Steam Punks is a narrative science quiz show for children. Two pairs of children aged between 12 – 15 years are transported into a bizarre underground steam punk world. There they are confronted with a crazed inquisitor who works for an unseen megalomaniac robot called the Machine. She has charged the inquisitor with putting these teams through a series of mental and physical challenges, all in the name of science. If they win they will be teleported back to the surface of the earth. If they lose they are condemned to perform disgusting chores for the Machine. The host is an exuberant and eccentric fellow who has never passed the test to be released and is condemned to assist the Machine forever.
