Invasion of the Little Robots?

I watched Little Robots with my grandson the other morning on CBeebies, after a few minutes as usual he was off playing leaving me to watch it alone.

The theme tune is really catchy it got me hooked. The children’s programme was actually very entertaining and I'm and adult.

Little Robots is a stop-motion animation, produced by Cosgrove Hall Films for Create TV and Film Limited.

The series is based on the book by Mike Brownlow and published by Ragged Bears Publishing.
                                                       
The animation and stories are great, the idea to use metal works and create a wonderful series out of rubbish, sorry I mean scrap metal is quite genius.

The main character is called Tiny voiced by Hayley Carmichael, he repaired himself and his friends who live around a nut and bolt tree. Tiny uses a lever to turn night into day.

The stories are based in a very tidy and clean scrap heap, I mean scrap yard, sorry I mean junkyard.

All the characters are great, with actor voices being use, Lenny Henry and Su Pollard are just two of the well known voices that can be heard in the series.

My favourite robot character has to be Scary the bat voiced by Mike Hayley.

Scary makes me laugh when he tries to scare his friends he usually fails because his voice isn’t frightening enough.

I would definitely recommend this programme, ideal for both children and adults to watch.

My final thought: it’s a great children’s series, funny, witty and it has great animation.

However the question still remains, is Scary the Bat scary enough?

What do you think?
