OK, so Iron Chef Morimoto goes to the junkyard to build a small nuclear device, while Iron Chef Kobe builds a remote controlled pasta machine with rotating knives. The match is judged by Craig Charles from Robot Wars (and, of course, Red Dwarf, you old smegger you).

Go Morimoto!!

Hey, what the hell. Let’s get Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, in there with some spitting cobras.

Now that’s some damn good TV!!!

Hey people, this subject has been covered a few times. I’ll do the Thread Nazi thing here because the OP was answered (I think in the first thread below). There are also links to the official web sites in my post:
