Adjustments and Changes

The show featured robot competitors familiar to fans of Robot Wars, such as Rosie The Riveter and Revolutionist, but the robot operators were all kids associated with the teams.

To suit the younger audience, a few adjustments and changes were made to the arena and House Robots.

• All flame hazards, including the flame pit, fire jets and Sgt Bash's flamethrower, were disabled.
• Sir Killalot was renamed "Sir K", a name he was commonly referred to in the official UK Robot Wars Magazine. Interestingly, Dead Metal was allowed to keep his name untouched.
• The Pit Release Bumper was moved further down the arena wall, so it was not as close to the Pit of Oblivion.
