Once again, moronic Dogbot finds himself in a pickle, this time his canine capers involving a gadget far more suited to creatures of the rodent variety.

Dogbot seems to have a death wish, as he rolls around a car park in a hamster ball, getting in the way of a reversing Ford Fiesta. In normal circumstances you would expect the idiotic automaton to get thoroughly crushed, but the clever Fiesta has cunning rear-parking sensors, which avoid a collision. Stupid Dogbot still manages to royally cock things up for himself, though, as he rolls backwards down a ramp, ricocheting off a pillar and flying out of control into a strip light, landing with a bump while little baby dogbots fly around his dazed head.

Glassworks were again responsible for building the fully CG Dogbot, animating and rendering the creature in an amazing three weeks, followed by a complicated composite by Ian and Stuart in Flame.
