...she was just the cutest sidekick on TV...
...green
just wasn't Pickle's colour...
...she wasn't afraid to call Treguard names...
...she doesn't have "Fully-qualified
to dress up as a whingeing robot" on her CV...
...Pickle looked like Mr Spock...
...she wore the trousers
in that castle. Pickle wore shorts...
...she never got Dunkley Wood and the Forest of Dun confused ("The Old Place"
is Dunkley Wood only, Pickle - hell, you're an elf, why do you need me to explain it?)...
...she could
fit into a bottle - now that's what I call a slim figure!...
...she wasn't dumb enough to wear shorts and an Elfin
T-Shirt in a castle in the North of England in the middle of Winter...
And the number one reason Majida was better
than Pickle is...
...Pickle said dungeoneers are "Strange". Majida called a dungeoneer a "Smart Bottom". No contest.
Now here's the counter-argument...
Pickle was better than Majida
because...
...he actually knew something about what he was
doing and where he was...
...he didn't call his boss names 'cos he knew how the audience just wanted Treguard to get
on with the show...
...red just wasn't Majida's colour...
...all things are relative but his accent was, by
degrees, less irritating...
...Majida will shout so...
...he was willing to cheat on the dungeoneer's behalf...
...he wasn't dumb enough to wear desert fatigues in a castle in the North of England in the middle of Winter...
...at
least he was aware that Dunkley Wood and the Dunwood existed...
...he didn't scream in terror the first time he saw
a dungeoneer appear out of nowhere...
And the number one reason Pickle was better than Majida is...
...Majida
called Pickle a "Nervous elf-type person with big ears," Pickle told the audience to "Bog off!" No contest. *
* I changed this one from "...he
had the courtesy to leave the series when the viewers got sick of him" because Tim Child has suggested
to me that David Learner may not have entirely been given a choice in the matter. I'm not sure I believe him, but
I imagine he'd know if anyone does.
