I enjoyed that episode, but the YouTube clip was more excitement in one clip than the entire BBC episode. Not sure what differs in the rules, but the BBC should change them to suit!
In related news, I spent a few hours with Noel Sharkey recently. Properly nice guy ____________________ I am a bellend, I am a man of constant sorrow, I am a gummy bear, I am a rock. |

Nutz getting tossed out of the arena was oh so satisfying, I know they did that on purpose Jellyfish, err yeah, shame they got back in after the 25k robot broke
Battlebots seems more developed, but I can't take the American presentation. |

I love bots like Jellyfish and Gabriel. Sure, they're daft, and real competitors should be able to rek them in seconds. So... do it then. What are you waiting for? Hey... hey, I'm still standing. Hey...

10 mins in and nothing has happened yet introducing the teams takes 5 minutes each. Bet this is going to adverts before the bloody fight even starts too. |

Poor Behemoth. Eighteen years and can't catch a break. That grab type weapon they had was utterly useless, they were beaten by some children younger than their robot. Twice.
I hope Razor comes back this series and actually gets a chance to put holes in stuff this time ____________________ Yamaha FZ6 S2 |

I would have too. Quite apart from the daft team decision to switch to the agricultural implement, the judges' bias towards the plucky kids was pretty cringe inducing in its pandering.
The Kiddie Kart didn't even have a weapon, and so shouldn't have been in the competition in the first place (yeah, rules and that). It did take some impressive hits, but by that token you could field a Big Trak covered in breeze blocks set to drive straight forward and get the same amount of credit.
Being rekt so hard that their disabled carcase took out the arena wall should have resulted in a straight loss. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.
