I could kinda take it or leave it, but I watched the interviews earlier and now I'm a bit more excited.

I don't know how much I can say about this, but I do understand that the British people are getting shafted so I'll just say this.

There are some sites I know of that are pretty reliable about uploading videos of TV shows. Finding them via Google is easier than you think.  Legit ones don't make you download anything, so ignore the ones that tell you you need a special plugin or video player.

If you have the ability to watch it on TV or on a legitimate site, please do so.  We want this to make as much money as possible.

Does ABC have some kind of free online catchup service? If so it'd be pretty easy to watch on that via proxy.

Okay, so some more new info.

Can any of the British roboteers confirm whether this is the new Team Big Brother robot or not?


Also I finally know what that damn crate says. It was Sweet Revenge, and if it is what I think it is, it was a 4WD bar spinner.

That's one of the few things that I haven't seen, so I can neither confirm nor deny.

I don't think any of us on GTM have actually seen Ian's robot but Jarvis may be able to confirm in some sense as he's seen the drive pods.

You mean the 4WD one with red tires? Considering its proximity to the crate and its weapon bar (which looks like a candy cane) I'd be willing to bet that's what it is.

Yeah. I'm surprised how many bots are actually there. Are there still bots that are a mystery besides the Flipper?

Here's a picture that Charles drew of all the robots he saw at BB.  Truly, he's the DaVinci of our time
