The Tweenies, Bella, Fizz, Jake and Milo

To enable you to maximise the Tweenies promotion we supply a line-art pack, containing all the information you require to create your own Tweenies publicity material.

Our Equity Trained Tweenies Character Artistes perform 5 times a day (usually 4 x 40 minutes and 1 x 30 minutes). This ensures that the public are regularly entertained and there is a buzz of anticipation awaiting each appearance of Tweenies.

We supply an experienced Road Manager to dress and ‘mind’ the Tweenies character; this person can also perform as-hoc promotional duties for you.

The team (Road Manager and Tweenies Character) are your representatives for the day and accordingly will be a positive reflection to your staff and the public.

Our Operations Manger will liaise with the venue prior to the day ensuring that the whole day is well planned and reduce the risk of any last minute surprises.



Dance Routines with Character

Some celebrity characters can perform a dance routine to their signature music, providing even more entertainment for children and families.

The Tweenies is a television programme aimed at young children, broadcast on the BBC. The programme is set in a nursery attended by the four Tweenies themselves: Milo, Jake, Bella and Fizz. They are supplemented by two adults, Max and Judy, and two dogs, Doodles and Izzles.

The original prototypes for the Tweenies characters were designed by Sally Preseig of Mimics Productions; they were later re-scaled into two sizes for the characters shown on the series. In addition, Sally also designed the character costumes and was co-constructor/developer for the Tweenies' full-size puppets. The costume fabric comes from the US and was imported and dyed into their present colours; it is about the same thickness as fleece jumpers. [1]

The Tweenies are a production of Tell-Tale Productions (now owned by Entertainment Rights) in association with the BBC. Animation for the show was produced by A Productions, an animation studio based in Bristol, England, with Ealing Animation providing some animation in a few early episodes. Computer animation for the series was provided by Clockwork Digital, with Ben Mars animating Mungo, the computer creature who appears in some later episodes.

The show includes a 'Tweenie Clock', with five circular lights arranged in a pentagonal shape with the lights denoting 'news time' (orange), 'messy time' (blue: art, sticking, painting), 'song time' (yellow: generally nursery rhymes or children's classics), 'telly time' (green; in some later episodes, this is also used when they use the computer) and 'story time' (red). 'Surprise Time' is a special time determined when all five lights glow. A button at the centre of the clock is pressed to select the activity that will be undertaken next.

It is currently being shown on CBeebies, the BBC's children's channel for young children.

Like a number of other CBeebies programmes, a live stage version of the show has toured in the UK. The newest tour, Enchanted Toyshop, toured the British Isles during 2007. Between 2003 and 2006, there was also a live version of The Tweenies shown regularly at Alton Towers in the Cred Street section aimed at younger children.

In 2000, The Tweenies won two awards: Best Pre-School Educational Programme (Royal Television Society) and Best Live Action Pre-School Programme (BAFTA Awards).

The Tweenies were created by Will Brenton and Iain Lauchlan, a pair with a track record of being involoved in BBC children's programming. Iain Lauchlan was a presenter on Play School, Fingermouse and Playdays, meeting Brenton, a director, writer and also a presenter, during the latter. Together they started producing two of the Playdays strands before forming their own production companies Tell-Tale Productions and, more recently, Wish Films.

They also created The Fun Song Factory, Boo!, BB3B!, Jim Jam and Sunny, Basil Hair The Squirrel and Entertainment Right's The Magical Live of Toys.
