Brown Bag Films are to produce The Octonauts, a new 52 x 11min series for Chorion, the rights-holders of Olivia and Noddy In Toyland.
The new preschool series has already been acquired by CBeebies.
The series, comprising 50 x 11-episodes and a 22-minute special, follows a team of heroes who dive into action whenever there is trouble under the sea. In a fleet of aquatic vehicles, they rescue sea creatures, explore new underwater worlds, and often save the day before returning safely home. The three leading characters are Captain Barnacles Bear; Lieutenant Kwazii Kitten, and Medic Peso Penguin.
Based on the books by design team Meomi, the HD CGI animated series is being produced Brown Bag Films and directed by Darragh O’Connell. Executive producers are Emmy Award-winning writer Stephanie Simpson and Chorion’s senior vice president Kurt Mueller
The Octonauts will launch in 2010.
