'Kerwhizz is tremendous fun, looks absolutely amazing and children and grown-ups will be able to enjoy the game and the podcasts any time they like.' 'Children love quizzes but there hasn't ever been a television quiz for viewers of this age,' he added.
The BBC said viewers at home would be 'drawn into the action at every step of the game, answering questions, making predictions about the race and advising contestants when to use their 'pod mods''.ĬBeebies controller Michael Carrington said young children would be able to enjoy the quiz alongside their parents. Kerwhizz races can take place in any of 26 different CGI worlds, which reflect a range of environments from the astrological to the historical. The programme will feature three teams of computer-generated characters who compete to answer questions that will give them add-ons, or 'pod mods', for their high-tech racing machines, which can help them win a race against their opponents.īoth the show and online game are set to debut later this year on CBeebies.
