Mission: 2110 was a British childrens' Game Show that aired on CBBC, with a tie-in web game, about groups of children trying to fight back against a horde of hostile robots.In the 2030s, the Roboidz - toy robots that could think for themselves, essentially - were invented, and over the years were refined to become humanity's helping hands. Eventually, though, they decided they had enough and exterminated their creators, turning their victims into the zombielike Shades. By the year 2110, only one human (as far as he knows) is left alive: Caleb, the partially-robotic son of the Roboidz' creator, and he's not happy with the canheads occupying his home. To combat the Roboid menace and take back the Earth from them, Caleb recruits children from the year 2010 to infiltrate the Futuregate ship, the Roboidz' home base, and trains them while simultaneously raiding their power reserves, ultimately taking his finest recruits to a final assault on the Roboidz and their leader Neuros.Four teams of four recruits, over the course of 12 episodes, would be whittled down to just four for the final assault via a series of games.

comment
Darker and Edgier and Lighter and Softer: Manages to be both to its predecessor Raven. While the setting is much darker (Raven's usual fare is a tournament where the in-universe risk is minimal thanks to Raven's resurrective magic, whereas 2110 takes place After the End in a world dominated by hostile robots who won't hesitate to maim humans in-universe), Caleb is allowed to be emotionally closer to the contestants than Raven and humor is more present, contributing to a lighter tone despite the heavy setting.

David Versus Goliath: Caleb takes on Arkon, a commander-class Roboid who's easily twice his size, in a fight scene during the last moments of Series 1 and wins.

Laser Hallway: The final game of each series, Neuros Web, consists of a long hallway of lasers leading to Neuros's tank. Touching a laser merely teleports the unlucky Recruit back to the starting point.

Keystone Army
 Mission: 2110 / int_3df9c288
comment
Keystone Army: The Roboidz and Shades have two different flavors of keystone: first, they require Biorods to power themselves, although there are so many Biorods that it would take decades to make a dent in their forces by pilfering them. However, the second and more important keystone was Neuros, the computational mind coordinating the Roboid forces. Unplugging her would shut down all of the Roboidz and Shades as a result.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot: The Roboidz were originally peaceful servants of humanity until one of them went rogue. Their leader Neuros is not a case as she represents Laura's brain without her conscience, making her a non-mechanical threat.

 Mission: 2110 / int_735b4101
comment
Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: Each Roboid class has a different color of external shell - Workers are yellow, Wardroids are red, and Commanders are silver. Arkon is blue. The Vaporiser grid would also change color in the first playthrough to show how the enemies were moving: green for right, blue for forwards, and purple for left.

Our Zombies Are Different: Shades are reanimated cyborg humans created by the Roboidz to be their servants. They're clad in black with face-obscuring helmets, tend to be not very bright, a mere touch from them is lethal to a human, and they supposedly smell nasty.

Teleportation
 Mission: 2110 / int_961c30e5
comment
Teleportation: Each Recruit was given a "panic button" that they could (and in some cases had to) press in order to teleport themselves out of danger, sometimes at the cost of the Biorods they accumulated. Naturally, these were taken from them during the Vaporiser.
