Watched it on iPlayer withmy wife. Overall bloody good silly fun. Kept it very similar to the 90's for the most part, didn't realise the cheerleaders were missing till she pointed it out and was good. Yeah I enjoyed it, a good pretty faithful reboot.
Loved tonights first comeback episode, so nostalgic and im glad they kept things so similar but with a modern twist!!! Looking forward to watching the whole series, thanks bbc for bringing this iconic show back ❤
@@JamieSMB-nx1yg I know the show has been renewed for another season but ratings are declining. There were 8.7 million views when the show started and according to wikipedia the last show aired they were down to just 4.5 million. This means they have lost nearly half their viewers over the past 2 months which is a cause for concern The way ratings are going this show would be lucky to last another season
GLADIATOR's Ready, Contestants Ready? 3-2-1 PEEP! ITS BACK!!😭😭😭🤩🤩🤩😊😊😊Oh YEAH!! Saturday 90's entertainment was so awesome✌️✌️✌️!! I can’t WAIT😭!!!🥳🥳!!👏👏👏!
A couple of work mates went to a recording with their families. They told me it was good, but joked that the Gladiators aren't big as they once were due to no steroids.
YES, we cannot WAIT to see Gladiators BACK on Saturday night television on the 13th January 2024 for the first time in 24 years in terrestrial television since the original Gladiators came to an emotional end with the last ever episode on the 1st January 2000 in the old channel home on ITV filmed in the old arena home in the National Indoor Arena, Birmingham (now Utlita Arena Birmingham since the 15th April 2020 in the present) and this will look good as the original series on ITV and better than the crap reboot series on Sky.
@@steventhompson3268 I also think its was good to have Bradley and Barney Walsh as the hosts those two are hilarious togeather i think they will do a great job hosting
That’s right, Gladiators in the reboot series on BBC One reintroduces the original theme song in the opening title and it will look better than the crap reboot series on Sky.
I just hope the theme music is back in full, and they haven't butchered it, or cut bits out. Couldn't really tell from seeing one of the episodes being filmed.

All I want to see is a badass retro intro sequence, the original retro soundtrack, and some actual personality from the gladiators. Then I’ll be happy. The only thing that worries me are the hosts. As much as I like Bradley walsh. Not sure he and his son will be a good fit for this. But we’ll see.
Just loving this BBC reboot of Gladiator's. I grew up with the original series but this one tops em all. Great cohort of Gladiators for 2024...and exceptional ones are; Giant and Fury ....really looking their part and living upto it well. Beeb did a fab job on Intro title graphics (best ever) plus, love the original music played in the opening and closing titles. (Just bring back the original music for 'Hang tough' from the 90s.) For me, this Beeb reboot of Gladiators is BETTER than the original and loving it! ❤️ ❤😊
Can't wait for this 90's nostalgia trip :D. Thank god it looks like they've kept the original format and not tried to "modernize" it. All I need now is for Krypton factor to return!
BBC should become subscription only for specific content that individuals are interested in. Yes there should be a baseline for everyone, but this is it. I resent paying £41 quarterly for this shit
So none of you have Netflix and saw Muscles and Mayhem? The behind the scenes of the American version? Am surprised this got the green light! Ah yes, BBC now has the rights so no surprise there…

Modern twist: a contender pointed out she was a lesbian.

This is the only reason to turn on the BBC. Hope it's good!
Super excited! How do people become contestants?! I've always wanted to be on this show since I was a kid!
OMFG! Bring it on!
This looks way better than the reboot they tried before, with the water and half the size of the arena.
Enjoying this - watched first ep 👍
WOW WHAT A TEASER
Gladiators on BBC One has gone out of the Christmas present.
Can’t wait!! Loved this show as a kid
First episode lived up to the hype, amazing!!
Gladiators are Legends forever. Very very good show.
I am so excited for this. Loved watching this back in day when me woz younger
ARE WE ALL READY!!
I just hope the theme music is back in full, and they haven't butchered it, or cut bits out. Couldn't really tell from seeing one of the episodes being filmed.
I think it is
So far, so good.

My childhood show omg 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Don't miss it on bbc one
40 secs of Awesome Action
Can’t wait for this!!!
Thank you bbc for bringing this iconic show back not to mention keeping the theme tune the same absolutely love it 👌🏻👍🏻😊
Blimey, BBC taking on an ITV Relic, thats unusual.
Just watched the first episode and, honestly, it's pretty good, yeah, it's camp and ridiculous but in the absolute best possible way.
I remember the old gladiators show. Everyone used to watch it for Jet.
I love how it sounds the same with the voice over
They need to bring the travelator music back!! Was the only thing this was missing
This game show will never die and im really glad its back on TV
All I want to see is a badass retro intro sequence, the original retro soundtrack, and some actual personality from the gladiators. Then I’ll be happy. The only thing that worries me are the hosts. As much as I like Bradley walsh. Not sure he and his son will be a good fit for this. But we’ll see.
Judging by the trailer, it sounds like they’re using the original theme song 👍
ITS BAACK YES
Come on I can’t wait for this

It's going to be fun I was lucky enough to be in the audience (episode with a guy from Sheffield)
Same! Oldest contender ever
@crocodilewrestler yeah that's the one I went on my own and got to sit facing climbing wall, i never realised how long stuff like that took to film
I heard there will be an event based on the game sideswipe
I wish theyd theme the outfits to their names more, so they all stood out
AMAZING ❤❤❤
What's the size of the seating area compared to the NEC? Hope they do the show justice :)
BBC should become subscription only for specific content that individuals are interested in. Yes there should be a baseline for everyone, but this is it. I resent paying £41 quarterly for this shit
Every one of those glads are former Olympic medallists in their various sports & also have their own gyn
Series 11 Overall
I am shocked there wasn't a Gladiators movie.
Just always reminds me of tea time ITV
Gladiators, Baywatch, Thunder in Paradise & Disneys Dinosaurs
Is there a way to watch this in the US?
Vpn
HHHHYYYYYYPPPPPPEEEEEE OOOVVVEEERRRLLLOOOAAADDD!!!!!!
I used to love this show as a kid I can't wait to see this new show x
Good to see it back. Would've preferred it if presented by someone from a sporting background ...
Omg I remember going to see that at Wembley Arena.
Finally a show worth watching on BBC1 on a Saturday night again. Just need Noels house party to return next.
I IM READY👍😊🤩😎😁
I wonder if any of the Gladiators from the original series or the 2008 series will appear.
Bradley Walsh must have great affluence over the BBC. He has piked his son on to the TV. Where will it stop?
The ref should be Scottish
I’m so ready for Gladiators, and I remember watching the physical show when I was younger.
So none of you have Netflix and saw Muscles and Mayhem? The behind the scenes of the American version? Am surprised this got the green light!
Ah yes, BBC now has the rights so no surprise there…
They kept the same theme tune after 30 odd years 😂😂😂
It 'll NEVER be a patch on the 90s version
Nah ....I'm preferring this reboot. They also got rid of the cheerleaders too.
each to their own taste then
Where's good old wolf? He should be there too
I don’t think so, because Wolf is far too old to return to the arena .
@@steventhompson3268have you seen him lately? 🤣 He really really wanted to come back 😂
Are you ready for today's episode.
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Too bad "Two Scoops" threw his life away with bad choices. The best contender in the history of the show hands down.
Missing was the other iconic music to go with the game events
Can’t wait… Folks, Saturday evenings are back 😁
Wheres the fash?!?!?
Bring back the old duel music. Thanks lol
I cannot wait for this!!!! Just hoping Bradley Walsh isn’t going to ruin it!
Brad won’t ruin it.

If Bradley and Barney are hosting it’s all down to the show it’s self
I saw episode five being filmed and they did a sterling job. Be kind.

It's gonna flop. They already tried it in 2008 and it failed miserably

BBC? Used to be ITV no?
Well...I reckon Viper is the new "Wolf" the way things are going...he looks about the only interesting character...always go for the one upsetting the apple cart as they're more interesting!. Nice to see a Scottish Gladiator amongst the new in take...at least the majority of the old format is still there. I think that maybe Bradley's son though is the "Weakest Link"...maybe he might not last as long as he thinks he will...
25 hours 28 minutes and counting
How come it isn't called American Gladiators?
Because it's from the uk
Not as good as the 90's gladiators...not as intense,but still a good watch.
Better than the SkyOne gladiators a few years back for sure though
NO... this reboot tops em all. Loving it!
I liked it i liked da new balance beam jus before travelator rather than straight a bend at start must make it slightly more trickier and why did the men not get the handbike?a ladder jus makes it far too easy 4 them yes I'm evil want them arms burning
this series is too much of a comedy. whereas original one had a serious tone to it which made it feel legit
I prefer the 1990s one tbh
...Properly policed.
So glad gladiators is back but Barney is hopeless, so out of his depth.
