0:00:02 > 0:00:04Over 12 shows, our Airmageddon aviators have shown
0:00:04 > 0:00:07incredible bravery, fast reactions and high-level flying skills.
0:00:07 > 0:00:11But has it all just been too easy?!
0:00:11 > 0:00:14Now it's time to find out, and for the oldies to take over the
0:00:14 > 0:00:17controllies and try to show their offspring a thing or two.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20Will they prove themselves to be the daddy of all fliers?
0:00:20 > 0:00:22Find out right here right now.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25This isn't Airmageddon, this is Dad-mageddon!
0:00:25 > 0:00:27But it is Airmageddon, really.
0:00:46 > 0:00:47CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:00:47 > 0:00:52Welcome to a very special air-dition of Airmageddon.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Four of our favourite teams are returning to the Airena.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56But whilst they may be familiar,
0:00:56 > 0:00:59there's something very different about them, too.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Because some of our wingdads are revolting.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06- No need to get personal, Will!- Oh, this is personal, all right, Rachel.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09They actually think they're better pilots than their kids.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11Well, frankly, they really should know better,
0:01:11 > 0:01:12especially at their age!
0:01:12 > 0:01:15OK, calm down. There's only one way to settle this.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Dance-off?
0:01:17 > 0:01:18- No.- No?
0:01:18 > 0:01:21Oh, you think we should cave in to their demands and actually
0:01:21 > 0:01:22hand them the controls?
0:01:22 > 0:01:25You really think they should be allowed to compete here,
0:01:25 > 0:01:27in the Airena, not as wingmen but as pilots?
0:01:27 > 0:01:29- Absolutely! - I love it when we do this.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32- RACHEL CHUCKLES BOTH:- Let's meet our aviators!
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Rolling out against the shore first are Tidal Waves' Katie and Dave.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Chasing them down is the Sky Wolf, Rune and Paul.
0:01:40 > 0:01:46Swooping down next is Doom Dragons. Holly and Stuart, there. High five!
0:01:46 > 0:01:50And gathering up the booty are the Pirates of the Air, Joshua
0:01:50 > 0:01:54and Nicholas. All familiar faces, half of them olden faces.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56So, Sky Wolf, you guys are up first.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- Paul, you've been in the Airena before.- Mm-hm.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02How different is it, knowing that you are going to be at the controls?
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- It's quite a bit different. It's a bit nerve-racking.- Yeah?
0:02:05 > 0:02:06So I'm just going to, erm,
0:02:06 > 0:02:10try and do my best for Sky Wolf and hopefully not mess up too much.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12Hopefully not embarrass him too much.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Yeah.- Do you reckon you can handle the pressure?
0:02:14 > 0:02:16- No. - WILL LAUGHS
0:02:16 > 0:02:18He handled it fine.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21So, are you looking forward to basically bossing your dad around?
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- Yes.- Are you going to be quite a strict wingman?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26- Are you going to really crack the whip up there?- Yeah.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- WILL LAUGHS - Good. You've got a lot
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- to look forward to.- Thanks.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34And here's PIG, taking us through the course of our first challenge.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39And have we given them a daddy course to undertake!
0:02:39 > 0:02:41Through the first gate,
0:02:41 > 0:02:43round the Pillars and into the Letterboxes of Luck.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46Question - how many Will and Rachels would it take to make up one
0:02:46 > 0:02:48of the Letterboxes of Luck?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Answer - about 12, as it turns out.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Keep still, Will and Rachels!
0:02:52 > 0:02:56PIG coming through. Second gate, then down to the Fog Box.
0:02:56 > 0:02:57My new name for it.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01Rise up to the horizontal gate then up two and through the third
0:03:01 > 0:03:03vertical gate, down to the Vortex.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06You could get a double-decker bus through there, mate!
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Ha-ha! All aboard! Well, one-and-a-half buses, to be exact.
0:03:09 > 0:03:13Another gate, another pillar and peg it home for tea and biscuits.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15Easy-peasy.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18And as always, one of our resident drones will be taking off to
0:03:18 > 0:03:22interfere, distract and generally get in the way. But who is it?
0:03:22 > 0:03:25'Selected - GUARD.'
0:03:25 > 0:03:29The big, grey, hulking, rotund figure of the GUARD is lurking.
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Apparently, he had some very hot chilli last night with
0:03:32 > 0:03:37extra beans, so watch out for some fearsome gastric action.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39So, let's kick things off with Sky Wolf.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42We all know about Rune from earlier in the series.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45He likes to dance like a nutter and likes a bit of boxing.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48But now that Paul's at the controls, well, he's a keen indie-music
0:03:48 > 0:03:52guitarist, but most importantly, he flies drones himself.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Good luck, Paul and Rune.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57- CHEERING AND APPLAUSE - Paul, welcome.- Thanks.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Rune, welcome. So, Paul, how much flying experience have you got?
0:04:01 > 0:04:05- Not a great deal, to be honest. Just a bit with Rune for fun.- Right.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Nothing serious.- Yeah. OK. Well, it's going to get serious now, mate.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11The fun is about to stop. Rune, what's his speciality?
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- What's your dad really good at? - Crashing.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16The important thing to remember, Rune,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19is that even though he's got the controls, you're in charge.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- All right? So, you're going to be bossing him around, right?- Yeah.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25How are you going to keep him on track?
0:04:25 > 0:04:26- Shout at him. - WILL LAUGHS
0:04:26 > 0:04:30Shout at him! Good luck, Paul. All right, then, aviators, stand by.
0:04:30 > 0:04:35So, this is it. Dad's at the controls and son's on the vowels.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38Fire up your motors, rev up your rotors.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42- You're cleared for takeoff.- 'Sky Wolf, launch in three, two, one.'
0:04:45 > 0:04:49- Maybe doesn't want to launch just yet.- In, in.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- Or doesn't know how to launch.- Go!
0:04:52 > 0:04:54OK! He's up!
0:04:55 > 0:04:57So now we see him coming around the course.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01This is a very high-pressure environment.
0:05:01 > 0:05:03Does the pressure tell on his face?
0:05:03 > 0:05:05Yes, it does.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12And he goes up and around.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14And around...
0:05:14 > 0:05:16Forward gently.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19And through - or rather, into - the first gate.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Rune is getting quite agitated!
0:05:22 > 0:05:25- Careful! That's it. - Whoa, what was that?
0:05:25 > 0:05:30The GUARD? Wow! What's he playing at? Anyway...
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Letterbox. He's cautious.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38GUARD not too happy about that, it seems, so he is.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40So, through the first Letterbox.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42No, not through again!
0:05:45 > 0:05:47A bit of up and down before managing the second.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53And rising for the third.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56He's looking pretty good, y'know, all things considering.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58This isn't half bad!
0:05:59 > 0:06:02- Up, forward a little bit. - Look at that face! Awww!
0:06:02 > 0:06:04Gently...
0:06:04 > 0:06:05Gently...
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Gently!
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Anyway, so, let's skip to the Foggy Corridor.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12He seems to be having a few issues with visibility.
0:06:12 > 0:06:17Probably old age. He drops to the ground and, er...
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Forward!
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Other than that, he seems to make it pretty much through unscathed...
0:06:22 > 0:06:26it seems. Now it's the horizontal gate.
0:06:26 > 0:06:30He seems to be taking a roundabout way of getting up there.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33But he gets the height. He just needs to slip through.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34Drop, drop.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39- Nice. Clean.- Right, careful. - Very good. He's doing well now.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Positively glides through the next gate. Look at that!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45- Vortex to go.- Slow down now.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Look at his face there, a face like granite.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52But are the cracks starting to show? Not yet.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53Not yet...
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Gets down to the stripes.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58Pitches in and makes his way up.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- Up, up, up, up!- "Up, up, up, up," his son says.
0:07:02 > 0:07:07Gets out through the gate at the top. Bingo bango!
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Not doing too bad, is old man Sky Wolf.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Oh, no, what's happening here?!
0:07:13 > 0:07:14Round and round we go. I'm getting dizzy!
0:07:14 > 0:07:18- He survived!- How he managed to get out of that I do not know.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23Very graceful! It's like a ballet or something. It's lovely.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25I don't know what ballets you've seen, Will.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Anyway, here he is, making his way...
0:07:28 > 0:07:31GUARD! Oh, that chilli really did a number on you, didn't it, mate?
0:07:31 > 0:07:35I think you might need to see a doctor. Anyway, through the gate.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38Ohhh! OK, careful now.
0:07:38 > 0:07:43The GUARD there ever present. Makes a bit of a meal of that last Pillar.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Here he is. You're supposed to fly, not walk, mate!
0:07:48 > 0:07:52And he crosses the line in three minutes 16.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56We've had quicker, I won't lie. But not a bad effort there.
0:07:56 > 0:08:01Slow and steady. A bit of rope work, but he survived to see another day.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Well done, Paul. - Come in, Sky Wolf.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08Rune, right, I want to know how you think your dad got on out there.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10- Erm, good.- Really?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Are you truthfully thinking he did really well?
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- It's not the best of times he got. - Exactly what I was thinking.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18But he didn't crash! Did you expect that?
0:08:18 > 0:08:20No, I was expecting him to go whizzing off and not be able
0:08:20 > 0:08:22to see him.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Paul, how much do you now respect what these guys had to go through?
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Oh, yeah, you realise how hard it actually is and the effort
0:08:30 > 0:08:33they've all put in. Yeah, it is really intense, yeah.
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Right, the Tidal Waves. If you remember rightly,
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Katie was a go-karting, pony-riding, climbing machine
0:08:39 > 0:08:42who was also scared of spiders. Well, she still is.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Wingdad - now aviator - Dave is apparently an excellent
0:08:45 > 0:08:48drone flier himself, according to, well, him!
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Let's see if he can match the abilities of his daughter.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55Now, Dave, you've got some experience of flying, right?
0:08:55 > 0:08:56- Er, a little bit, yes.- Yeah.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59How much experience of flying drones, though?
0:08:59 > 0:09:02Well, not nearly enough. People have been calling Katie my wingman,
0:09:02 > 0:09:05but really, I think today I need a copilot.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- How do you feel about that, Katie?- Good.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10I'm really looking forward to being the wingman,
0:09:10 > 0:09:12because it means I don't have the pressure of flying.
0:09:12 > 0:09:15Oh, yeah. Exactly. All right, let's see how speedy you can be.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Aviators, stand by.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:09:18 > 0:09:21Fire up your motors rev up your rotors.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23You're cleared for takeoff.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27'Tidal Waves, launch in three, two, one.'
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Quick, you need to go!
0:09:30 > 0:09:32So, he's up and...
0:09:32 > 0:09:33Where's he going?
0:09:33 > 0:09:36We've heard of One Direction - that's the WRONG direction, mate!
0:09:36 > 0:09:39Katie certainly seems to be wearing the trousers in this relationship.
0:09:39 > 0:09:45- You're going to crash! Stop, you're wasting time.- First gate coming up.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- No...- You're going to hit the hoop. Careful.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50Sky Wolf look on with amusement.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I actually think that Katie's instructions are making it
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- more difficult for him. - You're wasting seconds.
0:09:56 > 0:10:00Or maybe he's just taking a look at the course. Who knows?
0:10:00 > 0:10:02OK, now he's going quite slowly.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04GUARD once again blowing off a stack.
0:10:04 > 0:10:09What's wrong with his guts? Never seen him do that before.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11Apart from the last round.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14OK, right, so he's coming back round the course.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Hopefully, he'll be able to make the first gate.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19Now back, back. Come on.
0:10:19 > 0:10:25- You must have wasted about ten, 15 seconds then.- Says Mrs Bossy-Boots!
0:10:25 > 0:10:29Slow. You're the wrong way round! Why are you spinning?
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- Hang on, Katie, just give me a minute.- Katie, just chill out, yeah?
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- Stop spinning. - Give your old man a break!
0:10:35 > 0:10:41- Back. Come back.- OK! So he's going for the first gate.- Slow down. Stop!
0:10:41 > 0:10:44And... Oh, bang! Bang. He bounces back out the way he came.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- Katie is not going to like that. - Hang on, Katie...
0:10:47 > 0:10:49He's having a few problems!
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Right, let's do this.
0:10:51 > 0:10:52Right, are we ready to start now?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Yes, please, start.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59You're going to hit it, you're going to hit it!
0:10:59 > 0:11:01- Ooh... Ooh...- Ooooh!
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- Ooh!- OK, now through, through. - He goes for it again and...
0:11:03 > 0:11:06It's moving, so it makes it harder.
0:11:06 > 0:11:07Oh, no, he's caught a rotor!
0:11:07 > 0:11:10And he's now hanging from the gate.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Katie seems to know what to do, if he can only just listen to her.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15He listens to her...
0:11:15 > 0:11:18And... And, oh, no, he's off!
0:11:18 > 0:11:20He's plummeted to the ground.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22- Well done(!)- Oh, dear.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26Now let's see that from nine different camera angles, shall we?
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Damn good crash, though, one of the best yet.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30That is pure entertainment.
0:11:30 > 0:11:34- Katie, what happened?- The whole story is I said, "Up," he went down.
0:11:34 > 0:11:40- What? You weren't listening to her! Dave!- Well, so, I mean...
0:11:40 > 0:11:42He was caught on the hoop.
0:11:42 > 0:11:46I said, "Go up," to get, like, to go up, then you would be fine,
0:11:46 > 0:11:47but he decided to go down
0:11:47 > 0:11:50and flip over and then crash. You've broken loads!
0:11:50 > 0:11:52And look at your dolphin!
0:11:53 > 0:11:58Not happy. Look at that face. Not a happy girl.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02So, Sky Wolf is the only course completer, with three minutes 16,
0:12:02 > 0:12:05a terrible time, but with Tidal Waves crashing out on the
0:12:05 > 0:12:10very first gate, it says DNF, but perhaps it should say DNS.
0:12:10 > 0:12:14Sky Wolf are through, whatever. They are safe. Guaranteed.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Holly and her dad Stuart are really looking forward to going
0:12:17 > 0:12:19shark diving when she's old enough.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22He is big into radio-controlled stuff and she likes
0:12:22 > 0:12:24a bit of arts and craft.
0:12:24 > 0:12:27They worked together on creating their own Dragon for the Airena.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29Let's see how it fares this time.
0:12:29 > 0:12:33So, Stuart, what's it like being an OAP?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36An Older-Aged Pilot is obviously what I mean by that.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40Not bad, not bad. I've not flown one of these big ones before,
0:12:40 > 0:12:43- so it'll be quite a challenge. - What about you, Holly?
0:12:43 > 0:12:48Are you looking forward to seeing him possibly make a fool of himself?
0:12:48 > 0:12:49- Yeah. - WILL LAUGHS
0:12:49 > 0:12:53So, how are you going to help him round? Remember, you're the boss.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Erm, I'm going to tell him to go up or down or forwards or back.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00- Yeah, and hopefully he'll actually know how to do that.- Yeah!
0:13:00 > 0:13:02All right, then. Well, let's see how you guys get on.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Can't be too much worse than the last people. All right, good luck.
0:13:06 > 0:13:07Aviators, stand by.
0:13:07 > 0:13:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:13:08 > 0:13:11Fire up your motors, rev up your rotors.
0:13:11 > 0:13:12You're cleared for takeoff.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16'Doom Dragons, launch in three, two, one.'
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- So, Doom Dragons are in the air. - Right, slowly.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25They're trying to get through the first gate already.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27Right, up a bit and back a bit.
0:13:27 > 0:13:31So, they get through and, oh, they haven't...
0:13:31 > 0:13:33They're still hanging around here.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37GUARD, excuse yourself! Guffing all over the place!
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Someone open a window.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40These guys can't be much worse than the last two,
0:13:40 > 0:13:43but there probably is a chance they could be.
0:13:43 > 0:13:44What do you reckon, AM?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46'There is potential for infinite possibilities.'
0:13:46 > 0:13:48- Meaning...?- 'They could be.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51'Or they might not be. Or they could be the same.'
0:13:51 > 0:13:54Well, if you look at it like that... fair point.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56OK, he takes it round the first Pillar.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57Excellent wingmanship there!
0:13:59 > 0:14:01Holly's doing a really good job.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Watch out for the flame.
0:14:04 > 0:14:09Right, now to the Letterbox. Come this way a bit. Right, it's yours.
0:14:09 > 0:14:14I'm happier in this angle. Do you think it works like this?
0:14:14 > 0:14:16And oh, GUARD, please, it's getting very eggy in here.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21- Good, good.- Wingman doing well in guiding him.
0:14:21 > 0:14:24He makes the first Letterbox.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26I would have waited a little more, to go a little further.
0:14:28 > 0:14:32The others watch on with keen interest.
0:14:32 > 0:14:34This is some pretty good flying, actually.
0:14:34 > 0:14:38Look how that Dragon shimmers in the light. It's quite romantic.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41Down.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44- Letterboxes are done. - Control, control.- Well done.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47- And now it's up to the next gate. - Right, are you going to yaw it?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- It's easier.- Yeah, I know. - And er, where's he going?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53Oh, no! Oh, no!
0:14:53 > 0:14:57It was going so well. The Dragons are doomed. I tell ya, doomed!
0:14:57 > 0:14:59If you're wondering why I installed that
0:14:59 > 0:15:03mythological-creature-proof glass, there's your answer.
0:15:03 > 0:15:08So, tell me, truthfully, what you thought of your dad's flying.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Up to the point where he crashed, it was going quite well.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15When he crashed, I was like, "Oh, that's... Yeah."
0:15:15 > 0:15:20- Had you been telling him how to fly beforehand?- Yeah.- Mm. Didn't listen.
0:15:20 > 0:15:24- No.- No. Stuart?- The yawing was the bit where I went wrong,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26but I think before that it was all right,
0:15:26 > 0:15:28and Holly was giving me tips as to how to go through and past
0:15:28 > 0:15:31all the obstacles, so, yeah, I think we were all right up to that point.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33You were doing good being the wingman,
0:15:33 > 0:15:37so it's just disappointing that I really got it wrong!
0:15:37 > 0:15:39Yes, you did!
0:15:39 > 0:15:41- 'Times confirmed.'- That told you.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44OK, so, three down, and only one completion.
0:15:44 > 0:15:47Sky Wolf are top with three minutes 16, and, amazingly,
0:15:47 > 0:15:50even with that outrageous crash,
0:15:50 > 0:15:53the Doom Dragons are set to make it through to round two!
0:15:53 > 0:15:57Now, this last run will decide who stays and who goes.
0:15:58 > 0:16:03So, to complete the set, Pirates of the Air, Joshua and his dad Nick.
0:16:03 > 0:16:06Josh is a keen film-maker, and they both enjoy mountain biking.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09They spend much of their time flying drones but not racing them,
0:16:09 > 0:16:13so let's see how they handle a bit of healthy competition.
0:16:13 > 0:16:16So, Nick, I get the impression from you, from your body language,
0:16:16 > 0:16:19you're actually quite confident about this. Am I completely wrong?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Reasonably. I've been practising.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23I've had help from my five-year-old doing assault courses round
0:16:23 > 0:16:26the lounge, on various washing-up baskets and ironing boards.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Well, Josh, you did very well when you were out here before.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32I mean, surely you're going to pass on some of that wisdom to your dad.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34- I'm going to try and help him as much as I can.- Yeah.
0:16:34 > 0:16:39And if he does really well, will a bit of you be angry?
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- Because he might even do better than you.- Maybe... Maybe.
0:16:42 > 0:16:46All right, fingers crossed you'll get round in a good time.
0:16:46 > 0:16:47Aviators, stand by.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:16:49 > 0:16:52Fire up your motors, rev up your rotors.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53You're cleared for takeoff.
0:16:53 > 0:16:58'Pirates of the Air, launch in three, two, one.'
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Pirates of the Air, here we go!
0:17:01 > 0:17:03OK...
0:17:03 > 0:17:06It's, er, ponderous, to say the least.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08- Your left.- But at this point, compared to the others
0:17:08 > 0:17:09he's a right little Richard Branson.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Your left.- I'll tell you who he is after the show.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15- What matters is they don't crash! - That's a first on Airmageddon,
0:17:15 > 0:17:18the wingman actually taking the controls!
0:17:21 > 0:17:25OK, now they're having a few issues getting through the first gate.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Let's pick it up later, shall we? They're going very slowly.
0:17:29 > 0:17:31Can we forward-wind this, please?
0:17:31 > 0:17:34OK, right, blah-blah-blah-blah- blah-blah-blah-blah-blah...
0:17:34 > 0:17:37And here we are at the last gate!
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Slowly now. Nice and slowly.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42They're having a few issues getting through, but eventually they
0:17:42 > 0:17:45manage it, and all they need to do now is get across the line
0:17:45 > 0:17:49and they'll be through. It's as simple as that, folks.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54They're through, and over they go.
0:17:54 > 0:17:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:17:55 > 0:17:58And...excellent, they've decided to save their crashing till
0:17:58 > 0:18:02after they've crossed the line. At least they made it to the end.
0:18:02 > 0:18:03'Times confirmed.'
0:18:03 > 0:18:05Who's your daddy? Well, these guys are your daddy.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Fastest were Sky Wolf, with three minutes 16.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Next to finish were Pirates of the Air,
0:18:10 > 0:18:12with a leisurely four minutes 21 seconds.
0:18:12 > 0:18:14And as for the last team to go through,
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Doom Dragons made it further round the course than Tidal Waves,
0:18:17 > 0:18:19so they go through to round two.
0:18:20 > 0:18:224:21!
0:18:22 > 0:18:26It's one of the slowest times we've ever seen on Airmageddon,
0:18:26 > 0:18:30but you're through to the next round and you're in second place!
0:18:30 > 0:18:34So you should be genuinely really pleased. How do you feel about that?
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- That's brilliant.- Yeah! Nice one. Josh?
0:18:36 > 0:18:39- That was our goal, to do it slow and just get through.- Yeah, exactly.
0:18:39 > 0:18:43Well, job done, guys, Pirates of the Air. Nice!
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Katie, Dave, we know the deal.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50- Katie, do you have anything you want to say to your dad?- You're grounded.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51She knows the deal.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54She can ground her dad, for once. Guys, you've been great,
0:18:54 > 0:18:57but I have got to ask you to leave.
0:18:57 > 0:18:58See you later!
0:18:59 > 0:19:02Three teams continue to the next round.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05Ah, and here's PIG with everything they need to know.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10We've seen this one before, and it's very popular.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12"Pop"-ular, get it?
0:19:12 > 0:19:14The aviator drones are fitted with sharp poles,
0:19:14 > 0:19:17which they must use to burst the balloons.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20The aviator to burst all of their balloons or more than anyone
0:19:20 > 0:19:24else in the time with their poles will get the five-second advantage.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Got that? Whoever gets the least balloons or crashes out first
0:19:27 > 0:19:28is grounded.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31'Selected.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35'The WASP.'
0:19:35 > 0:19:40Waiter, there's a fly in my soup. Oh, hang on, that's no fly.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42Why, it's the daddy-hating, kiddie-baiting
0:19:42 > 0:19:44stinging machine, the WASP.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Well, they've taken a few knocks and they're looking a bit rickety,
0:19:47 > 0:19:50but we will get them in the air again soon.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52And er, I think the drones need to fly, as well.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55CYMBAL CRASH AND LAUGHTER
0:19:55 > 0:19:58- OK, guys, are you ready for some flying?- ALL:- Yeah!- All right, then.
0:19:58 > 0:20:02- Aviators, stand by. - And they all turn to the Airena.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06Fire up your motors, rev up your rotors.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08You're cleared for takeoff.
0:20:09 > 0:20:14- Look at that handsome line-up. - 'Launch in three, two, one.'
0:20:15 > 0:20:18So, they all rise majestically.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21- Not!- I've a feeling this is a little bit dangerous.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22And probably not for the balloons.
0:20:22 > 0:20:26Oh, Will! If only your wit was as furry as your collar.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Anyway, how are the dads getting on?
0:20:28 > 0:20:32Oh, they seem to be slowly sussing out the dynamics of flying.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35And Doom Dragons are the Boom Dragons!
0:20:35 > 0:20:40- I'm all over the place again. - You said it. What is he doing?!
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Oh, no, stop spinning. You'll get dizzy!
0:20:42 > 0:20:46Somehow, in that moment of madness, he also managed to pop a balloon.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49That is either some mad skills or some crazy luck.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51I'm going with the crazy luck.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54Haven't seen much from Sky Wolf yet. Are they here? Are they here?
0:20:54 > 0:20:59Sky Wolf? Here they are. Still trying for their first balloon.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02- Careful. Steady!- And steady he goes.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04- Go!- He approaches the balloon
0:21:04 > 0:21:07and misses. Oh, what now?
0:21:07 > 0:21:10He bounces off another balloon and goes hurtling to the floor.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12Game over for Sky Wolf, methinks.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16So, Doom Dragons and Pirates of the Air are still in the air,
0:21:16 > 0:21:20even if their balloon bursting is less than prolific.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21Looks like the Greens...
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Yes, the Greens take a balloon.
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Well done, Doom Dragons. And look, smoke is starting to billow out of
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Sky Wolf. Air Marshall, what are you saying?
0:21:30 > 0:21:35- 'Continue.'- OK, so the Dragons are not really going anywhere fast.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38And now Sky Wolf is on fire! Will!
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Will, you said you wanted to see a drone on fire in the series.
0:21:41 > 0:21:43Marshy, what's happening now?
0:21:43 > 0:21:47'Airena is clear, humanoids may continue.'
0:21:47 > 0:21:50But look, two humanoids - I mean people - have run in with an
0:21:50 > 0:21:53extinguisher, and someone else has run in...
0:21:53 > 0:21:56to hug him! Oh, that's nice.
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Surely the game will have to end now.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01And the Pirates go into a tailspin. Oh, look!
0:22:01 > 0:22:03I can't see this going on much longer. Can it?
0:22:03 > 0:22:07- 'Continue.'- It is!- 'Humanoids, escape.'- Air Marshall, OK!
0:22:07 > 0:22:10Well, Pirates of the Air have still not recovered, and... Oh, boom!
0:22:10 > 0:22:12They crash out of the game!
0:22:12 > 0:22:16- Dramatically. - Get that power... Power up.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18There's no power there, son.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22So that must mean that, as the only survivors, Doom Dragons are the...
0:22:22 > 0:22:24Well, they don't need telling. It's obvious.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26They are basking in their victory.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28They line up, they take a balloon, and..
0:22:28 > 0:22:31Oh, they topple down to the ground, and it's game over.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36A fascinating round where everyone wanted to be the one who
0:22:36 > 0:22:39crashed out the biggest, it seems.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42And the leaderboard at the end of round two looks like this.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45Doom Dragons get the all-important five-second advantage in the
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Dogfight. They'll be joined by Pirates of the Air.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Sky Wolf, it goes without saying, are grounded.
0:22:50 > 0:22:52But look, if you're going to go down in flames,
0:22:52 > 0:22:55at least it means you were on fire.
0:22:55 > 0:22:58Doom Dragons, you are going through to the Dogfight with that
0:22:58 > 0:23:02five-second time advantage. Congratulations. Well done.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06- You'll be joined in the Dogfight by Pirates of the Air.- Yes!
0:23:06 > 0:23:09Well done, guys. You popped one balloon then went
0:23:09 > 0:23:12through the hurdles and then crashed. But that was all fine.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14And unfortunately, guys, Sky Wolf,
0:23:14 > 0:23:17that does mean that you are grounded.
0:23:17 > 0:23:20- But have you had a good time? - Yeah.- Brilliant, yeah. Amazing.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22Excellent stuff. All right. Bill you for the drone later.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:23:27 > 0:23:31You hear a lot about the unique bond between fathers and sons.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Well, we're doing our best to either build it or destroy it, here
0:23:34 > 0:23:38in the Airena. As always, both flying machines have got four lives.
0:23:38 > 0:23:43Take a direct hit and they'll lose one of them. This is the Dogfight.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45This is the Dadfight Dogfight!
0:23:49 > 0:23:52It's the rise of the daddy dogs. I know, it's good, that, isn't it?
0:23:52 > 0:23:56Aviators must rise up and activate their lasers by going through
0:23:56 > 0:23:59the gate, and then it's an all-out laser battle,
0:23:59 > 0:24:02blast, blast, blast, until one team gets four hits on the other,
0:24:02 > 0:24:06thereby crowning them Daddy King of the Skies.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Speaking of which, causing a stir in the Airena will be...
0:24:10 > 0:24:12- 'It's the DRAGON.' - Oh, it's the big, bad,
0:24:12 > 0:24:16fire-breathing daddy of the skies, the flying red patriarch, DRAGON!
0:24:18 > 0:24:23OK, aviators, if you stray from the combat zone, the DRAGON may engage.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26Now trust us, that's something you DON'T want to happen.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Right, dads, I want to know if you've got any final words
0:24:29 > 0:24:31for each other before this parent-powered Dogfight.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34- We're coming to get you. - WILL GASPS
0:24:34 > 0:24:35Ah, we're going to win. Definitely.
0:24:35 > 0:24:41Punchy. I like it. OK. Let's get this Dogfight Dadfight under way.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43- Aviators, stand by. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:24:43 > 0:24:47Calibrate your sights, complete your preflight checks.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50This is the Dogfight. You're cleared for takeoff.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54These dads talk the talk. Will they walk the walk?
0:24:54 > 0:24:56That's not right, is it? Will they fly the fly?
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Here we go.- 'Doom Dragons, launch in three, two, one.'
0:25:00 > 0:25:04'Pirates of the Sky, launch in three, two, one.'
0:25:05 > 0:25:08- Dragons are up. - 'Targeting systems, engage.'
0:25:08 > 0:25:12Intensity, potential mayhem.
0:25:12 > 0:25:15I fear this is more of a case of who can stay in the air the longest.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17'Targeting systems, engage.'
0:25:17 > 0:25:20These two are going to be shooting it out for days. I hope you've
0:25:20 > 0:25:22brought a toothbrush.
0:25:22 > 0:25:26Pirates of the Air reel off a shot, but not aimed at anything.
0:25:26 > 0:25:29Both keeping their distance. They're sizing each other up.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32You can really feel the psychological war that's brewing up
0:25:32 > 0:25:35between these two ruthless teams!
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Yes! The Dragons rattle off a shot.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41It goes nowhere, but that's not the point.
0:25:41 > 0:25:46Another shot, this time across the bow, a warning to the opposition.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50They're playing a very clever game here.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52They're using the whole of the Airena.
0:25:54 > 0:25:59The DRAGON watches on. He can feel the tension brewing.
0:25:59 > 0:26:04But now the Pirates are making a move. They start to play their card.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Look how they zip up and then drop to the floor.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09The Doom Dragons watch on, stunned.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12"What does this mean?!", they ask themselves.
0:26:12 > 0:26:13We don't know.
0:26:13 > 0:26:16The DRAGON watches on as the Pirates rise up to the top of the
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Airena and then drop back down again.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24The Dragons wait, refusing to be intimidated.
0:26:24 > 0:26:25They await their moment.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29The Pirates reel off a shot, but it's a miss.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32But it's a shot. Y'know, give them a chance...
0:26:32 > 0:26:35The Pirates are zipping about with all the vigour of, er...
0:26:35 > 0:26:39Hang on a minute. This isn't exactly exciting at all, is it, really?
0:26:39 > 0:26:42I don't think either of the aviators have a clue what they're doing,
0:26:42 > 0:26:44if I'm honest!
0:26:44 > 0:26:47In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if... Whoa, what's going on?
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Something's happened.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52The Pirates took it upon themselves to crash into the tower,
0:26:52 > 0:26:55in order to give us all something to get excited about.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00Now, that's not like Pirates of the Air, to crash!
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Oh, hang on, tell a lie. Yes, it is.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06Let's have a look at some of their others, shall we?
0:27:07 > 0:27:11Crash! Smash! Eat it!
0:27:13 > 0:27:15Well, what can I say? Not much, really.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18Doom Dragons win by way of not smashing their craft into the tower.
0:27:18 > 0:27:22In fact, pretty much all the way through they won by default.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25All they needed to do was to show up. Easy!
0:27:25 > 0:27:29That does mean, Doom Dragons, even without getting a single shot
0:27:29 > 0:27:32on target, you are the winners of our parent-powered special.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41And for you guys to step up.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49My highlight of today was seeing my dad crash REALLY bad.
0:27:49 > 0:27:51He did tell me to take it slow and steady, yeah.
0:27:51 > 0:27:53And I didn't listen, no.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58I enjoyed coming back, because I could boss my dad around.
