You need a point of reference to understand <em>why</em> it&rsquo;s brilliant. What about 1991&lsquo;s F/X 2: The Deadly Art of Illusion, where a man used a robot clown to remotely beat up baddies? No? Then what about Robot Wars; where people drove little Tyco cars at each other and then drooled over Philippa Forrester&rsquo;s PVC trousers? Still no? Real Steel? The film that literally only came out two years ago? The one where human-controlled robots punched other human-controlled robots? Still no? Really? Jesus. You people are the worst.<br /><br />Anyway, Robot Combat League is brilliant. Robots fight in it. If that doesn&rsquo;t automatically make it the best TV show of all time, you&rsquo;re an idiot.</p>]]></description><pubDate>2013-04-03 05:41:00</pubDate></item><item><title>Live Q&A with The Saturdays</title><link>http://blogs.virginmedia.com/tvradio/blogs/live-qanda-with-the-saturdays/</link><description><![CDATA[<img border="0" class="ccm-image-block" alt="" src="/files/cache/cbc867aed2125f6494c7d093a1a38b3c.jpg"  width="265" height="132" /><p>Ever wanted to ask The Saturdays how it felt to get their first number one?
