Check out Davies’s full response below:
“I just wanted the aesthetic of the 1950s.
There’s something a bit dumb about the robots.
If they’d been very modern AI robots, they would have looked a bit too stupid.
So they’ve got a bit of old-fashionedness.
They’ve almost got an old-fashioned courtesy about them, and there’s almost a politeness about them.
So that made me think there should be something a bit retro about them.

So once you start thinking of that, once you start thinking of robots.
And I wanted them to have great big laser guns.
I love those laser guns.
An old-fashionedness just creeped into it and it just became the 1950s.
I love it.”
