Robot Wars

The story behind the making of the first season of Robot Wars - six weeks to design and build the house robots and scrap metal sets.

The Beginning - Background information on the start of the series itself. Interviews - Interviews of the house robot's "owners"/maintainers. We also get to look at the internals of the house robots as they explain how they operate. A Basic Robot Chassis - Chris Reynolds of BBC Visual Effects shows us a basic skid-steer robot chassis and explains how it works. New House Robots - Special previews of the first two new House Robots, which included concept drawings and an interview with Chris Reynolds.

After the main competition of the Second Wars, a special episode gives robots the chance to settle old scores and also allows robots that did not feature in the main series a chance to battle in the arena. Judgement Day - Two separate vengeance battles, both involving Mortis. It took on Cassius and later Napalm to settle a grudge in each of the first two wars.
