Robot Wars Extreme

Robot Wars Extreme was a series of special episodes of the television game show Robot Wars. The show ran for two series and was broadcast on BBC2 on Friday evenings from 2001 until 2003, between series of the main show.

Robot Wars extreme was not a single championship like the main series of the show but featured smaller tournaments and individual battles, which usually had a special theme such as weapon types or roboteers' backgrounds. It featured many robots from the main series but also included new robots from the UK and many robots that had appeared on Robot Wars series from around the world.

The show had the same presenters as the main series - Craig Charles, Philippa Forrester and Julia Reed. Charles hosted both series of the show with Reed co-presenting the first series and Forrester co-presenting the second series, having been unavailable for the first series due to pregnancy. Jonathan Pearce provided the commentary throughout the series.
