HP Sighting - Junkyard Wars - BillBee - 09-06-2022 05:42 PM
[attachment=11080]I was pursuing an old Episode of Junkyard Wars and came across:
Scrapheap Challenge - Underwater Chariot - S03 E03
Definitely a Voyager (11c or 15c) - the video quality was poor btw.
Edit: 9:41 is the spot
Earlier there was also a Palm but I am not familiar with those.

Good spot - it's an 11c, as seen in this video (it's called Scrapheap Challenge in the UK)

The translucent blue handheld is a Handspring Visor - Handspring being a successor company to Palm.

The male presenter (Robert Llewellyn) may be better known as the actor who played Kryten in Red Dwarf. (I'm not sure how well-known Red Dwarf was outside the UK.) The female presenter (Cathy Rogers) was co-creator of both Scrapheap Challenge (in the UK) and Junkyard Wars (in the USA).
