I actually meant the Thai/Indonesian/Vietnamese/etc. modern adaptations. I guess I was a bit ambiguous there. I'm not really interested in other versions of classic Takeshi's Castle. Certainly not MXC, ugh. I like what I watched of the unedited episodes but I know Craig Charles' version will almost be my favourite because I enjoy the non-stop format more.



Oh, OK. I like the Thai remake, but it's a bit too long in it's original form.

The UK edit is what got me into the original Japanese version (I live in the US and MXC got me interested in the show proper,) but I can't watch the UK edit anymore as I realize that it's butchered beyond belief.

It's a variety show first, not a game show. The UK edit (and by extension MXC) make it that way.

When I said "classic Takeshi's Castle" I meant the original Japanese show, but by the original Japanese show I don't mean the uncut original, but the UK edit. emoticon

While I can't speak for everyone as I'm new here, I imagine that most users on a board like this will prefer and think of the UK edit when they think of Takeshi's Castle. After all, the site is called "Keshi Heads" which is of course a term coined by Craig Charles. The original original show had more of a narrative, but it doesn't need one. That's why I like the idea of editing the newer international versions into a UK format.

I guess I'm spoiled on unedited original episodes.

If you like, in the meantime you can upload them to my server. I'm going to PM you a link and password. It's pretty straightforward from there.

Re: Project Drive


I'm gonna try to voice-over all available videos of the very first TCIndonesia episode tomorrow. Any suggestions/ideas before my trial?

I'd have suggested using Craig Charles as an inspiration, but since you're American you'd probably have to look up all of the British slang and idioms he uses. emoticon

It'd probably be best to simply be yourself and speak naturally, but hell, I've never done this stuff so take it all with a pinch of salt.

Re: Project Drive


Ha yeah. Ironically, everyone says I talk a bit like a British person (since I started reading on here, I suppose!), though there are still definitely some things I'm still not sure on!

Yeah, I'll be myself (sad) and we'll see how that turns-out. I can at times be decently witty off-camera, but when you're shining a bright light at me trying to get me to talk to an audience.. emoticon

Re: Project Drive


I've done the first few clips (and actually had a good time talking), but I sound so bland AND annoying that it'll probably be hard to take. Still, I'll try a couple of episodes because sometimes you just have to find the right groove (and for a professional-commentator Craig wasn't amazing (still far better than me but.. emoticon) in his first few episodes anyway!).

The worst is the two-minute-long intro in episode 1 - I just decided to let that play without talking over it, but it seems a bit weird emoticon

Did you stand up while doing it? Apparently thanks what they got Craig to do and he got more into it emoticon
