Spanish nets settle on Bradley & Bee

Red Kite’s Bradley & Bee

Spanish broadcasters RTVE and TVC have come onboard the preschool series Bradley & Bee from Scottish production company Red Kite.

The 52×11′ series will air on the Spanish channels in 2019.

Developed by Red Kite Animation and coproducer Barcelona-based Tomavision, the series encourages children to use creative and imaginative problem-solving skills to help them overcome obstacles.

It follows a seven-year-old boy and his five-year-old sister who own a magical pop-up book that, when opened, transports them into a world of adventure via a toy model plane.

It is based on an idea from Scott Downie of Hungry Boy Productions and developed with the support of Creative Scotland and the Catalan Institute of Cultural Enterprises.

Dani López Braña, head of children’s and youth programming and animation coproduction at TV Catalunya/TV3, said: “Bradley & Bee was presented at [crossmedia event] Cartoon 360 in Barcelona and we all loved the concept of children playing together, creating worlds and learning as they play.”

“Bradley & Bee is an excellent fit for RTVE with its active imaginative play and learning philosophy. We evaluated the project in Cartoon 360 and we saw the series potential. It has really charming characters that promote a positive relationship between siblings,” added Yago Fandino Lousa, children’s content manager at RTVE/Clan TVE.
