* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Series 1 has several examples of this:
** Treguard's dialogue -- outside of situation-specific hints -- usually consists of stock phrases which are repeated in every quest. Starting with Series 2, the production team gave Hugo Myatt much more leeway to ad-lib dialogue that got across the required information.
** None of the teams are given a specific goal for their quest, other than to get to the end of Level 3.
** After most of the dungeoneer deaths, Treguard says "Oh dear, what a pity, never mind". He only says his more well-known catchphrase of "Ooh, nasty!" once, after a dungeoneer is blown up in a bomb room.
** There's no visible main antagonist, with Mogdred being mentioned several times, but never actually being seen.
