Questionmaster •
Kerwhizzitor (voiced by
Jacob Scipio) is a young man who moderates the quiz, asks the questions, makes bad puns and rhymes based on the theme and tries to keep the teams in order. In the race world and the story world, sequences Kerwhizzitor commentates.
Contestants •
Team Ninki comprises
Ninki (voiced by Kriselle Basilio), a dark-skinned Mid-European girl with bunches and a singing voice that is commonly said to be "terrible" (although while introducing her team at the beginning of every episode she sings well); and
Pip, a green-furred bipedal
Scottish terrier with an extendable metal neck. Pip cannot speak, but can often shape his barks and growls into an approximation of words. Despite this, Ninki sometimes fails to hear him when he has an answer to a question and offers her own answer, which is usually incorrect, instead, causing him to growl in frustration. •
Team Twist comprises
Twist (voiced by Alex Velleman), a blonde haired Caucasian boy with a fixation for style; and
Snout (voiced by Jermaine Woods, uncredited in series 2 for unknown reasons), who resembles an orange-furred, two legged woolly mammoth with a plastic trunk and has a fixation of his own with sprouts. In the episode "Planet Snout", the eponymous planet is revealed to be his home world and the origin of his sprout obsession. It is also revealed that Snout has two nephews called Rocco and Rico. •
Team Kit comprises
Kit (voiced by Telka Donyai), a fair-skinned Japanese girl with blue hair who is very brainy and good at thinking around problems; and
Kaboodle (voiced by Yasmin Garrad), who is basically a furry ball creature with two conical plastic ears/antennae and a springy conical plastic leg. She appears to be less mature than the other racers and often requires emotional support from Kit. She is able to electrify anything after bouncing for long enough.
Question hosts These characters appear in the flash-animated question sequences. None of them speaks, since the questions are all read by the Kerwhizzitor. In many episodes, they, or characters based on their designs, also appear in CGI form in the race world sequences, where they are much bigger than the human contestants. •
Natterjack the Toad presents two questions per episode based on picture recognition. A typical question might involve the teams identifying one of four pictures that is identical to one that Natterjack has drawn. •
Burping Hurbert the Burpasaur presents one question based on visual memory. This typically involves Hurbert eating one of several objects and the teams having to choose which one it was from four alternatives. •
King Pong the Skunk presents "Hunt That Skunk", in which he hides in or behind four objects in rapid succession. Pip, Snout, and Kaboodle have to decide which object was his last hiding place in order to win the Mystery Mod. King Pong's appearance is always heralded by a smelly green vapour. Occasionally he is replaced by his relatives, such as the pirate Long Pong Silver (who smells even worse than King Pong himself), or by Queen Pong or Princess Pong (who both smell very nice and produce fragrant pink vapour, unlike King Pong himself). •
Kat Kool the Cat presents "Kat Kool's Sound Round", a question based on auditory memory. Typically Kat Kool or his band will play a tune, and the teams must then choose which of four alternative tunes matches. ==Episodes==
