0:00:02 > 0:00:06Welcome to Airmageddon, the ultimate test of flying fortitude.
0:00:06 > 0:00:11Our aviators and their highly-tuned drones take on a triad of trials.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16Each game, we'll wave bye-bye to one team, as they will be grounded.
0:00:16 > 0:00:21And, after three challenges, just one team will soar to the semis.
0:00:21 > 0:00:24Flying in their way is our fearsome foursome of resident drones,
0:00:24 > 0:00:29ready to turn your cosy little world upside down.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Who will be master of the skies?
0:00:32 > 0:00:35Aviators - buckle up your boots,
0:00:35 > 0:00:38polish your helmets, stand to attention...
0:00:38 > 0:00:42this is Airmageddon!
0:01:03 > 0:01:07Welcome to the Airena, the home of drone-on-drone competition
0:01:07 > 0:01:10and big-screen entertainment.
0:01:10 > 0:01:11Big-screen entertainment?
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Yeah, you know, like X-wing fighter pilots take on the Death Star,
0:01:14 > 0:01:16or Superman out-flying Batman,
0:01:16 > 0:01:20Ironman with his suit that goes faster than the speed of sound.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Mm? Will?
0:01:22 > 0:01:24What you doing? Will?
0:01:24 > 0:01:25SHE GROANS
0:01:26 > 0:01:30- It's Top Gun.- OK, let's meet some people who can ACTUALLY fly -
0:01:30 > 0:01:32let's meet our aviators.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Yes, the people that don't have to try hard to be cool...
0:01:36 > 0:01:39AUDIENCE CHEERS ..it's the Pie Flyers, in blue.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Next up, Team Ace.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43Out of the dark, Team Shadow.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46And the might of Quadflight 101.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53So we've met the teams.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56So now let's meet our personalised interactive gyrocopter.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59He's the Pig, and he'll show these guys how it's done.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06The airsault course - like a trip to the funfair,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09but much more like a nightmare for our aviators.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13Forget the candyfloss - one lap and you meet the boss.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Yes, a whistle-stop tour of ghoulish gates,
0:02:15 > 0:02:17harrowing Hurdles of Horror,
0:02:17 > 0:02:20putrefying Pillars of Precision,
0:02:20 > 0:02:24then the famed funnel of fury - the Vortex.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Burn past the boss, cross the line, set a time
0:02:29 > 0:02:31and, if it's quick enough, you'll go through.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36Pig there, he's got a flair for air.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38His moves are flamboyant and he creates
0:02:38 > 0:02:41significant turbulence with his flatulence.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Yep, let's see who'll be sharing his air
0:02:43 > 0:02:45on this heat's assault course.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49- AIR MARSHALL:- It's the Dragon.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51A genius acronym standing for
0:02:51 > 0:02:55Devious Reconnaissance Aerial Goon.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Oh, no, it's actually Direct Response Aerial Gyrocopter,
0:02:59 > 0:03:02but its only pleasure is your pain.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05The airsault course is set and our aviators are itching to
0:03:05 > 0:03:07get out there and tame it,
0:03:07 > 0:03:10so let's get them into the control tower - it's Team Ace.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13Thanks, Will.
0:03:13 > 0:03:1514-year-old aviator Marcus,
0:03:15 > 0:03:17with grandad Steve as wingman.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20Marcus once saved a dog with his drone.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Let's hope this hero, his drone ranger and Grandad
0:03:23 > 0:03:25can handle the heat.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29You guys are first up. Pressure?
0:03:29 > 0:03:30No, not really.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33"No, not really"? Super-chilled, casual.
0:03:33 > 0:03:36So, have you had a chance to check out the competition yet?
0:03:36 > 0:03:37Have you seen the other flyers in action?
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- Yes, we went up there yesterday... - Yeah?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42..to see how everyone else was flying.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- And what are your thoughts? - They're good.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46"They're good, they're good."
0:03:46 > 0:03:48OK, well, let's see how good YOU guys are. You ready?
0:03:48 > 0:03:51- Yes.- Aviators stand by.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55Well, best of British, Marcus and Grandad, sounding a little pensive.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58He does have to face this man - the dreaded Dragon.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02His breath is so bad, his dentist treats him over the phone.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04There's Pig! PIG GRUNTS
0:04:04 > 0:04:05He's in place of the absent Air Marshall.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Last thing we heard, he was being treated for a little rust
0:04:08 > 0:04:09in his undercarriage.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12The less said about that the better, I think.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Holy helicopters, here we go!
0:04:14 > 0:04:16PIG GRUNTS
0:04:17 > 0:04:19KLAXON SOUNDS
0:04:20 > 0:04:23Swift throttle up towards the first of four gates.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27It's 1.5m wide, the drone.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Beautifully through now,
0:04:31 > 0:04:33towards the Hurdles of Horror.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Very tricky indeed, the descent.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Pushes forward, perfect.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45You can see Pig in the background there,
0:04:45 > 0:04:47watching on in place of the Air Marshall.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49Now gate number two,
0:04:49 > 0:04:52the Pillars of Precision.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57Taking it steady.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Now he must yaw to the left.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02This is the difficult bit, I think.
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Yeah, no kidding. Difficult?
0:05:06 > 0:05:10This is one of the hardest things in the entire aeronautical world,
0:05:10 > 0:05:11and he's done it with ease.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Beautiful!
0:05:13 > 0:05:16He was lower than a snake's belly as he went through there.
0:05:16 > 0:05:17Spot on!
0:05:17 > 0:05:19Gate three.
0:05:19 > 0:05:23Don't call them hoops, they're hi-tech gates.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25There's the Dragon!
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Best to avoid this big, flamin' fella.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29The Vortex now.
0:05:29 > 0:05:31Right below the red line, is it?
0:05:31 > 0:05:33Under the red line, that's right.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37There we go. Grandad, good advice.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40As they head towards the final gate,
0:05:40 > 0:05:41the Dragon's-eye view.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Cool. Cool. Cool. Go for it.
0:05:44 > 0:05:452m flames could be coming out!
0:05:45 > 0:05:47Go for it, go for it, go for it...
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Absolutely. An expert in stating the obvious, Grandad - "go for it!"
0:05:51 > 0:05:53CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:05:53 > 0:05:561.31. Magnificent...
0:05:56 > 0:05:57flying.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Well, let's have a look at the replay.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02The final manoeuvre, a thing of flying beauty.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06He left the Dragon for dust.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08Ha! Sucker.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Team Ace, come over.
0:06:10 > 0:06:13I think you pretty much aced that, didn't you?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Marcus?- Yes - I hope so, anyway.
0:06:16 > 0:06:18- How was it out there?- It was good. - Yeah?- Yeah, I enjoyed it.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Are you telling me it wasn't very hard out there?
0:06:21 > 0:06:24- It wasn't really difficult, no. - HE LAUGHS
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Well, Pie Flyers are next, let's go
0:06:26 > 0:06:28- and see how they're going to get on.- OK.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Why, thank you, Rachel.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Yes, the next duo are called the Pie Flyers.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Piloting their tasty-looking drone
0:06:34 > 0:06:36is 14-year-old aviator Andrew.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39He can throw stones with his feet.
0:06:39 > 0:06:41Dad Stuart's the wingman. He has...
0:06:41 > 0:06:43no silly facts about him at all.
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Their self-designed drone will probably never be a big seller.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49Pie Flyers are up next
0:06:49 > 0:06:52and you're going to be out there with the Dragon.
0:06:52 > 0:06:53How are you feeling about that?
0:06:53 > 0:06:55As long as he doesn't get in my way.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Yeah, exactly...- Yeah. - ..he'd better watch out cos
0:06:57 > 0:06:59if he does get in your way, he's going down.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01OK, guys. Aviators, standby.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Fire up your motors.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07Rev up your rotors.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08You're cleared for takeoff.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Fighting talk from aviator Andrew.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Coming out on top of the Dragon
0:07:14 > 0:07:17sounds a little pie in the sky to me.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20PIG GRUNTS And there's my little piggy...
0:07:20 > 0:07:21starting us off.
0:07:21 > 0:07:24Bakers unite - this is your drone.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27There's Rachel with Team Ace,
0:07:27 > 0:07:29watching on in the workshop.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Of course, this team do not know
0:07:31 > 0:07:34what Team Ace did in terms of time.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Everyone must enter the Airena
0:07:37 > 0:07:40without any knowledge of what's gone before.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42You're doing great there, Andrew. Great.
0:07:42 > 0:07:44Take your time.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45PIG GRUNTS
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Under the second Hurdles
0:07:49 > 0:07:50of Horrendous Horror.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Now the third, even deadlier.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Oh, onboard view from Dragon.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58To the next gate.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02Oh-h-h, this is going to be close.
0:08:04 > 0:08:06Oh! Pie Flyers just slip it through.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- You OK there? Brilliant.- Yep.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14Steady...not too quick, though.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16I've seen continental drift move quicker than this.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Up to the next gate, gate three, and then you know what's coming next -
0:08:22 > 0:08:23the Vortex! Oh-ho!
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Here we go...
0:08:28 > 0:08:30the descent to take it on.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32Dropping like a stone.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34This natural phenomenon,
0:08:34 > 0:08:36created by that machine. Up he goes!
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Handled it beautifully.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Perfect.
0:08:39 > 0:08:43We have the final gate, and then you-know-who...
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Yes, the Dragon's breath's so bad
0:08:45 > 0:08:47you look forward to his flatulence.
0:08:47 > 0:08:48Over the line, over the line.
0:08:48 > 0:08:52Oh, but he's been burned! What a run!
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Dragon, you're fired, buddy...
0:08:55 > 0:08:58if only I could fire you, but I can't
0:08:58 > 0:09:00because I'm just the voiceover guy,
0:09:00 > 0:09:02but I am friendly with the Air Marshall.
0:09:02 > 0:09:03Anyway, the replay.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Sterling job all round.
0:09:05 > 0:09:081.38 the time, seven seconds slower
0:09:08 > 0:09:10than Team Ace, though.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Nice one. Really solid time there, 1.38 - how does it feel?
0:09:13 > 0:09:16It feels like a massive weight's been lifted off my shoulders
0:09:16 > 0:09:17now I've done it, yeah.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18Wingman, how do you think he got on?
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Absolutely brilliant.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22He did exactly what he said he was going to do - keep calm.
0:09:22 > 0:09:23He was brilliant.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Did you do exactly what you were going to do?
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- Words of encouragement?- Panic?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29- AIR MARSHALL:- Trial over.
0:09:29 > 0:09:31The only one who should be panicking right now is the Dragon -
0:09:31 > 0:09:33poor show from him.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Team Ace lead,
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Pie Flyers just behind,
0:09:37 > 0:09:39but right now, they're in the drop zone -
0:09:39 > 0:09:40will they be grounded?
0:09:40 > 0:09:42They have to beat the next two teams.
0:09:43 > 0:09:45Team Shadow out next.
0:09:45 > 0:09:4711-year-old Shannon is at the controls
0:09:47 > 0:09:50and Tracey is her Wingmum.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Shannon has 38 cats, which sounds a tad strange but it's
0:09:53 > 0:09:55in my script so it must be true.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59Her feline-inspired drone is named after her favourite - Shadow.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Let's see if they're PURRfect.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02How are you feeling?
0:10:02 > 0:10:04You're up here in the control tower
0:10:04 > 0:10:06and taking a look at it all for the first time.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Very excited, but a bit nervous at the same time.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Don't be too nervous - that's what your Wingmum's here for.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Have you been giving her words of encouragement?
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Yeah, she's going to try her best.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Is there any bit of the course that
0:10:16 > 0:10:18you're particularly worried about?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Erm, not really, just...
0:10:21 > 0:10:23just not crashing.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25That's good, just focus on not crashing
0:10:25 > 0:10:27and it's a good place to start.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30All right, then. Aviators, stand by.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Yes, not crashing, good advice, Will.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Fire up your motors.
0:10:34 > 0:10:36Rev up your rotors.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38Great place to start...now.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Little bit of thrust
0:10:40 > 0:10:41when the Pig gives the signal.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43PIG GRUNTS
0:10:43 > 0:10:45He's always hamming it up. Come on, Pig!
0:10:48 > 0:10:50PIG GRUNTS
0:10:50 > 0:10:52And they're off.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Good, rapid rise there for Shannon.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57Certainly looks promising so far.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Now towards the gate.
0:11:01 > 0:11:03Her aerial assistant, Wingmum.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05Go for the middle of the hoop.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06- I got it.- Good girl.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09"Go for the middle of the hoop," yes. Good advice.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12Oh, goodness, she's got herself snagged.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14Oh, the control, it's not so much
0:11:14 > 0:11:16Lionel Messi as Lionel Richie.
0:11:16 > 0:11:17Where's she going?
0:11:17 > 0:11:19I can't stop, I can't stop.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Oh! She's not dancing on the ceiling, she's against the wall!
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Rickety rotors! We have a problem here, folks.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Well, Shannon's not the first to come unstuck on this dreaded
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Airsault course. We've seen worse.
0:11:33 > 0:11:34Oh! Oh! No!
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Those Pillars pranged the Hovering Hornetz,
0:11:36 > 0:11:39the Hurdles hammered Stealth 2.2...
0:11:41 > 0:11:43..and the Vortex absolutely annihilated
0:11:43 > 0:11:46our very own Air Marshall.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48One false move, a misdirected manoeuvre
0:11:48 > 0:11:52and, as Sir Isaac Newton would say, "What goes up must come down."
0:11:55 > 0:11:58You did very well because you nearly held it together,
0:11:58 > 0:12:01and for a second I thought you were through and were going to plough on.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04You made it through the first gate, so there's a chance that
0:12:04 > 0:12:08the next team won't and you might still get through to the next round.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11OK, you'd better go and look after your drone - think it needs you.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13- AIR MARSHALL:- Trial over.
0:12:13 > 0:12:16Good news for the Pie Flyers - they've moved out of the drop zone
0:12:16 > 0:12:18after that Did Not Finish from Team Shadow.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21It'll be a nervous wait for them with just one team left to go.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24They'll have to hope the final team don't get beyond the first gate,
0:12:24 > 0:12:27otherwise it's curtains for Team Shadow.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Today's final team is Quadflight 101.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Captaining the ship, 11-year-old aviator Oliver,
0:12:35 > 0:12:37with big brother Joshua as his wingman.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41And check out the black and yellow go-faster stripes.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44I think this drone is a wannabe wasp.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Quadflight 101, AKA Oliver and Josh,
0:12:46 > 0:12:48how are you guys doing?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50- Good.- Very good. - Yeah? Are you excited about this?
0:12:50 > 0:12:53- Yeah.- What's with the name? Why Quadflight 101?
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Is it just because it's really difficult for me to say?
0:12:56 > 0:12:58- No.- No?- Well, slightly,
0:12:58 > 0:13:00but Quadflight because it's quadcopters,
0:13:00 > 0:13:04and 101 because it is your worst nightmare.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05We are your worst nightmare.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09Oh, my goodness! The other teams had better watch out.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10All right, then, mate,
0:13:10 > 0:13:13well, you'd better get underway. Aviators, stand by.
0:13:15 > 0:13:18This rivalling rotor show is heating up.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20There's the Dragon.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22PIG GRUNTS Me old mucker, Piggy.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24And we're away.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Oliver, the aviator, fan of origami.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Through the first one.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30I don't eat processed meats,
0:13:30 > 0:13:33- but let's see how things unfold for them.- Perfect.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Now then, Team Shadow crashed here.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37Quadflight 101 must get beyond to go through to round two.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Over that one. Over this next one.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41They don't know it, but they're through.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44Yes, great stuff for them.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Now the Hurdles of Horror.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Always so tricky.
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Brilliant. That's perfect.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52He's going very low. Goodness!
0:13:52 > 0:13:55He's lower than an ant's ankle.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58Now he can't go too slowly here. Remember, time flies.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01Look! It just did it with the magic of television.
0:14:01 > 0:14:051.53 in and we're going towards the Vortex.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Someone press the button, come on.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10There we go! The vicious Vortex
0:14:10 > 0:14:13finally is powered up, just in time.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Oh, they dealt with that brilliantly.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Time travel's so difficult to deal with.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Now the final gate and, look -
0:14:20 > 0:14:23the face-off with the Dragon.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27Has he got the skills to pay the bills...
0:14:27 > 0:14:30that 11-year-olds have? Yes, he does!
0:14:30 > 0:14:31Oh-ho!
0:14:31 > 0:14:33What a time! It's the slowest, though.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36It's not that great, but well done, boys.
0:14:36 > 0:14:37They're through!
0:14:39 > 0:14:40Here's the replay.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42The face-off with Dragon.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Certainly saved his best for last, Oliver.
0:14:45 > 0:14:46Over the line,
0:14:46 > 0:14:48albeit not the quickest time.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52- AIR MARSHALL:- Trial over.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54Team Ace on top,
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Pie Flyers in second,
0:14:55 > 0:14:57Quadflight 101 in third,
0:14:57 > 0:15:00but sadly, back to the shadows for Team Shadow,
0:15:00 > 0:15:03a DNF - Did Not Finish.
0:15:03 > 0:15:07Team Shadow, you are grounded, but, guys, come in, team hug.
0:15:07 > 0:15:09I think she did fab, didn't she?
0:15:09 > 0:15:12Well done, guys. Thank you so much for being brilliant.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Does mean you're grounded - Shannon and Tracey,
0:15:14 > 0:15:17I've got to lead you out. Follow me.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Yes, save a thought for the poor drone.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Look, he's still hanging there.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25Teams of aviators competing with customised drones could never
0:15:25 > 0:15:28be described as "normal". Neither can a flying pig.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31Pig, what are our surviving teams facing next?
0:15:35 > 0:15:38Our next challenge tests teamwork.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41The wingman works the highly-technical electromagnetic
0:15:41 > 0:15:43button, while the aviator must hover over the target long enough
0:15:43 > 0:15:46to winch up the weight, then release the weight in the
0:15:46 > 0:15:49scoring zone and, bingo, you have a point.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52The winning team gets five points going into the Dogfight.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54The losers? Grounded.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00Air Marshall, who will they meet in the next round?
0:16:00 > 0:16:01- AIR MARSHALL:- The Wasp.
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Oh, the Weaponised Assault Ship is the bolshie bad boy in our stable,
0:16:05 > 0:16:08these thoroughbred drones that are ferociously fickle.
0:16:08 > 0:16:11If you cross this one, wind him up,
0:16:11 > 0:16:13the sparks will fly!
0:16:13 > 0:16:16Are the Pie Flyers ready for the drop, Andrew?
0:16:16 > 0:16:19Erm, I think we'll be all right, yeah.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21How many magnets did you get in the practice?
0:16:21 > 0:16:23- None.- None.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25So we're hoping you do a little bit better,
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- but you're up against the other two teams in this one...- Yeah.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29..and you've got stiff competition, haven't you?
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- Yeah.- We have, very much, yeah.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Are you afraid of anyone in particular?
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- No.- No.- No?
0:16:35 > 0:16:36We have... We have no fear.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40- How are you feeling, guys? - ALL:- Good!
0:16:40 > 0:16:41Good stuff.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44OK, Quadflight 101, Oliver - you guys came third in the last round,
0:16:44 > 0:16:47It's really important you don't come third in this one.
0:16:47 > 0:16:49How are you going to make sure you don't do that?
0:16:49 > 0:16:51This is our strong point on this one,
0:16:51 > 0:16:54cos in the practice we were the only ones
0:16:54 > 0:16:56that actually got it in, so pretty confident about this one.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59That's a good sign. You're nodding vigorously, Josh.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Absolutely. This is our round, we're going to win.- Yeah.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Phwoar! Guys, fighting talk over here.
0:17:05 > 0:17:07All right, then, aviators, stand by.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Fire up your motors,
0:17:11 > 0:17:13rev up your rotors.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Roger that one, Will, and I have
0:17:15 > 0:17:17some exciting news for you all -
0:17:17 > 0:17:20the Air Marshall's back, our sheriff of the skies.
0:17:20 > 0:17:21How are you, sir?
0:17:21 > 0:17:25It's great to be back. How did Pig do in my absence?
0:17:25 > 0:17:27Oh, he did a marvellous job, Air Marshall...
0:17:27 > 0:17:30trot a patch on you, though, sir!
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Is that meant to be funny?
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Erm, just a joke, old boy. I'm terribly sorry.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37Shall we get on with the proceedings, sir?
0:17:37 > 0:17:39As you wish. Aviators, stand by.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Launch in three, two, one...
0:17:42 > 0:17:44KLAXON SOUNDS
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Oh, we're underway. Well said, sir.
0:17:46 > 0:17:47Why, thank you.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49I think we need to subtitle him, personally.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51Now, the wingmen, technical task -
0:17:51 > 0:17:53they've got to press their electromagnetic activator...
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Activate.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57..to lift and then release the weight.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Team Ace, first weights on the far side.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Don't knock it down.
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Quadflight 101, the yellows, looking to get in on the action.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09That's Team Ace already over the target zone.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Can they drop their first weights?
0:18:11 > 0:18:12Yes - point for Team Ace.
0:18:12 > 0:18:13Done. Right.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Oliver and Quadflight 101
0:18:17 > 0:18:19trying to get close to that weight.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22They've done it.
0:18:23 > 0:18:26They've picked it up. Well played, boys.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30The Pie Flyers in blue...
0:18:30 > 0:18:32they've also picked up their first weight.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35There it is. Activating the electromagnet,
0:18:35 > 0:18:38releasing it perfectly in the target zone.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40- AIR MARSHALL:- Proximity alert! Proximity alert!
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Oh, my goodness.
0:18:42 > 0:18:44The Air Marshall - what's up?
0:18:44 > 0:18:45Oops, sorry.
0:18:45 > 0:18:46He's been out of action for ages.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49He can't stay away from the drama, can the old boy?
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- OLIVER:- Whoa!
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Ah!
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Now, Quadflight 101
0:18:53 > 0:18:56still looking to drop their payload into the target zone.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Looks like they're having trouble.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Ooh, some horrendous hovering.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- Steady.- I've got it.
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Over on the far side, Team Ace, well done.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06They're on for number 2.
0:19:06 > 0:19:07Now here come the yellows.
0:19:07 > 0:19:09Can they get there first?
0:19:09 > 0:19:11Yes... Oh, did that bounce out?
0:19:11 > 0:19:12Oh, no!
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Air Marshall, does that count?
0:19:14 > 0:19:15No, it doesn't.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18The rule book clearly states, chapter four, paragraph nine -
0:19:18 > 0:19:21"Any droppage leading to barrier hoppage,
0:19:21 > 0:19:23"nul points," as they say in Spain.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Team Ace, 2. Easy.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Good counting, Will(!)
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Now, to team Pie Flyers...
0:19:31 > 0:19:33..just missing their second weight.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Quadflight 101 still to get on the scoreboard.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Oh-ho! That's not going to help!
0:19:40 > 0:19:42- HE MOANS - Oh, well.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45Goodness me. Flying that like an overweight ostrich.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49Now, coming in for another red.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51They're already up 2-1.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Just the yellows that need
0:19:53 > 0:19:55to get off the mark. Bingo!
0:19:55 > 0:19:57What a brilliant pick-up.
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Blues coming in.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Remember, two go forward to the Dogfight.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04The winner gets the five-second advantage.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06Wait, wait, wait - go.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Looks like the reds are going to be having that.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09That's it.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10Where are the yellows?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13Don't worry, we can get this one.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Oliver seems to be losing his bearings a little bit.
0:20:18 > 0:20:20Oh, yes!
0:20:20 > 0:20:21The Pie Flyers...
0:20:23 > 0:20:25..and the reds, too - they're going for 4.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Oh, the Pie Flyers so nearly scoring.
0:20:31 > 0:20:32THEY GROAN
0:20:32 > 0:20:34Oh, unlucky!
0:20:34 > 0:20:35Yeah, quite right.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Did you see that?
0:20:37 > 0:20:39The replay here - look at that nasty rollage.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Now the reds...
0:20:42 > 0:20:434!
0:20:43 > 0:20:45(They've got 4!)
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Oh, this is posing, showboating!
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Now the yellows - their first pick-up.
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Well done, boys. Come on!
0:20:53 > 0:20:55Take it to the target zone.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56Take her home!
0:20:57 > 0:20:59I have huge confidence in you.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Steady.
0:21:01 > 0:21:02There - go, go.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Reds going for another - they're greedy.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Oh, dainty touch from the blues, on 2.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Come on, yellows...ye-e-e-ah!
0:21:09 > 0:21:11Yes!
0:21:11 > 0:21:13It's a point, well done,
0:21:13 > 0:21:14they're off the mark.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Hang on, that'll knock it off.
0:21:16 > 0:21:184-2-1. Oh, and the reds, their first fluff.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Let's see it from the Air Marshall's point of view.
0:21:21 > 0:21:22Yes, plop to the floor -
0:21:22 > 0:21:24that's their last one.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26- AIR MARSHALL:- Too late.
0:21:26 > 0:21:27Now the blues and the yellows...
0:21:27 > 0:21:29oh, the blues miss theirs.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31It's a lifeline to the yellows.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33Come on, boys!
0:21:33 > 0:21:36The yellows inside the control tower.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Face of concentration.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41THEY GROAN That was their chance!
0:21:41 > 0:21:42That's it, I've lost.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Holy horrendous hovering, it's over!
0:21:45 > 0:21:47The blues'll go through,
0:21:47 > 0:21:48and the reds in the lead.
0:21:48 > 0:21:50Squad nullified.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53It's Team Ace who'll get the five-second lead
0:21:53 > 0:21:54going into the Dogfight.
0:21:54 > 0:21:574 points for them, Pie Flyers, 2...
0:21:58 > 0:22:02..Quadflight 101, 1, equals grounded.
0:22:02 > 0:22:07Oliver, Josh, you guys only managed to get one in your target area,
0:22:07 > 0:22:10so that does mean I'm going to have to say, "You're grounded."
0:22:11 > 0:22:14You were a great competitor, brilliant out there.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15- Nice one.- Nice one.
0:22:15 > 0:22:17OK, that means that, Pie Flyers,
0:22:17 > 0:22:19Team Ace, both of you guys are
0:22:19 > 0:22:21through to the dogfight and, Team Ace,
0:22:21 > 0:22:23because you aced that challenge
0:22:23 > 0:22:26and got four in the target, you go in with a time advantage.
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Nothing says "Airmageddon Dogfight"
0:22:34 > 0:22:36quite like a flying farm animal
0:22:36 > 0:22:39going toe-to-toe with a motorised insect
0:22:39 > 0:22:41in a laser firing contest.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Yes, you know the score -
0:22:43 > 0:22:45throttle through the entry activation gate
0:22:45 > 0:22:46to power up your lasers,
0:22:46 > 0:22:49then make a short dash to the flaming combat zone
0:22:49 > 0:22:52for a bout of aerial laser jousting.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Zap your opponents' infrared sensors with a well-directed laser
0:22:56 > 0:22:58and they will lose their life.
0:22:58 > 0:23:00Lose all four, you're grounded.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05Our two finalists are about to battle it out in the combat zone.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07They face each other,
0:23:07 > 0:23:10and they have, of course, to avoid our resident drones.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14Spin that wheel of misfortune - who will it be?
0:23:14 > 0:23:15The Guard.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Oh, yes, indeed, and he has quite the fight record.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Weighing in...quite a lot more than all the other resident drones,
0:23:21 > 0:23:23it's the Guard!
0:23:24 > 0:23:27Large, bulky, not so smart...
0:23:27 > 0:23:29he thinks Sputnik plays for Chelsea.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32So, teams, remember, if you stray
0:23:32 > 0:23:35into the no-fly zones, our resident drones may engage.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37And, believe me, you do not want that to happen.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39- Are you all prepared? - ALL:- Yes.
0:23:39 > 0:23:41All right, then. For the last time,
0:23:41 > 0:23:43start your pre-flight checks,
0:23:43 > 0:23:46adjust your straps, calibrate your sights.
0:23:46 > 0:23:47This is the Dogfight.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Well, we're all set in this crucible of carnage
0:23:51 > 0:23:54for today's final round - the Dogfight.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Air Marshall airborne.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00One team gets celebrity and the semifinals.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03The other? The only big movie part
0:24:03 > 0:24:05they're going to get is Drone Alone.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09Team Ace will lead from the front, five-second advantage.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11Over to you, Air Marshall.
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Stand by. Team Ace,
0:24:14 > 0:24:16launch in three...
0:24:16 > 0:24:18two...
0:24:18 > 0:24:19one...
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Here we go!
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Pie Flyers, launch.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26The reds have to get through their activation gate,
0:24:26 > 0:24:28five-second advantage.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30Team Ace, targeting systems engaged.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Now can they TAKE that advantage?
0:24:32 > 0:24:35Pie Flyers, targeting systems engaged.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37Blues also activated -
0:24:37 > 0:24:39it's a shoot-out now.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Dad, go.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Ooh, air-crafty there.
0:24:43 > 0:24:46Lots of firing, lashings of lasers,
0:24:46 > 0:24:48but no-one's taken a hit yet.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53On board with the Air Marshall.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Good to see he's not snoozing.
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Another zap, that was close indeed.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01On with the Pie Flyers.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Look at this, face-to-face.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Is someone going to shoot?
0:25:05 > 0:25:07It's a Mexican standoff.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Now there's a couple of zaps...
0:25:12 > 0:25:14too bad they're not on target.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15Fire.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20- Ooh!- Fire.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23Need to get your sights in here.
0:25:23 > 0:25:25Fire.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Still no-one's lost a life. On board with the blues.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Now the reds,
0:25:28 > 0:25:31Team Ace getting him in their sights - take the shot!
0:25:31 > 0:25:33REDS CHEER, BLUES GROAN Yes! They've got him!
0:25:33 > 0:25:37Strike, blue team, three lives remaining.
0:25:37 > 0:25:38First life lost.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40Goodness me, smoking away,
0:25:40 > 0:25:43and that is illegal when you're up in the air.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48And he's got him again!
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- Strike, blue team...- Two hits on the Pie Flyers.- ..two lives remaining.
0:25:51 > 0:25:52Oh, my goodness,
0:25:52 > 0:25:55the blues are taking more punishment than a one-armed boxer.
0:25:57 > 0:26:00So just two lives remaining for the blues.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04Make that one. Oh, my goodness!
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Strike, blue team, one life remaining.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11I think they're into freefall here, in terms of confidence,
0:26:11 > 0:26:13and they may well be out soon
0:26:13 > 0:26:15if they don't pull something off.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Come on, blues.
0:26:17 > 0:26:18I think Dad's got the yips.
