I was going to write Peggy (USA) vs. Jackie (UK) in IG2, which was for me the most awesome, heartstopping Eliminator of all time - but then I re-read the title so from the UK domestic series I would pick...
The 1995 final - Mandy vs. Janet - huge tension throughout and a fantastic neck and neck finish - it didn't come any more dramatic than that in the women's Elimators. For the men I thought the 1996 final between Mark and Buster was great - Mark albsolutely annihilated the course!
I also thought Kerry Shacklock vs. Julie Hall in Series 6 and Mark Whitehouse v. Colm Curran in Series 7 were great Eliminators with a thrilling finish.
Ideal Layout for me:
Hurdles
Up and over Cargo net
Rope
Handladder/bike
Rolling beams
Cargo net
Zip Line
Balance Beam
Travelator
Paper burst (with holes - easier to see who wins in a close situation)
