Prepare for some hot metal-on-metal action as late nineties TV favourite Robot Wars crunches into Bluewater this weekend.

More than 50 mechanical monsters old and new – including 2014 champ Eruption, previous winner Ripper and crowd favourite Behemoth – will cause carnage at the Greenhithe shopping centre’s Glow events venue on Saturday and Sunday (September 20 and 21).

Plus, there will be a very special guest from a galaxy far, far away.

As well as battles, there will be demonstrations, official merchandise and the chance to grab autographs.

Favourites Major Damage – a 960kg beast with a flame thrower and claw- and Matilda will also be in the arena.

The shows are at 2.30pm and 6pm on Saturday and noon and 3.30pm on Sunday. VIP tickets have sold out and general admission tickets (£16 adults and £14 children) are selling fast.
