In the Night Garden

Tombliboos Eee - Toronto

 

"In the Night Garden... (usually presented with an ellipsis) is a BBC children's television series, aimed at children aged from one to four years old. It is produced by Ragdoll Productions. Andrew Davenport created, wrote, and composed the title theme and incidental music for all 100 episodes. It was produced by Andrew Davenport and Anne Wood, both of whom co-created Teletubbies. The programme is narrated by Derek Jacobi. It is filmed mostly in live action, and features a mix of actors in costumes, plus puppetry and computer animation. The characters are Iggle piggle, Makka Pakka, Upsy daisy, The Tombliboos and many more. They are brightly coloured to capture young children's imagination.

 

The series was first announced in October 2006, and twenty episodes were first broadcast in March 2007. Two series of 100 episodes (in all) were made, with the BBC confirming in 2010 that it would 'not be commissioning another series.' The programme is said by its creators to be designed to relax and entertain its intended audience of one to four-year-olds. One hundred episodes were commissioned by the BBC, with a budget of £14.5 million." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_the_Night_Garden
