Overview[edit]
Plot[edit]
The series follows the lives and adventures of racing vehicles Roary, Maxi, Zizzy, Dragga, Tin Top, and the people they work for, Big Chris the mechanic and Marsha the race marshall and the owner of the race track, Mr. Carburettor. Also there's Officer Pete, Farmer Green, Molecom, Furz, and many more. The plot sometimes revolves around other vehicle characters, such as Rusty, Trucksy, Nick, Lugga, Zippee, Hellie, Breeze, Conrod, James, and Loada.
Setting[edit]
Roary the Racing Car is set around a fictional motor racing circuit called Silver Hatch (a portmanteau of the names of the two British Grand Prix racing circuits, Silverstone and Brands Hatch). The majority of the action takes place at the track's pits and workshop, although we often follow the cars on their laps around the track. Occasionally, the characters venture to external locations such as the nearby beach.
Narration[edit]
Each story begins and ends with a brief narration from racing car driver Sir Stirling Moss. He is also used as a voice-over. The US version is narrated by American stock car driver Sam Hornish Jr.
Characters and Voice Cast[edit]
- Roary (from the United Kingdom, voiced by Maria Darling) is a young and excitable racing car. He is Big Chris's 'Number One Star' and best car friend. Roary is new to Silver Hatch, but with the help of his friends, he is quickly learning the ropes at Silver Hatch. He always wants to impress Big Chris and copy all of his friends's moves. Roary does not know too much about racing yet, but he has won quite a few races and is slowly learning how to become a star racing car. His signature colours are red and white. He wears a white baseball cap with a checkered pattern at the bottom and a red star emblazoned with the number 1 at the top. Roary is occasionally Cici and FB's best friends and always wants to play with them. He is so full of energy and has the mindset of a schoolboy. There is a sibling rivalry between Maxi and Roary. They compete over everything. Roary does not like it when Maxi bullies him, but he will occasionally bully him as well. However, most of the time, they are shown to be good friends with each other. Roary can occasionally be slightly rebellious, but has a good heart and is the most sensible of the cars. He often assumes a role of leadership among the other cars. Overall, Roary is very playful and enjoys racing around the track. His catchphrase is 'Light 'em up!'. He is based on a Formula Ford 1500 race car.
- Maxi (from Italy, voiced by Marc Silk) is an older yellow Formula 1 type racing car who was the star of Silver Hatch before Roary arrived. He is temperamental and expects the best of everything - including first use of the tyre warmers. He wears sunglasses and a blue cap and sports the number 5. Maxi is Italian and is the favourite of Mr Carburettor. Because of this, he has an Italian accent, although this is de-emphasized in the US voiceover. When starting a race, Maxi can make flames erupt from his exhausts. There is a healthy sibling rivalry between Maxi and Roary. Maxi's catchphrase is 'Mamma Mia!' He is based on a Formula One racing car.
- Cici (from France, voiced by Maria Darling) is a young, cute bright pink and purple stunt car with the number 3 painted on her front and doors. She is an electric Rally Car and carries solar panels on her roof. She has a flirtatious attitude and is always challenging Roary to catch her if he can during races. Because Cici is from France, she has a squeaky French accent. She is one of Roary's best friends and the first car to talk to and race Roary on his first day. Cici is also Roary's girlfriend, but she has a massive crush on Maxi, though she is often very impressed by Roary as well. Cici can often act coy. Her two catchphrases are 'Catch me if you can!' and 'Race you!' (She's often called Zizzy in the American version.). She is based on a first generation Citroën C1.
- Tin Top (from the United States of America, voiced by Kerry Shale) is a big and powerful stock car. He often takes his corners too fast and wide and regularly ends up in either the sand trap, the tyre wall, or the mud, generally in a tangled heap of disconnected parts. Tin Top's catchphrase is appropriate given his frequent visits to the workshop: 'Tape me up, hammer me in, and send me out!' He sports the number 88 and, in the UK dub, he speaks in a mock-American accent, and Peter Kay voices him. Like Maxi, Tin Top can make flames come out of his tailpipes. In the US version, Tin Top speaks in a stereotypical 'urban' accent, and does not appear to have a catchphrase. He is loosely based off a Chevrolet Monte CarloStock car.
- Drifter (from Japan, voiced by Marc Silk) is a very hi-tech Drift racing car. In line with his name, he can be observed to exhibit extreme oversteer handling characteristics, with his tail end swinging out wide on every corner. He has an on-board computer with a head-up display in his windscreen. Drifter has a fabulous dragon on his sides and also sports blue neon undertray lighting and he wears the number 6 on the top of his front windshield and back windshield. He speaks in a mock Japanese accent. Drifter’s catchphrase in the UK version is 'Go-go, nitro boost!' but he does not have a catchphrase in the US version. (He's often called Dragga in an American version.). He is loosely based on a Nissan Silvia S15 and a Nissan R-34 Skyline.
- Rusty the Caravan (voiced by Dominic Frisby) is Big Chris' home on wheels who lives at Silver Hatch. He is often found to be sleeping, but rarely minds being woken up by the other characters and he enjoys reminiscing about his time as a mobile caravan. He can give useful advice, but often entirely by accident. Big Chris lives in Rusty.
- Plugger (voiced by Marc Silk) is a 4x4 off-road vehicle or 'mud-plugger'. Plugger is the most laid-back character at Silver Hatch and he never gets rushed or panic-stricken. In the UK version, he speaks with a soft Caribbean accent; in the US version, he speaks in a mild Southern drawl. He often uses his telescopic winch to rescue Roary and Maxi from mud, gravel, or sand. Plugger can often be heard uttering his catchphrase, 'No need to race, Plugger’s on the case!' (He's often called Lugga in the American version.) He is based on a fourth generation Mitsubishi L200.
- Flat Bed (voiced by Dominic Frisby) is Farmer Green's pickup truck. He is usually seen with Farmer Green or playing with two of his best friends, Roary and Cici. He has a West Country accent. His main catchphrase is 'Roary's my best friend!' Model: Chevrolet 3100 (He's often called FB and called Trucksy in the American version.)
- Zippee is Marsha's motor scooter. She is of indeterminate gender as the only vocalizations made by Zippee are a beeping sound, similar to a small car horn, which is her catchphrase, 'Beep-beep!' (She's the only vehicle character on Roary The Racing Car who does not talk.) She is based on a Vespa motor scooter.
- Hellie is a bright red and purple helicopter, who transports Mr Carburettor around the track. He has a large headset which he uses to communicate with the ground-crew, usually broadcasting a booming 'Hellie is go!' Marc Silk voices him.
- James is a silver British classic sports car who takes Mamma Mia wherever she needs to go. He has several gizmos and gadgets including an ejector seat, an umbrella, water cannons, and a towel. His catchphrase is 'The name's James!' and he speaks with a posh English accent. He is named after James Bond and Dominic Frisby voices him. He is loosely based off an Aston Martin DB5.
- Nick is the Silver Hatch police car who works with P.C. Pete to keep the cars safe. He enjoys playing with the other cars and he wishes he could race with them too. His catchphrase is 'Wicked!' Marc Silk voices him. He is based on a Lamborghini Gallardo
- Breeze (from Australia) is a turquoise beach buggy who lives at the beach at Silver Hatch. She is good at stunts, like Cici, and loves it when the other cars come to visit. Her catchphrase is 'Life's a breeze!' and has a very fake Australian accent. Maria Darling voices her. She is based off a Meyers Manx dune buggy.
- Loada is a transport truck who takes the cars to special occasions. He has lots of different stories from the road and he enjoys telling them to his friends. His catchphrase is 'Lock n' Loada!' and he has an Eastern European accent. Dominic Frisby voices him. He is a European Style Cab over type Lorry.
- Conrod (from Australia) is a race car who is named after the stretch of the racetrack at the Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales. He has a big noisy V8 and arrives without warning at Silver Hatch. In the UK version, Australian V8 Supercar champion Craig Lowndes voices him. In the US version, Marc Silk voices him. He is based off a Team VodafoneFG Ford Falcon of the V8 supercars touring car race series.
- Big Chris is Silver Hatch race track's mechanic. He occasionally commentates and starts races. He lives in Rusty the caravan and looks after the race track and cars. Big Chris has a typically northern catchphrase, 'If you bend it, you mend it!' (The US version, much less mellifluous, is 'If you bend it, you fix it!') Big Chris is portrayed as being very messy and absent-minded, often 'losing' objects directly in his line of sight, and eternally surprised by his own walkie-talkie. While working on the cars, he often practices his karaoke with an out-of-tune version of a song called 'Motor Man'. Comedian Peter Kay voices him in the UK dub, while in the US dub, Kerry Shale voices him.
- Marsha is a race marshal and the unofficial administrator of the Silver Hatch race track. She loves things to be tidy and organised, which often puts her into conflict with Big Chris. She is very fit and enjoys a good run. She speaks with a thick British accent and her UK catchphrase is 'Gears to go, brakes to slow!' while in the US version, she doesn't have a catchphrase. Maria Darling voices her.
- Mr. 'Antonio' Carburettor is the flamboyant owner of Silver Hatch race track. In the UK version, he has with a pronounced Italian accent, while in the US version, he has a New York accent. His favourite car is Maxi, who he considers to be the greatest car in all the world. He also has a gold tooth, which sparkles in the sun when he smiles. In addition to that, he even has a very quick temper, usually turning his face red, making steam come out of his ears, and often saying that the thing of his anger 'is driving me up-a the ceiling!' He is a perfectionist who sometimes berates Big Chris for tardiness, although Marsha often covers for Big Chris in front of Mr. Carburettor. Mr. Carburettor often likes to watch his cars race around the track, usually cheering for Maxi, although he does congratulate the winner (not Maxi), whoever it may be. Mr. Carbutettor can't pronounce Tin Top's name right. He shares the same catchphrase as Maxi, 'Mamma Mia!' and he can often be heard singing opera. Tim Whitnall voices him.
- Farmer Green owns the farm located just to the side of the Silver Hatch race track. He often waves as the cars zoom past. He owns Dinkie the Donkey and likes to invent bio-fuels, which sometimes work, but often don't. His UK catchphrase is 'Green by name, green by nature!' though, like many of the other characters in the US dub, he doesn't have a catchphrase. Tim Whitnall voices him.
- Mamma Mia is of Mr. Carburettor's mother and the owner of James. When she first visited Silver Hatch, it was thanks to Flash that she enjoyed the race (which resulted in every car, except Roary crashing). Now she is a regular visitor to the racetrack. Her catchphrase is 'Home James!' and she speaks with an Italian accent. Maria Darling voices her.
- P.C. Pete is the Silver Hatch policeman and Marsha's younger brother. When he sees one of the race cars speeding away from the track, he calls to his police car, Nick to follow them. His catchphrase is 'Follow that car!' Dominic Frisby voices him. (He's often called Officer Pete in an american version.)
- The Track Inspector is the inspector who sometimes comes to the track to be shown around the track. When he first visited the track, the cars went through ice at 'Skid Slope' and began skating around and Mr. Carburettor believed it was a disaster, but the inspector didn't think it was bad. He later appears in 'Motormouth'. Dominic Frisby voices him.
- Hugo Amarillo is a racing car designer who once came to the track to be shown around. Marsha has a crush on him. Big Chris repaired Tin Top in time for Hugo's visit and during the visit, when Mr. Carburettor showed him Maxi racing, the latter crashed and lost a tyre, causing it to roll backwards toward everyone and Tin Top rushed to stop it and ended up crashing, but Hugo was impressed and decided to design a car like Tin Top. Big Chris, after being introduced to him, says, 'Is this the way to Hugo Amarillo?' referencing Is This the Way to Amarillo, which the actor for Big Chris and Tin Top, Peter Kay is known for performing. Dominic Frisby voices him.
- The Pizza Boy is a boy who delivers pizza to Big Chris as seen in 'Silver Hatch Fun Run'. Dominic Frisby voices him.
- Murray Walker is the world's class commentator, he had a go on Flash's skateboard on the stunt track to show his aerobics, and visits Silver Hatch in 'It's Go, Go, Go, at Silver Hatch' and 'Motormouth'. He is voiced by Murray Walker OBE.
- Flash is an anthropomorphic rabbit, who lives under a tree on the edge of the track at 'Hare-Pin Bend' (a play on 'hairpin turn'). He regularly tries to cause mischief, from small things like hiding equipment to intentionally trying to cause accidents by moving traffic cones around to divert the racing cars the wrong way. Flash really wants to be a racing driver and often challenges the Silver Hatch cars to race against him as he rides his high-powered skateboard. When Flash is caught getting up to no good, you will often hear his main catchphrases: 'Furz...must fly!' and 'Chew my carrots!' being two repeated ones. Marc Silk voices him. (He's often called Furz in an american version.)
- Molecom the Mole is a bespectacled mole who is often found clearing up the mess left behind after Flash has tried to cause havoc. Being a mole, he lives underground, and often digs out, causing molehills to appear when he comes up. By some kind of sixth sense, Molecom never seems to dig out through the track, although is often seen digging out through the concrete pit stop area. His catchphrase is 'I'm a mole with a role!' Dominic Frisby voices him.
- Dinkie the Donkey is an old, grey donkey who is often seen at the side of the race track (and occasionally on it), with his ears flapping after the cars race past him. Tim Whitnall performs his vocal effects.
Production[edit]
The series uses a combination of computer-generated imagery and stop-motion animation; the stop frame animation was initially provided by Cosgrove Hall Films, the producer of Noddy's Toyland Adventures, the 2004 Postman Pat series, and many other shows produced by said company, and latterly by Chapman Entertainment's own in-house studio. The series was originated by David Jenkins, who spent four years working in senior management at Brands Hatch Race Circuit. The idea was conceived while watching the Grand Prix on television with his then-18-month-old son, Tom. It was designed and developed by Keith Chapman, creative director of Chapman Entertainment and the creator of Bob the Builder (both 1998 and 2015 series), Fifi and the Flowertots, and PAW Patrol, and the series executive producer is Greg Lynn.
