Scrapheap Challenge
Series 4
Series Summary
This year's competitors include three ballroom dancing fanatics from Essex, a team of scientists from the British Antarctic research station and a hyper-competitive team of mill-wrights from the USA. The Megalomaniacs, last year's winners, will be returning for the grand final against this year's winners. The series ends with a one-off special called Mega Wars, the ultimate scrapheap scrap, with three teams and a two-day build.
