By day, Richard "[[Fan Nickname|The Hamster]]" Hammond presents [[Top Gear|television]] [[Brainiac: Science Abuse|programmes]] in which [[Stuff Blowing Up|things get blown up]] on [[Rule of Cool|flimsy pretexts]]. However, he also has a [[Secret Identity]] in which he likes to... um... [[Typecasting|blow things up on flimsy pretexts.]].
Richard Hammond's ''[[Blast Lab]]'' is a [[Science Show]] aimed at [[Saturday Morning Kids Show|children]] which attempts to [[Edutainment Show|teach]] various scientific theories by conducting [[Don't Try This At Home|dangerous experiments]] and [[Education Through Pyrotechnics|blowing stuff up]].
Line 8:
Every week a large haul of science-related prizes are set aside for [[Rival Science Teams|two competing teams]] who have to conduct experiments and answer science questions with help from the [[Studio Audience]]. The winning team get to take their prizes home. The losing team [[All or Nothing|don't]]. (You can probably guess [[Made of Explodium|what happens to ''their'' prizes]].)
In the opening credits of ''Blast Lab'', we learn that within the grounds of Hammond's [[Big Fancy House|home]] lies an old water mill that conceals the entrance to his secret [[Elaborate Underground Base|Blast Lab]] where he does [[Mad Scientist Laboratory|weird experiments]], grows strange new lifeforms in a tank of [[Covered in Gunge|toxic waste]] and creates [[Homemade Inventions|bizarre machines]] all in the name of [[For Science!|science]]!
He is assisted by his [[Never Mess
Speculation whether this show was originally supposed to be an episode of MTV's ''[[Cribs]]'' is best confined to [[Wild Mass Guessing]].
