Looks like UK TV channel Challenge is going to be showing episodes of Robot Wars starting from May 3rd. No idea what series it will be though from the looks of it they will be showing some of the older ones (i.e. Series 2). —StalwartUK 14:42, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
- If someone could record these and try and upload them to YouTube, or just get higher quality screenshots than we have at the Moment, that would be great. Jimlaad43(talk) 16:41, April 1, 2014 (UTC)
- I was at a live event. It was comfirmed that Challenge will be broadcasting Series 2.--SpaceManiac888 (talk) 09:40, April 2, 2014 (UTC)
Challenge have put this trailer up on their YouTube: [1] --StalwartUK 03:17, May 1, 2014 (UTC)
- Cool. Anyone going to record it for screenshots? I'm going to, but I won't be seeing them/have access for just over 2 weeks. Jimlaad43(talk) 13:24, May 2, 2014 (UTC)
For some reason, Challenge, currently showing Series 7, have skipped Heat M (Panic Attack's heat) and gone straight from Heat L (Behemoth's) to Heat N (Spawn Again's). They may well have just switched them around for whatever reason, but we'll see what we get tomorrow. (I might be out, so if someone else could check) Hogwild94 (talk) 18:27, March 8, 2016 (UTC)
- They moved on to Heat O today. Will keep eye to see if Heat M gets shown. The schedule suggests they are finishing Series 7 with a double bill next Friday. Hogwild94 (talk) 21:13, March 9, 2016 (UTC)
- I think I know what the problem is, Challenge started repeating Series 7 on February 19th which was a Friday so that's 1 episode out of 22 but Challenge only shows the repeats Monday to Friday so maybe that is going to be the case, if not then there must be some kind of superstition associated with Heat M being the 13th Heat.--Nononsensecapeesh (talk) 22:21, March 9, 2016 (UTC)
Good News! I found some other broadcast times, put them on series record and I HAVE GOT HEAT M! So the complete series will be uploaded next weekend. Jimlaad43(talk) 20:59, March 12, 2016 (UTC)
I think Heat M was not on because Channel 5 messed up the times and episodes , they but on random times like on a Saturday Morning to Sundays night and no one knew when they were on, probably why episodes changed as also the Channel 5 producer or something didn't like Robot Wars so he didn't care for it.

- I'm talking about the current run of shows on Challenge. Jimlaad43(talk) 21:18, March 12, 2016 (UTC)
Yes i know , but i was saying that if that was the original broadcasting order challenge might have done the same order as Channel 5 did. Did you also notice sky 2 stop the 6th wars half way in to it. About 7 episodes into it and finished in mid week. Dylanr21 (talk) 21:24, March 12, 2016 (UTC)
Heat M has finally been shown today. Hogwild94 (talk) 18:27, March 14, 2016 (UTC)
- I would likely suspect that the episode was moved to being placed between the semi-finals instead of being heat 13 due to being to do with luck and the whatnot. The other theories I had were about Panic Attack falling (it's a former champion) and the featherweight championship, in which Challenge saw the entry, I guess? --WolfwingandSlaveLeia (talk) 16:25, March 15, 2016 (UTC)
Challenge is going back to Series 5 next Thursday. Hogwild94 (talk) 21:28, March 23, 2016 (UTC)
From tomorrow Series 5 is on 6pm Challenge as said , Sky 2 are also showing the sixth wars on at 12pm and 5pm as, and if that`s not enough H2 are showing the 3rd wars again at 5pm! Good week for Robot Wars! Dylanr21 (talk) 10:24, April 3, 2016 (UTC)
I think sky 2 is showing the 7th wars as it has the info as challenge did for it Dylanr21 (talk) 16:30, April 29, 2016 (UTC)
I was just looking at the TV Guide on Challenge's website as I'm trying to figure out what series they're starting to show tomorrow evening (it doesn't say "The Fifth Wars" any more) and noticed that it seems to be the highest rated show on their station; 8.7! Comparatively, Fifteen to One is 6.5, The Chase is 6.1 and Pointless is 5.8. Personally I'm really hoping they air Series 3 again- I'm pining for a HQ version to record, as I still only had VHS back in 2008 or so when I last saw them air it, and I didn't have H2. Probably a long shot, but I can only hope and pray. Well, I could buy Challenge and force them to air it, I suppose.RavenclawDBS (MCKA DevilboyScooby) 15:19, August 1, 2016 (UTC)
