Cancelling this show made no sense. It had so much potential,, seemed to be getting more popular, huge number of participants, cult following, and was just a great show in general. I still don't know why they cancelled it, or why they won't bring it back.
I put it down to a number of little things. For example, being moved from BBC2 to C5, which is a problem for anyone who doesn't have Sky/freeview. Being moved from prime-time time slot (6:30pm) on a Friday to Sunday mornings. The format; who's bright idea was it to put commercial breaks in?
Besides which, Craig Charles looked like he'd lost interest in the show, he really looked like he was phoning it in by the end. As for Jane Middlemiss, she didn't know what was going on half the time.
I don't think it's gonna work. The House Robots were sold to charity and the arena was sold to the Storm II team captain Ed Hoppitt, but it'll be a miracle if it comes back on, but don't stop trying!
If you want to bring back robot wars please google search "bring back robot wars", click the first result, and follow directions. Thank you for your support.
I aggree with cooltv4. The whole robot is a retarded piece of junk. The snapping weapon is crap, it won its heat because the were all judges decisions.
I would like to see an eposode with 8 robots. first it would be Chaos 2 vs tyrannabot. next Tut tut vs tornadeo. Then the Steel avenger vs probophobia. next the revolutionist vs gemini. the semi finals would be Chaos 2 vs the steel avenger. then tut tut vs the revolutionist. in the final round it would be Chaos 2 vs tut tut. that fight would too close to call, but I have to give the upper hand to chaos 2

I agree with you, but i must confess it's a nice piece of engineering anyway...
Renard380 3 years ago
It's a nice piece of engineering if you consider just not being caught but not doing much damage either as the point of the contest.
Not bashing it, just saying that some other robots should've bashed it :D
