Daisy & Ollie find Finnish home

Daisy & Ollie features the voice of comedian Jason Manford

A Finnish broadcaster has acquired UK animated preschool series Daisy & Ollie from CHF Entertainment.

YLE will air the show, which launched in the UK last November on Turner’s Cartoonito channel, in the summer.

Daisy & Ollie encourages young children to be curious and question the world around them. It returns to Cartoonito on March 26 with for a 13×7′ new season.

Meanwhile, CHF has agreed a deal with distribution and licensing company CLS Media in Russia for it to sell the show on digital broadcast platforms for territories including Russia, the Baltics, Ukraine, Moldova and Central Asia.

Daisy & Ollie is based on an original idea by Helen Brown and developed by CHF Entertainment, with British comedian Jason Manford voicing two of the characters, acting as executive producer and writing many of the scripts.

“We are answering the very real questions that come up every single day, with a touch of dry humour for the mums and dads,” said Manford.
