The deep dive into Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog continues with episode 16 in which Deidre suddenly finds herself thrust into a position of power when King Conchobar is taken ill. Is there more to his malady than merely handling an accidentally tainted conch shell? Yes. Yes there is.
S3E14 - Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog - Battle of the Druids
Our deep dive into Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog continues with Battle of the Druids which features one of my very favourite things in all of entertainment, a guest turn from a classically trained British ham who absolutely understands the assignment. When Cathbad the druid’s old mentor Sithcheen rocks up unannounced everyone thinks he’s absolutely the bees knees but is there more going on than meets the eye? Aideen the fairy certainly thinks so.
S3E12 - Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog - Tyrune Returns
The deep dive into Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog continues with episode 13 Tyrune Returns. This story follows on immediately from the previous episode in which a very annoying Irish fella accidentally on purpose released a three headed dragon from a lake. With Tyrune on the rampage it’s a race against time to free the helpful dragon Pyre from his bondage so he can take on Tyrune in a show down that is absolutely not for the ages.
S7E9 - Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog: War of the Little People
The deep dive into Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog continues with episode 10, The War of the Little People. This episode is primed to please me because it shifts the focus onto Mider the dark elf, my absolute favourite character in the entire show. Have the script writers constructed a plot worthy of Ned Dennehy’s acting talents? Listen along to find out.
S3E5 - Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog: The Wolf of the Rocks
Episode 6 sees the established formula very much in place as Angus has to claim his magical armour from a bored Irish character actor dressed like a fool while everyone else is distracted by a low effort monster summoned by the dastardly Queen Maeve who has other things to worry about, namely the low quality of the entertainers at her court.
S3E1 - Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog: Legend of the Ancient Scroll
It’s time for a new season of Popular Antiquarian and this time our main focus is going to be Mystic Knights of Tir Na Nog, the weird Irish themed Power Rangers knock off from 1998. In this first episode we’re meeting the main cast and trying to decide which one is the most irritating (it’s Angus). Join HJDoom for another deep dive into something that absolutely does not deserve the care and attention being lavished on it.
