Rex on the Bench

Series set in the imagined world inside a games console from the makers of "Sorry I've Got No Head", following a group of computer game characters on and off screen as they go about their daily lives.

Each of the characters comes from different gaming genres, from a questing elf to a zombie battling waitress, as well as a marsupial hybrid who collects apples, a space marine, a glamorous legend hunter and Kiki Nova, an incredibly upbeat and enthusiastic dance star. After each episode, viewers can go to the CBBC website and find the same characters starring in an arcade suite of six games, featuring graphics and sound bites from the show.

The harmony of the console is interrupted with the arrival of a team of footballers from a premiership sports game that has been rented. Although Rex and Riley are excited to see their new console mates Kiki, Claireparker and Alexia are far from happy. Rex and Riley get even more excited when there's an opportunity to join the team - but they have to get through the trial first and there's only space for one person. Friendship turns to rivalry and things only get worse when the prize is revealed to be not all that it seemed.
