Chaos 2 went down in Robot Wars folklore for what it achieved all those years ago, and now Apollo has its place too.

Highlights: Poor, poor Thorpublished at 21:01 BST 28 August 2016
Thor gets launched
Classic action from earlier in the evening as, just like Elvis, Thor leaves the building - thanks to TR2 and a house robot.
Media caption, Thor gets flipped out of the arena in its head-to-head battle against TR2.
In dedication to... Foxicpublished at 21:01 BST 28 August 2016
Foxic promised big things but sadly didn't survive episode two. Host Dara remembers it fondly...
Quote MessagePossibly the least impressive robot that has ever qualified from a group battle"

Metal Memory Lane - Diotoirpublished at 21:00 BST 28 August 2016
In our look back of our all-time favourite Robot Wars contenders, no list is complete without Diotoir in our opinion.
Built and controlled by the charismatic Team Nemesis, its hopes were often ended in a (literal) blaze of glory at the hand of Sergeant Bash's flamethrower.
TR2 gets launchedpublished at 20:59 BST 28 August 2016
Action from earlier in the evening as Apollo launches TR2!
Media caption, In head-to-head battle, Apollo almost launches TR2 out of the arena.
Metal Memory Lane - Panic Attackpublished at 20:59 BST 28 August 2016
A Robot Wars veteran of six wars and two Extremes, Panic Attack conquered all in Series Two and used those classic lifting forks to carefully lower its trapped prey into the pit.
Also, once again, a solid polo shirt showing from team Panic Attack here, showing that the fashion game was as on point in 1999 as our teams today.
In dedication to... Carbidepublished at 20:58 BST 28 August 2016
A mighty effort from Carbide!
Quote MessageWe made it last the three minutes. Hopefully the audience enjoyed it!"

WHAT. A. VICTORY.
Some stunning battles for Apollo culminating in that win against heavily fancied Carbide.
