I believe they were sold to charity.
My best bet was that the production company gutted them for parts and that the parts ended up in some other animatronic creation for another TV show.
yeah there is still matilda running as the featherweight house robot but there is a mr psycho style house robot called major damage that runs as the heavyweight house robot and they did a have a growler style robot called gripper but the shell was recently sold and is to become a heavyweight.robots live uses a bot that has the same shape and body as dead metal but with pincers and a hammer that runs as a featherweight house robot

Hi Sean, Thanks for the mail. The honest answer is nobody really knows what happened to them, however I am led to believe that they are still at the BBC somewhere. That's what Chris Reynolds the creator thinks anyway.

I have heard rumors of it being cannibalized for special effects work, sold as scrap (a sad ending), sold at a charity event or just being mothballed. It has historical (and in some cases personal) value to many people worldwide, likely more-so than the other house robots. By any chance do you know what happened to it?
I'm now imagining an incredibly terrible horror movie where the house robots gain sentience and start killing people who wander into the BBC warehouse.
I think Shove also fits.
