49 points was a domestic record for a contender (for a 5-event show). No wonder the Glads had it in for Dave on the Gauntlet. He embarrassed them all night and showed why he was the best.
34:45-35:00 Saracen:- HE'S GOTTA CROSS THE LINE!!! John Anderson:- I'M REFEREE!!! Saracen:- HE'S GOTTA CROSS THE LINE!!! John Anderson:- I'M REFEREE!!! YOU!!! OUT!!! Saracen:- HE NEVER CROSSED THE LINE!!! John Anderson:- YOU DID!!! OUT!!!
For another season, the pairings for the Quarters changed order. Sharon and Dave should have been in QF2. Pauline and Neil should have faced Louise and Cass in QF 1.
The application of the explanation at 39.50 can be seen that in the second section when Cassius was put out he moved on to the next section as opposed to having to go back to the start of the section as with Rhino.
35:50-37:00 SARACEN:- Well As Far I'm Concerned, He's Suppose To CROSS THE WHITE LINE & He Didn't CROSS THE WHITE LINE!!! Regardless Of Whether I Step Back Into THE NEXT ZONE, He's Still Got To CROSS MY WHITE LINE & He Never Did!!! John Anderson:- SARACEN SHOULD KNOW BETTER HE'S BEEN IN THIS GAME FOR A LONG TIME!!! THE GLADIATORS ARE NOT ALLOWED, TO MOVE INTO THE NEXT ZONE, THEY HAVE TO STOP WHEN THEY GET TO THE END OF THE LINE!!! HE DOESN'T SEEM TO KNOW THAT NOW HE KNOWS THAT I'M TELLING HIM AGAIN!!! SARACEN:- I Don't Believe That Because I'm Livid!!! Whether The Contender Cross The Line Afterwards I Don't Believe It!!! HUNTER:- Look, GAUNTLET Is A Rough Game The Contenders Come They Know Their Gonna Get Bashed! I Had My Man Their I Was Pinning Him I Was Bashing Him I Was Whacking Him! If He Wants A Squeeze He Can Have A Squeeze But In Our Minds He Didn't Get Through!!! John Anderson:- Well! EITHER!!! Either The Gladiators Learn To Play To The Rules, Or There Is No Game! They Should Know The Rules They Are Told The Rules & Just Because It Didn't Suit Them, Doesn't Mean That They Can Do What They Like, NOT WHILE I'M REFEREE!!!
Damn, John Anderson really winded up the Glads on the Men's Gauntlet when he told them how it is even when they disagreed with it, particularly Hunter and Saracen!
@@nicoladale1668 Wolf and Vulcan acted badly for entertainment purposes, Wolf did a very good job of it,, Wolf wasn't very competitive either he was actually quite laid back when it came to it. Hunter was very competitive however, hated losing and his petulance would come out from time to time nothing wrong with that its good to a degree. Saracen just never wrapped his head around the rules with regards to the Gauntlett throughout the shows history, hence his re-occurring frustration when playing it, it was the only game I ever seen him lose his cool on and it was always down to a difference of opinion with the decisions made by Anderson,, he was brilliant as a glad 99% of the time.
@@nicoladale1668 SARACEN for some reason really seems to lose it only in GAUNTLET When things don't go well for HUNTER he starts to throw his toys out the pram
Hunter lost the plot in this episode on gauntlet, were they pissed at Dave for how he beat Cobra on hang tough or something? Also, Cass clearly jumped out of the gauntlet of his own choice, so the right decision was made there also. Not sure what the big deal is about as Wolf gave Cass a free pass on hang tough by doing his usual clownery. I think Hunter was also pissed as Dave was too good for him on swing ball. Very fragile egos in some of these guys...
In Sharon's Run of GAUNTLET it didn't look to me as if she got her whole body over the finish line, perhaps John Anderson ruled that FOX was holding her illegally.
26 years on & I really wanted Roger Cook to Call Out John Anderson for his antics Because he was AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE In the Gauntlet & He Made My Blood BOIL, Sadly it didn't happen & is not going to as John Anderson passed Away this year.
On 2nd viewing I've changed my mind about Dave Walton being an average winner,, he was very good in fact, scored heavily and seemed to be like a horse idling in front on this particular eliminator as well, but once Cass went to his girth he sped up and bolted clear 🤣 some need to be challenged before producing their best I guess, whereas most buckle under pressure when it comes to the challenge.
@@therebel4332 I think Dave proved himself in The Quarter-Finals & The Semi-Finals as I thought he was against some tough competition in those episodes
Did Cassius use his feet on Wolf during Hang Tough. As Sarah Damm did the same against Lightning and was not DQed it begs the question whether using your feet is permitted.
I think they used their discretion to suit their own personal bias imo. They didn't like Cassius from the start so he got a lot of silly heat. I think his mate didn't help matters though to be fair, a loud mouth that seemed to hate white people sadly. I liked Cassius but he needed to keep his mate in check.
It is controversial but I guess they ruled in favor of Cassius because under normal circumstances they obviously imagined WOLF wouldn't have been able to pull him down from the position he was in
@@therebel4332 Cassius is indeed a good kind man, but his supporters I really don't like them especially in Heat 1 when they had a go at John Anderson And I hate that ridiculous steel drum band they had, much preferred the event music
I would've thought the steel band playing would be off putting for every other contender that came up against Cassius and if the producers were in the same minds than that could be considered doing a MAJOR FRAUD on Gladiators!
Nicola Dale perhaps due to frustration of knowing they conceded many points on the night. Rhino the only one who never got involved which typifies the popularity of Rhino
Not sure why Saracen was uppity, but with Hunter he got owned by Dave on Swing Ball and wanted to make amends. Perhaps with Saracen he was unhappy at the way Dave kind of humiliated Cobra on Hang Tough?
Amazing performance from Dave!

I've never known Saracen and Hunter behave so badly. That's Wolf and Vulcan's department.

Hunter had lost his hair, his girlfriend and kept dislocating his shoulders so seemed a bit a grumpier than usual this season.
I used too watch this on a Saturday night even though I was very young
Dave walter 49 points.. surely the highest amount of points ever scored by a contestant in one show
One hell of a contender
Brilliant

How many more times is cassius’ family gonna complain?
What kind of remix version of "Bad Boys" is this at 19:35? I can't find it.
the bad boys inc duo
the onefrom the crap tv show cops
But in Cassius's defence there aren't many contenders who get double figures in Powerball against VULCAN.
What's with the reggae music during the events? They may as well play classical...
They're steel drums.
Supershow
where was rio in this episode?
that guantlet was fixed he never got past hunter legally
I can only think Hunter was disqualified for striking the contender too aggressively or on the head but I thought he was within the rules too.
What was it with Vogue and Louise. Every tme Louise came out on top
Lucky knickers
49 would have to be one of the highest ever scores in the domestic series (I know there were some higher scores in the Internationals)
On 2nd viewing I've changed my mind about Dave Walton being an average winner,, he was very good in fact, scored heavily and seemed to be like a horse idling in front on this particular eliminator as well, but once Cass went to his girth he sped up and bolted clear 🤣 some need to be challenged before producing their best I guess, whereas most buckle under pressure when it comes to the challenge.
@@therebel4332 I think Dave proved himself in The Quarter-Finals & The Semi-Finals as I thought he was against some tough competition in those episodes
I believe Roland Hill's score of 51 was the highest but that was over 6 events. So in the domestic series, 49 was the highest score over 5 events.
Hmmmm where was Rio this episode??
Cassius playing with his junk whilst talking to Ulrika. Bit creepy and weird.
Hung like a shire horse
Did Cassius use his feet on Wolf during Hang Tough. As Sarah Damm did the same against Lightning and was not DQed it begs the question whether using your feet is permitted.
The only rule about feet in Hang Tough is you're NOT allowed to Kick
I think they used their discretion to suit their own personal bias imo. They didn't like Cassius from the start so he got a lot of silly heat. I think his mate didn't help matters though to be fair, a loud mouth that seemed to hate white people sadly. I liked Cassius but he needed to keep his mate in check.

@@therebel4332 Cassius is indeed a good kind man, but his supporters I really don't like them especially in Heat 1 when they had a go at John Anderson
And I hate that ridiculous steel drum band they had, much preferred the event music
I have to say I found the steel band off putting when watching the events. Luckily we won't hear it again in the semi finals.
Tbf he was a great contender,, 30 plus points was fantastic scoring,, he just came up against a higher score which is typical lol.
Nicola, me too! Plus, his friend complained each time he was on, making him look bad.
I would've thought the steel band playing would be off putting for every other contender that came up against Cassius and if the producers were in the same minds than that could be considered doing a MAJOR FRAUD on Gladiators!
Yes I actually felt sorry for John Anderson when the friend did that.
Agreed. Sorta took away from the games. Swing Shot, for example has great music, and we missed that this week for a pretty average steel band
Falcon rip
You've got to love Sachs at 27:22 😂
Hunter trying to cheat again on swingshot by knocking balls off
36:41 if he wants a squeeze he can have a squeeze but.....get through what did hunter say inbetween?
Hunter said "If he wants a squeeze he can have a squeeze but in our minds he didn't get through!"

when me laway him Wolfman did gun man dufghrt
Looks like all that kfc really paid off for Dave !
And I bet the wrap party had plenty of KFC to go around.
49:45
Never known Saracen behave so badly. Even Hunter wasn't well behaved on Gauntlet.
Nicola Dale perhaps due to frustration of knowing they conceded many points on the night. Rhino the only one who never got involved which typifies the popularity of Rhino
Roid rage
Not sure why Saracen was uppity, but with Hunter he got owned by Dave on Swing Ball and wanted to make amends. Perhaps with Saracen he was unhappy at the way Dave kind of humiliated Cobra on Hang Tough?
guscott boring as ever few more episodes as fash is back thankfully
Dogfight is such a stupid game
and that game jousting on the mechanical bulls, was very stupid as well.
Glads are right, he never got through gauntlet.
I imagine Rebel was hard to hang around with. For an average Glad, she was incredibly delusional.
