The competition in the final heat is fierce with Thor, Coyote, Expulsion, Hobgoblin, Push to Exit and Magnetar all battling it out in the bulletproof arena.

Six more teams compete in the fourth heat, as robots Iron-Awe 6, the Kegs, Tauron, Nuts 2, Concussion and Androne 4000 battle through a series of group battles and knock-out rounds.

Six more robots compete in the second heat, with last year's champion Carbide returning to face brand new challengers Eruption, Aftershock, Crackers N Smash, Gabriel 2 and Big Nipper. Dara Ó Briain and Angela Scanlon present the show, with commentary from Jonathan Pearce.
