Games World was a British Computer Games -based television programme, made by Hewland International and broadcast on Sky One each weekday from 1993-95, with a final series screened in 1998. The main body of the show took place on Mondays and Wednesdays, and was an elimination contest between several youngsters over several different video games, where winners would go on to Friday's edition. Every Friday, a single winner from the previous day staked points on various matches at differing games, and would go up against various WWF -style characters known as 'videators'. Winners received a ''Games World'' bomber jacket, and series winners would receive an arcade machine. However, later series got rid of the 'videator' element of the show. Bob Mills was the presenter from 1993-95; in 1998, he was replaced by Andy Collins, who did outside broadcasts for the final series, in an Aztec-themed environment. The overall concept of ''Games World'' was quite similar to Hewland International's ''GamesMaster'' (1992-98), which was shown every week on Channel 4 and had a new set for each series. CHARACTERS The inhabitants of ''Games World'' included:
