According to the associated (fictional) storyline by Michael Morpurgo,they were formed from the last girkder of the Olympic Stadium. Their skins are made of highly polished steel allowing them to reflect the personalities and appearances of the people they meet. Their one eye is a camera and on their heads are yellow lights symbolizing those of a London Taxi.
Wenlock
Wenlock’s name is inspired by Much Wenlock in Shropshire, England, where in 1850 the Wenlock Olympian Society held its first Olympian Games, regarded as an inspiration for the modern Olympic games.The five friendship rings on his wrists correspond to the five Olympic rings, and three points on his head represent the three places on the podium.The pattern on his body symbolises the whole world coming to London,[citation needed] and the shape of his helmet represents the shape of the Olympic Stadium.
Mandeville
Mandeville is named after Stoke Mandeville Hospital in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. In 1948, Stoke Mandeville Hospital organised the first Stoke Mandeville Games, considered to be the precursor to the Paralympics.The three spikes on Mandeville's helmet represent the Paralympic Agitos. He also represents friendship.
