Whoever wrote this thought it was necessary to have like three ripping solos in a 3 minute song and for that I salute them

I Watched the first episode on BBC One last night. As someone who grew up watching the original show I really enjoyed it, Brad and Barney Walsh did a great job hosting and Guy Mowbray was an excellent choice to commentate. i also loved that they brought the theme tune back, and it was nice that the show stayed true to what made the original 90s show so good. A Saturday night institution reborn for a new generation with a bang. Great Job Hungry Bear and BBC. 9/10

Brilliant memories of days gone by. Saturday nights in front of the TV with a bag of chips as a treat. Blind Date and Casualty to follow. Seems like only yesterday! Miss the 90s

This is the best TV theme music of all time. If you disagree you’re wrong. Simple as that.

Best saturday night tv show ever. No contest. This was pure raw entertainment at it's peak.

This is cultural heritage. Hang it in the Louvre.

Who is ready to feel the power again? It's back, this Saturday

Best TV theme tune ever.

Brings back so many great memories loved the 90s

Probably one of my favourites from the 90's. Saturday TV really was great, I miss it.

The nostalgia just kicked off

Is it wrong that I cried watching reruns of this epic show?? I'm 34... kids of my own.. I miss my family and those carefree Saturday nights in the 1990s ... There's something intangible about the nostalgia of this... Blessings

90s TV was absolutely amazing 👏 Love Gladiators best show on TV 📺

Jet from Gladiators to host a millennium barn dance at Yeovil aerodrome. It must not, repeat NOT turn into an all night rave.

I remember in 1993 Warrior and Zodiac came to my town to sign some autographs and I was beyond excited. Warrior was absolutely huge in real life. They were both wonderful with the crowds of kids! What a show!

Kids from today will never understand how amazing the 90s truly were! Back when there was no internet/social media we had the likes of Gladiators & Baywatch to keep us happy lol a truly amazing time to have experienced ❤️❤️

Man this brings back memories when I was a kid loved this show

Arguably the best theme song from the 90s

2022 almost in 2023 and this is still fucking banging hard. 90s were fucking amazing! THE WOLFMAN! SHADOW! JET! LIGHTNING!

I really wish itv would re-run the Gladiators from the very beginning 😮 it would really liven up Saturday night tv once and for all!! Nice bit of nostalgia for us old farts.

Currently playing this to my 11 day old boy and he's loving it

Honestly, this brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it, not just because of the unbelievable nostalgia it brings back, not just because of the genuine heart and soul of the lyrics and melody, but because I know that no theme of any reboot will ever be able to make me feel the same way.

It was this show that encouraged me to train and be in good shape! I was obsessed as a child 😂

This song epic not only is it symbolic of the gladiators but can be applied to challenges we face in life

Jet and Lightning😍😍😍

Even though I was born at the turn of the millennium, Gladiators is a very core memory of mine. The Challenge channel as a whole is also a core memory

In the words of the Legend John Anderson "Contenders Readdddddy, Gladiators Readdddy, 3, 2, 1

Luis Harlow, a police constable from Bristol, Willie Alexander, a movie star from London, Carla Faire, a film director from Liverpool, Dallas Young, a firefighter from Leicester, Jackson Bartholomew, a rugby player from Exter and Victoria Lerch, a crane operator from York tonight face the ultimate challenge: the might of the Gladiators! Jet, Warrior, Lightning, Shadow, Cobra, Panther, Wolf, Flame, Hawk, Phoenix, Saracen and Scorpio! Coming to you from the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham, here are the presenters of Gladiators: John Fashanu and Ulrika Jonsson!

Coming back 2023 baby! AWOOOGA

the show Gladiators brings back lots of memories you could not even get away from the wolfman. John Anderson the (TV personality) always had a hard time with the wolf

We have a start date for the new series! 13th January 2024. CAN'T WAIT!!

One word, one name................. WOLF 😁 #LEGEND

My wife and I had this as the first dance at our wedding. There wasn't a dry eye in the house.

Love how they've brought it back. But it's great to bring back that 90s nostalgia.

Saturday Jan 13th 2024. Gladiators returns to British TV. Here’s to hoping it can live up to the hype!

As a kid I always wanted to do the final assault course thing! Looked so epic n easy for my youthfull naive self!

They don’t make em like this anymore, great tune.

Every 90's kid in the UK and Ireland lived for this.

THIS MUSIC IS BURNT ON MY BRAIN AND IN MY SOUL.

Glad it's coming back, in 2023 I was born after the original run of the 90s in 99 so have experienced it by old episodes and the failed reboot of late 2000s hope it is successful

This is one of the many sounds of the 90s what a era

Best show of the 90s! Jet & Scorpio my all time favourites

Ah man. 90s was the pinicle of TV shows. How far we've strayed from true entertainment.

Who’s watching the comeback tonight on BBC1? 🥰

I didn’t think they could recreate it but they have actually done a good job and respected the original. Favourite gladiators so far Giant, Apollo, Diamond and Fire.

Saturday Night ✅ Wolf ✅ Guitar Solo x 3 ✅ COWBELL, WHY THE HELL NOT! ✅

Before becoming a referee on Gladiators John Anderson worked for my local council and my dad used to work with him. Which dad used to remind me of EVERY Saturday Night when I was watching Gladiators. Also I was a huge fan of the Gladiators as a child (5/6 years old) and my sister worked in Birmingham a lot at the time. She came home one night to tell me that the ENTIRE cast of Gladiators were eating in the hotel that she had been staying in for the week. Excited, I ask (bear in mind I'm a little kid at the time) 'did you get an autograph for me?!' because, why else would my sister tell me right? 'oh no. I didn't want to disturb them' was her reply - to her 5 year old brother, who was a huge Gladiators fan and she was well aware of that! I understand that you didn't want to disturb them sis, but WHY then tell me about it??

Catchphrase, Baywatch, Gladiators, blind date with Cilla n some Noels house party sometimes - Kaboom!

Panther and Cobra came to my school. Panther sat in my Chemistry lesson...it was an all-boys grammar school, so to say she was a distraction is playing it down. 😂

This tune rocks….I hope they bring it back for the new series! 😂😎🤩

They don't make tv theme tunes like this anymore...

I loved this growing up.

This song for a saturday night tv show has no right being as awesome as it is.

Loved this show as a kid! So happy it is coming back. Will miss the original Glads though!

Feeling down at work? Listen to this and suddenly everything gets done in montage. LMAO now I'm imagining the Gladiators all participating in mundane work tasks!

These are coming back soon to inspire us to be strong again 🙏 Jet was my favourite

Really hope they use this theme for 2024 bbc one return 🙏

Absolute childhood here!

Best show of the 90s

Not herd the whole thing before awesome

Remember sitting down as young lad, always wanting to have a go at swingshot, that game looked too fun! Always started with atmosphere too and who could forget duel......shadow used to beat the living lights into contestants......those were the days followed by Mr blobby on Noels House party why has this gone!

Such a great show jet and lightening are my faves

If your comment doesn't include the word "Saturday", then you need to post again.

Still listening in year 2022 🕺🏽

F#*k me, the guitarist earnt his wage! 😆🤣😆

I think they also used this theme for the two series of "International Gladiators". Makes sense considering those were also done in Birmingham.

Don't miss much from my childhood but I miss those Saturday nights.

2020 nostalgia life was simple back then 😢😢😢😢😢 miss those days 2020 was child hood memories

All kinds of EPIC!

Great to see the BBC are keeping it for the new series going by the teaser!

This song makes me wanna make the most awesome training montage. A proper 90's montage 😂

Need to bring this show back !! This song is so American

Im 27 born 1995 I used to get the theme tune mixed up with the power rangers theme tune.

I think, if my memory serves me right was the band that performed this great song called STORM? Cant wait for the new series to air on the BBC!!!

The only line I remember is 'deep down in your soul!

This song used to make me think I could be a contender. These days I just answer a flat no to all the questions in the lyrics.

Contenders ready! 3-2-1!

4 people disliked this has no childhood!

No crying with nostalgia here! It's time for a jog/heart attack. Then pump some iron LET'S GOOOOOOOO!

This is 90s gold

LYRICS: Do you feel the power of the Gladiators? Can you face the challenge of the champions? Do you have the courage of a hero? Do you have the will and the skill? Do you have the speed, the strength, the heart to be a winner? It's not for beginners. Deep down in your soul. Are you a Gladiator? Gotta move like a streetwise fighter. Gotta face the fire of the tiger. Gotta give your all to win. Ready or not, let the challenge begin. Can you match the strength of the Gladiators? Do you have the fire within you? Do you have the heart of a lion? Do you have the power in your soul? Now it's time to race, it's face-to-face, get on the track now. There's no turning back now. Your future's on the line. Are you a Gladiator? Gotta move with lightning speed. Feel the strength for what you need. Gotta take it on the chin. Gotta love it, love to fight and win. Do you feel the power of the Gladiators? Can you face the challenge of the champions? Show the stuff you're made of. Can you seal the fate of the Gladiators? Can you challenge the Gladiators? Will you take on the Gladiators? Will you be the new champion? The Gladiators

What a tune!

Contenders, ready? Gladiators, ready?!?

Nostalgia 😁

this song just screams 90s i miss 90s saturday night tv
