ABC Slates Knee High Spies Premiere

Knee High Spies, a new preschool series from Werner Film Productions (Dance Academy), is slated to bow on Australia’s ABC Kids and ABC iview on November 10.

Created by Tim Bain (Kangaroo Beach) and directed by Jack Jameson (Sesame Street), the new series blends puppetry, VFX and live-action performances to deliver a story about a team of toy spies. The Australian Children’s Television Foundation (ACTF) is handling international sales.

Teddy bear Jeremy Buttons, toy dinosaur Deena, piece of goo Squash and tech turtle Moss race against the clock each episode to thwart Silver Paw’s schemes.

Knee High Spies receives major production funding from Screen Australia, the ABC and the ACTF. It is financed in association with VicScreen.
