Each host has their own style of question, e. The three teams are then left to choose their three pod mods to fit on to their three racing vehicles pods based on what three places they got in the quiz, whereas the first place gets the first choice, the second place gets the second choice, and the third and final place gets the third and final choice. If there is a tie in the results, the two or three teams that are tied can select the two or three pod mods cooperatively.
There is also a special type of pod mod, the mystery mod , which is offered to the winner of King Pong's question. The winner is not obligated to take the mystery mod, although in most cases they do. These are four gadgets three pod mods, and one mystery mod that can be used during the race to gain an advantage.
The three teams then get ready to press the green button on the buttons section of the pod where they stand to answer the questions during the quiz, while the team's screen showing their logo lights up and illuminates, while building their vehicles, called pods , and then the pods are lifted up to a raceworld , a track consisting of 3, -4,- or occasionally, 5 locations in which the three teams must do 2 laps of.
Before they go to the raceworld, the three teams are unaware of what it will be, although there are hints given out during the quiz. Each raceworld consists of various obstacles in which the three teams will need to use their pod mods three and mystery mods one for the winner of King Pong's round to overcome.
The second lap is generally altered in order to make it harder for the three teams to get through. He claimed that the characters were based on designs for a show he proposed titled "The Bounce Bunch". In December , it was finalized that the Kerwhizz characters did not infringe his copyright. This lead to a discussion on subconscious copying where the designer takes liberties from another design without knowing so.
A lot of news articles about the Lawsuit have Ninki and Pip's names as Ninka and Poop - these were old names that were in use up until late in development, as shown in a booklet featured here. Kerwhizz Wiki Explore. Main Characters. Blog posts Forum. Sarah Ward catches up with year-old Jacob, the Kerwhizzitor, who fires the questions and commentates on the races, as he takes a break from playing his PlayStation to chat about his debut presenting role and how rewarding he found it.
Jacob, from North London, was very excited at the prospect of being part of Kerwhizz. But I guess they liked me and I got the job, which is great. I'm so excited.
It looks really amazing. The shooting was very intense, though, and it was just me and a crew in a room, as I'm the only real person in it. Because the script was so great, it kind of brought the characters to life in a way. When asked to describe what Kerwhizz is all about, Jacob likens it to "Whacky Races CGI meets a quiz show for kids" and says it's very whacky and racy.
At the same time I'm asking the audience at home and there are children in the audience, too, who will be supporting their teams. The more points they get gives them points to win a "mod" for their racing pod. So, for example, in Vegetable Valley Alley, you can win garden snippers, a spade or a packet of seeds — so that's a mod for their pod, which will hopefully help them in the race.
Half of it is the quiz and winning points, and the other half, which is personally my favourite part, the race — which is so much fun! In preparation for his role as the Kerwhizzitor, Jacob went to a primary school to do some research and was amazed at the children's reactions. The funny thing was when I asked them the questions they were excitedly joining in and shouting out the answers.
It seems like they really enjoyed it — it's great. I was nine months old in that! Jacob is studying Drama, Economics, French, History, Maths, English and Science at school, and took time out during his summer holidays and half-term to record Kerwhizz.
I'm absolutely terrible, because I had to do an evaluation. But I got an A star for my performance in the exam! What do Jacob's friends and classmates think of his new presenter status, and does he find it difficult to keep his feet on the ground?
So, how would Jacob persuade a group of pre-school children to watch Kerwhizz? I would probably just talk to them and have a listen to what they had to say.
