Splatalot! is a Canadian/Australian/British internationally co-produced medieval-themed physical game show for kids, which made its debut in its English Canadian premiere on March 14, 2011 on YTV, where it is hosted by Jason Agnew and Matt Chin. The Australian and UK broadcasts of the show use the same filmed footage as the original Canadian show, but with their own local presenters providing commentary. The show premiered in the UK on CBBC on June 13, 2011, presented by Richard McCourt and Dominic Wood (better known as "Dick and Dom"). The show premiered in Australia on ABC3 on November 5, 2011, hosted by Kayne Tremills and Scotty Tweedie. The series is a copy of Wipeout, designed for children's audiences.
Splatalot! is produced by Toronto-based marblemedia, commissioned as an international co-production by Canadian YTV, Australian ABC3 and British CBBC. It features a large, extreme obstacle course and three rounds of competition: Cross the Moat, Escape the Stockade, and Capture the Crown. Each episode features a different group of 12 teenage contestants (known as Attackers) competing against not only the obstacles and the clock, but also the Defenders. The Defenders are an international squad of nine medieval themed gladiators, who are tasked with protecting the castle from the Attackers. The winning Attacker is crowned King or Queen of Splatalot!. A second season was announced.
Contestants, known as "Attackers" are drawn from schools and sports clubs from across Australia, Britain, Canada, and consist of children aged 12 and up. A different group of attackers feature in every episode.
