Was a pleasant surprise to see Richard pop on the screen tonight.

Unfortunately his robot seemed to have a few technical issues leading to it being knocked out in the first round.

Well done Richard! Looks like Martin G was on the team... If my memory serves me correctly this robot appeared on Robot Wars before? Or came to close to it?

JRG was on the team then

I was very loosely involved in Mechanoids, which was a lauable series which also involved robots. my contribution was mainly beer drinking and occasionally coming up with an idea or two. Whilst I didn't do anything on Draven, apart from driving it around chewing up washing machines during a beer fuelled science expo in Dublin, I have to say i have a lot of respect for the teams who build these things, they are increasibly powerful and complex machines. Very hard to understand the power and scale from the TV show.

All good fun.
