Wow I never knew about this until just know, I remember watching Robot Wars on TV when I was in Primary School.

good to see that some of the old robots are still fighting today.

[Calvertfilm]

@seanMmaguire1 Yeah, they have regular events each year. Just internet search 'Roaming Robots' and you might find an event near you next year.

@Calvertfilm noticed someone said something about petitioning to get these events televised, is that true?

[Calvertfilm]

@seanMmaguire1 I don't know. There can been lots of talk about things like this but I think it i more people just wishing it was back. Perhaps someone else may know if there is a petition?

@Calvertfilm I was at the 15:30 show and they weren't there then. It's a shame - I'd have loved to see them!

[Calvertfilm]

@Andrew120392 They were next to the central seating stand.

Where were the ones on static display? I was at this event but didn't see any of them!
