Weekend Replay: UK Gladiators Eliminator
Season two of the UK’s Gladiators is underway, and it brings about this exciting Eliminator contest. I’ve included the description portion for folks outside the UK to see how they do it.

Looks like they just replaced the cotton reel with another travelator. Good call, methinks.
But why did they keep the monkey bars for the girls and the handbike for the men? Why not give them equal challenges?
I actually saw an episode of UK Gladiators on BBC America the other day. It’s just as exciting as the US version, even to go as far as exciting as the original. I’m glad that they’ve gotten a second season.
It’s certainly great we got rid of the cotton reels, but the floor travellator has been rather overhyped and is a bit rubbish really.
IAWTS. The floor travellator sucks.
/Could they go “American” and put a ball pit there?
@Anton: It’s always been like that on the UK version. Even the original series had the monkey bars for women and the handbike for men.
@DeVares: Yeah; I love this version. Personally, I prefer it to our AG remake. IMO, the Brits figured out how to keep the spirit of the original while making it modern.
@Nick: NOOOOO! I hated the ballpit in the original AG. Thought it was a bit of a clusterf*ck.
Where’d this video come from? Is there a way to watch season 2 if you’re in the US? Or do I just have to wait to see if BBC America ever airs it?
