Synopsis
A team of friends try to rescue stranded people in a computer game-style show, using robots that would look completely out of place in Robot Wars.
They have to complete a number of challenges in a certain amount of time, carefully designed to go right down to the wire. Large-scale sets in the Thunderbirds mould are used to give a reasonably realistic filmic effect, and three vehicles are controlled by different team members. The kids must work co-operatively to complete the multiple-part objective using microphone headsets to talk to each other. As a result, the games were quite long and as such a trifle boring at times. However, the eye candy of Anna Williamson playing up her officious role to the hilt perks things up.
This didn't get re-commissioned or, sadly, even complete its run because ITV's kids department started to implode around this time.
