Campaign: Takeshi 2013
We talked about it, and here it is! The start of a big campaign (hopefully) to get a new series of Takeshi on Challenge - by its tenth anniversary in 2012.
There's a petition:
http://www.gopetition.com/online/34344.html
Please sign (even if you're not in the UK/can't watch Challenge, as I'd upload videos, obviously)!
I've also made a Facebook group for it. So, if you have an account, please join that too (as members can could as petitioners):
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=362759912106
I've revised the planned possible Series 5. Here it is, the best I could work it:
Quote: Episode 1 (Reunion/Best Of) (Japanese Episode 101)
After no new episode for so many years, Takeshi and Tani decide to meet up to reminisce, and try to forget their differences. However, it goes wrong...
Highlights of:
Skipping Stones
Blueberry Hill
High Rollers
Roller Derby
Wipe Out
Episode 2 (Unseen Games)
Animuddle (J. Ep 48 – Used for UK Series 2 Ep 22)
Slipped Disks (J. Ep 87 – Used for UK Series 1 Ep 4)
Show of Hands (J. Ep 67 – Used for UK Series 3 Ep 1 / Series 2 Ep 31)
Skittles (J. Ep 81 – Used for UK Series 4 Ep 12 / Series 2 Ep 72)
Quake (J. Ep 68 – Used for UK Series 4 Ep 6 / Series 2 Ep 66)

Great Wall (J. Ep 71 – Used for UK Series 3 Ep 3 / Series 2 Ep 33)
Slipped Disks (J. Ep 71 – Used for UK Series 3 Ep 3 / Series 2 Ep 33)

Rope (J. Ep 2 – Used for UK Series 3 Ep 7 / Series 2 Ep 37)
Roller Derby (J. Ep 54 – Used for UK Series 2 Ep 25)

Episode 4 (Unseen Games: Specials)
Fortress (J. Ep 56 – Used for UK Series 2 Ep 26)
Slipped Disks (J. Ep 42 – Used for UK Series 2 Ep 18)
Honeycomb Maze (J. Ep 42 – Used for UK Series 2 Ep 18)
Uphill Garden (J. Ep 12 – Used for UK Series 1 Ep 32)

Karaoke (J. Ep 95 – Used for UK Series 1 Ep 8)
Quake (J. Ep 78 – Used for UK Series 4 Ep 22 / Series 2 Ep 82)
Final Fall (J. Ep 113 – Used for UK Series 1 Ep 18)
Episode 5 (Unseen Games: Specials Special!)
Bite the Bun (J. Ep 104 – Used for UK Series 1 Ep 11)
Samurai Back (J. Ep 131 – Used for UK Hour-Long Special 9 / Series 2 Ep 91)
Midoriyama Marathon (J. Ep 131 – Used for UK Hour-Long Special 9 / Series 2 Ep 91)
Wipe Out (J. Ep 133 – Used for UK Series 4 Ep 20 / Series 2 Ep 80)
Quake (J. Ep 62 – Used for UK Hour-Long Special 1 / Series 2 Ep 83)
Bridge Ball (J. Ep 130 – Used for UK Hour-Long Special 4 / Series 2 Ep 86)
Shoot 'N' Loot (J. Ep 133 – Used for UK Series 4 Ep 20 / Series 2 Ep 80)
Episode 6 (100 Best Moments)
100 Best Moments - Part 1 (J. Ep 128)
Episode 7 (100 Best Moments)
100 Best Moments - Part 2 (J. Ep 129)
Episodes 2 - 5 would be done in the same way as the Best Ofs: Starting with Craig saying "In usual episodes.... etc etc etc... But this is an unseen special. All the games that we've never had time to show you before", and ending with the Flashback.
Final Fall is in episode 4 as a filler. It probably wouldn't be needed, as the 7 other games might last long enough.
Family Bite the Bun is in the 'Specials Special' as a filler too, again it might not be needed.
As you can see, I've listed exactly where all the clips come from, so this list could just be sent off to Challenge for them to pass onto the editors, so they won't have any work to do in searching through the footage. Plus point Also, now there's no way they can say that "only talking was cut out".
I need to put all this on the front page of the site. Not got time now, but hopefully I can get it all up tomorrow and we'll start getting signatures/members... I hope!
I expect this is probably going to end up fizzling out to nothing, and ending up with virtually no supporters. But I hope not. Its finally time to show Challenge that it's worth them making new episodes
This is stage one anyway. Maybe next steps include trying to write to Craig?

Done and done.
And I would definitely write to Craig. If he wants to do the voice over for the new episodes, Challenge can't really say no to our petition.

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
Thank you very much to those who have signed/joined
Let's hope we get a lot more... If not this is going to fail a bit!
When we've got more signatures/members I'll see about writing to Craig. It'll probably take 3 years to get a reply again though I think I'll try him at somewhere other than Coronation Street!!

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
I think that people are okay for the first day, but we definitely need more people. Maybe you make a YouTube video with a few scenes from Takeshi's Castle and the link to this petition.

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
Sonic has signed now (thank you!), and one other person (thank you too if you're looking!).
I don't know if I'll have time to make a video this week, but I definitely will do it.
I've put a little something on the homepage of the Takeshi site now too:
http://www.keshiheads.co.uk/homepage.html
No one can miss that now

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
649 people have visited the Takeshi site homepage since I put the flashy ad thing up yesterday. One person signed the petition from all of those.
You'd think more than one person would take 30 seconds to try and get new episodes

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
It's really a shame that people don't sign it, they can't loose anything. Maybe we can find other ways to promote this petition.

Re: Campaign: Takeshi 2012
Right, I managed to make a video this afternoon. Nothing amazing, as I had to make it quite quickly. Well, quickly compared to how long it takes me to do most videos
Here's hoping it works and get us some more signatures!
