunk Brian blessed shouting abuse at celebrities as they try to coordinate their blind celebrity friend!

z0mbi3 · 4 Jan 2010 at 12:25

Hope they keep the original music as well tbh.

I’m not sure about having celebrities as contestants but I’ll watch it and see.

Just watch the re-runs on Challenge or whatever the channel is called these days. Classic TV

Converge · 4 Jan 2010 at 13:04

Her mouth scares me.

Right, I've got 2 minutes to read this thread..........................

.....what do I do???? I don't know.....

.........I'm coming out!!!

As a child I used to watch Crystal Maze, but now whenever I watch old episodes on challenge I can't help but laugh at how a large number of people back in those days fail at doing the most simple of tasks on the crystal maze. If this new crystal maze was being made like the old one, I might have watched it just to laugh at people who can't manage basic skills, but by the sounds of it this new crystal maze is not worth watching at all.
