Inter-Season Special: Famous For Retreating - Part 325 Dec 202000:20:55

Some  two-and-a-half years in the making, Famous For Retreating  is  the  first-ever audio play based in the universe of the Greater Game  of   Luck and Glory. Set approximately three years after the conclusion of    the TV series, the play adds substantial development to one character    who only got to appear in a few episodes, and also explores one of the    central characters, giving him a new origin, while explaining the    transitions that led to his emergence. Using themes and characters    devised by award-winning TV Producer Tim Child, Famous For Retreating   is a close study of some of the prominent personalities from the series    he created, attempting to flesh out their histories and to offer a  new   perspective on their motivations.

Inter-Season Special: Famous For Retreating - Part 218 Dec 202000:13:46

After her mission to procure witch amber from behind enemy lines goes awry, Heggarty is gravely injured. Her only hope is the witch queen Greystagg, but as Heggarty's injuries prefent her from using Greystagg's calling name, the queen who normally prides herself on her neutrality in the battle between The Powers That Be and The Opposition is forced to make an uneasy alliance with Treguard.

Inter-Season Special: Famous For Retreating - Part 111 Dec 202000:15:15

Links between the Twentieth Century and the era of the Dungeon  have been dormant for several years, but the civil war between ‘The  Powers-That-Be’ and ‘The Opposition’ continues. Caught between the two  forces in the conflict are the Grey Sisterhood, now resident in the new  colony of Ambrohame.

Desperate to renew her people’s dwindling powers, the Witch Queen  Greystagg sends an emissary, Heggatty, to seek out new sources of witch  amber. During her mission, Heggatty is attacked by the Opposition, and  needs Treguard and Stiletta to come to her aid.

Caught in a situation where combat is impossible, Treguard and  his mortal enemy, Lord Fear, must each battle with words to induce  terror in the other to decide the fate of the Grey Sisters… with the  balance of the entire war resting on the outcome.

Mid-Season Special: The Dunshelm Players - In Defence of Dan30 Oct 202000:28:31

We're taking a short break from the series in order to bring you this unofficial Knightmare audio play by The Dunshelm Players.
IN DEFENCE OF DAN

Dan Howell has been hunted down by the law-enforcers of Knightmare fandom and is put on trial for his smart-assery during the Geek Week  special. His hopes of continued freedom depend on a lawyer who is still  to sit her GCSEs, in legal battle with a rabid and fervent KM fanatic,  all overseen by a judge whose only legal qualifications are a swimming  certificate and a lengthy career watching ITV courtroom docudramas.

A somewhat belated. response to the
new episode of Knightmare made for YouTube’s ‘GeekWeek’, is a comedy sketch written and mixed by Amy Davies. For once, it does not feature any regular Knightmare characters, and has a few gentle digs at the outraged reaction of some of the fans to the team of YouTube stars who took part in the special. It features a Dunshelm Players debut for Lucy Davies.

Judge - Martin Odoni

Christmas Special 2023: The Dunshelm Players in Sidriss the Confused and the Philosopher's Sojourn29 Dec 202300:20:21

NOTICE: This is a work of parody, and does not reflect any kind of endorsement of JKR or her personal views. Trans rights are human rights.

Original release date: November 2011

Suffering from the stresses of the excessive workload that goes with being an editor, Sidriss the Confused decides she needs a holiday. But the job of editing her father’s latest novel cannot be left on hold, so before she can go, she has to find someone to fill in for her. As there are five candidates to choose from, Sidriss decides that she had best interview all of them.

Originally meant as the 2010 festive offering from the Players, but lengthily delayed due to ongoing technical problems, Sojourn is the fourth instalment of the sketch-series in the world of Harry Potter authorship. The Collins siblings return as Confuser and Confused, but the latest of Sidriss’ adventures sees other characters entering proceedings, including Dunshelm Players’ debuts for Mildread the Witch, Motley the Jester, Gretel the Dungeon Maid, and Ridolfo the Troubadour.

Sidriss the Confused ………………………………………. Rosey Collins Hordriss the Confuser/Ridolfo the Troubadour …… Jake Collins Motley the Jester …………………………………………….. Ricky Temple Gretel the Maid/Mildread the Witch ……………. Helen Becconsall Sir Hugh de Wittless ………………………………………… Martin Odoni

Running time approx 18 minutes. Script written by Martin Odoni. Music (‘Bumbly March‘) composed by Kevin McLeod of Incompetech.com. Sound effects provided by The Free Sound Project and Soundrangers. Production mixed and edited by Andrew Marshall and Martin Odoni. Harry Potter is (c) of JK Rowling.

Episode air date: 9th November 1990

Team 5: Vicky, Sarah, Susanna and Katrina from Wymondham.

Team 6: Dickon, Dominic, Tim and Praveen from Torquay

Today's episode is very much a game of two halves. We go from quite possibly one of the most entertainingly bad teams of series 4 to one of the greatest quests of the entire show! Along the way we talk about the Mandela effect in relation to a certain moment with a certain Dungeoneer, Martin H is tickled by the idea of Pickle's parrot, and we experience some pretty severe Déjà vu thanks to some Door Monster questions.

Knightmare Memories - Listener's Choice Award22 Sep 202300:24:35

Hi Listeners of Illusion!

Martin Odoni was sadly suffering from Covid when it came time to record this episode, so I'm afraid you'll have to put up with Martin Harder on his own.

We had so many great submissions to our competition that we decided to give out a secondary prize - our very own Listeners' Choice Award.

Presented here in this podcast are the seven entries we have chosen to be eligible for the main prize. We'll be starting a poll where you will have the chance to vote for your favourite memories. the winner of this poll will receive a separate prize of either a t-shirt or mug with their choice of design from our Redbubble store. This prize is completely separate from the main prize shown in the main competition post, and the poll will have no influence on the main competition (which is essentially a prize draw, where a winner will be chosen at random).

We're not analysing the entries here or giving much feedback or opinions, as we'll be doing so on a future podcast when Mr. Odoni is able to join in.We hope you enjoy listening to these entries as much as we did. Please remember that it's okay to disagree with the opinions of others, as long as everybody remains civil :)

Vote for your favourite in our poll here
