I love you gladiators

Comet is gorgeous and Athena is gorgeous

[@ronki23]

Comet is a beauty

[@felipepavzin9208]

It's a Amazing just feeling nostagic overall ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@andromedaone3640]

Nice more great gladiators smaller but with lots of energy. These two should lighten up the area. ❤

YES, I can’t WAIT to see Gladiators BACK on Saturday night television at the new arena home in Sheffield Arena and in the new channel home on BBC One in Autumn 2023 for the first time in 23 years in terrestrial television since the last ever episode in the original series on Gladiators came to an end on ITV on the 1st January 2000. Now we have 16 new gladiators with their 1990’s style uniforms including 8 new female gladiators in red like Athena, Comet, Diamond, Dynamite, Electro, Fire, Fury and Sabre and 8 new male gladiators in blue like Apollo, Bionic, Giant, Legend, Nitro, Phantom, Steel and Viper the new gladiator villain and the new Wolf on Saturday night television. The dad and son duo Bradley and Barney Walsh will present the iconic 1990’s Saturday night television series. Gladiators in the BBC One series will be BETTER than the crap reboot series in the Sky original and here is the famous catchphrase from my favourite wrestler Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart the Canadian wrestling legend in WWE ‘The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be’.

Needs to be like the original as that was very successful. Will wait and see🤔

[@acta739]

Really looking forward to this ! Anyone knows when released?

[@steventhompson3268]

Nobody is telling you to see what date Gladiators will release BBC One’s very first trailer yet until Autumn 2023. No spoilers.

[@felipepavzin9208]

Bring Gladiators to Brazil in 2024

[@victoriagallivan3284]

[@kambooomer]

i feel bad comet got injured she was siogood in the episodes she was in

[@thegeorgeshow4158]

Comet is pretty and hot

[@startracker5895]

Comet was too injured to even turn up on the first episode!

[@SRC267]

Two gladiators are yet to show in the next episode, Comet and Bionic. They are not injured.

[@ScapoloMichael]

Comet sustained a brutal injury in one of the later episodes. Haven't seen episode 4 yet so not sure when

[@sandeepsmatharu]

Athena should be have been called Haldi

[@victoriagallivan3284]

Best Gladiator Is APOLLO

[@helicoptergunship]

Comet should be athena and athena should be comet

[@ronki23]

How come?

[@ur.fav.ginger.25]

i disagree.

[@helicoptergunship]

@@ur.fav.ginger.25 ok?

[@juniortate2373]

Some of these new gladiators are tiny compared to the originals Lol

[@steventhompson3268]

I read the news last week that the BBC football commentator Guy Mowbray will commentate Gladiators in the new channel home on BBC One this autumn.

[@Widemouth1832]

DEI Athena looks a little flabby for a gladiator.

[@MegaMarie]

Back then they did steroids

[@juniortate2373]

​​@@MegaMarieI think at least one or two of them is on steroids now lol

[@pinkbeatle2012]

except Giant, he's bigger than most of the old cast put together

[@welshie1979]

Couple of poor gladiators and Athena is certainly one of them

[@1986kmcc]

Ironic he moved her more than she moved him, biology I suppose 😂

[@sexydudeuk2172]

This show is gonna flop

[@Dim4323]

Nah

[@sexydudeuk2172]

@@Dim4323 um yes are you forgetting they already tried it in 2008 and it failed?

[@romelgonzales2754]

​@@sexydudeuk2172that was the US version I believe so it could be a different story in the UK

[@sexydudeuk2172]

@@romelgonzales2754 uh no you're wrong there was a uk version revival of gladiators in 2008 that was shown on sky one i should know as i watched it when it aired. Look it up

[@raindancer80]

@@sexydudeuk2172 I think its more likely to flop because it is on TV and hardly anyone watches TV anymore. The Sky version flopped because they did it on the cheap in a much smaller venue, people compared it to the original which still looks like a big event and that hurt it. If they try and do this one cheaply it'll flop too.

Will be woke and shit
