Robot Wars - Season 2

Season 2

Each heat begins with two group battles, as the four top teams go into a mini-league. Points are awarded to competitors based on control, damage and aggression, with maximum points awarded to competitors who incapacitate their adversary. The battles are all overseen by our judges, Professor Noel Sharkey, Professor Sethu Vijayakumar and Dr Lucy Rogers.

During their fights teams must try to dodge the arena hazards - The Pit, The Spikes, The Flipper and Fire. They also have the four House Robots to deal with: Matilda, Dead Metal, Sir Killalot and Shunt.

This series there's a menacing new twist. Hitting the Arena Tyre no longer automatically lowers The Pit. It can also activate a mode called Rogue House Robot. This releases a House Robot to attack the competitors for a period of ten seconds, anywhere in the arena.

Robot Wars - Season 3

Season 3

Dara Ó Briain and Angela Scanlon are back with the most thrilling series of Robot Wars yet, along with unforgettable commentary from the legendary Jonathan Pearce.

The new series features an all-new competition format, that includes Robot Redemption, and the biggest battle in Robot Wars History, the Ten Robot Rumble…a ten robot, no time limit, last robot standing, fight to the death, to determine who takes the wildcard and final spot in the Grand Final.

This series has 30 ferocious fighting robots, with a few old favourites alongside some new and amazing machines, built by incredible roboteers, fighting in the purpose-built bullet-proof Robot Wars arena in Glasgow. The arena is even more dangerous this series, with the all new hazards The Fog Of War being added to the Dial Of Doom, causing chaos by filling the arena with a dense fog. As the robots are covered in this thick mist they are vulnerable to not only attacks from their opponents, but from our deadly house robots Dead Metal, Matilda, Shunt, and Sir Killalot.

The first five episodes are heats, with each episode featuring six teams, beginning with two fierce group robot battles, with the two winners automatically making it through to the semi-finals. The four losing robots have a final chance to redeem themselves in the Robot Redemption Knockouts in order to secure their place in the Semi-Finals.

The winning robots make it through to the heat final to determine who moves straight onto the Grand Final, with the runner up qualifying automatically for the ten robot rumble, and the remaining robots battling it out for third place and one of the remaining spots in the rumble.

The Grand Final features the heat winners of the previous five episodes - alongside the winner of the ten robot rumble - returning to battle for the coveted Robot Wars trophy. But who will be crowned Robot Wars Champion?

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.

The Handmaid's Tale is the story of life in the dystopia of Gilead, a totalitarian society in what was formerly the United States. Facing environmental disasters and a plunging birthrate, Gilead is ruled by a twisted fundamentalism in its militarized ‘return to traditional values'. As one of the few remaining fertile women, Offred is a Handmaid in the Commander's household, one of the caste of women forced into sexual servitude as a last desperate attempt to repopulate the world. In this terrifying society, Offred must navigate between Commanders, their cruel Wives, domestic Marthas, and her fellow Handmaids – where anyone could be a spy for Gilead – all with one goal: to survive and find the daughter that was taken from her.
