I'm thinking there should be a page on the deep voiced Robot Wars announcer. I plan on using some of his famous introductions of Craig Charles, so can people please list some of them here? Thanks. TG (t c) 06:39, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
Pop quiz; who actually knows what his name is? RA2; (My Talk) 07:58, May 23, 2010 (UTC) It's Stuart Mcdonald.
- I know someone found it out, I just can't remember what it is. Helloher (Death is not my phone number) 08:17, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
- According to a comment on the "Robot Wars - The First Great War - Part 1" video on YouTube it was the producer, Stuart Mcdonald. Or at least from series 1-3, I presume it was him in series 4 and from Extreme 1 onwards? He was also the producer of the new series of "Gladiators" and "Are you smarter than a 10 year old?"
Please add the German versions. Also is that all Volker Wolf says, or is there something else before at the start like "Ladies and Gentlemen" in the English shows. StalwartUK 18:13, August 1, 2013 (UTC)
- That is all he says. No 'ladies and gentlemen' or anything at the start. If I'm adding it in German, then how should I structure it? Maybe put it in German, then have the English version in brackets? Christophee (talk) 18:27, August 1, 2013 (UTC)
- By the way, Dutch Robot Wars didn't have an announcer, so there are no introductions in Dutch to worry about. Christophee (talk) 21:52, August 1, 2013 (UTC)
