CAKE is gearing up to launch the CBeebies live-action preschool series Biggleton<\/em> at MIPCOM.<\/p>\n Biggleton<\/em> takes place in an imaginary town where a young cast of 5- to 7-year-olds plays out their own version of a grown-up world. The series first aired on CBeebies in 2017.<\/p>\n A young police officer, a gardener, a scientist, a farmer, a hairdresser and a vet are among Biggleton\u2019s residents, whose town environment has been re-created using cardboard and hand-drawn detail. From the Biggleton Obstacle Race to looking after a noisy puppy, their jobs and daily lives explore what it means to be part of a community, whilst inspiring children to role play and stretch their imaginations.<\/p>\n Narrated by Eamonn Holmes (season one) and John Gordon Sinclair (season two), Biggleton<\/em> is developed and produced by BBC Children\u2019s In House Productions. CAKE has international distribution rights, excluding the U.K. and Ireland.<\/p>\n Ed Galton, CCO and managing director at CAKE, said, \u201cBiggleton<\/em> successfully taps into children\u2019s imaginations and their love of playing at being grown-up. We are very excited to be working with the BBC and introducing this much-loved series to the international market.\u201d<\/p>\n Helen Bullough, head of Children\u2019s In House Productions, said, \u201cWe\u2019re delighted that CAKE is spreading the joyful Biggleton<\/em> message of fun, friendship and inclusion. The format allows kids to watch little ones like them, create a world where everyone is welcome and works together, with themes which have a universal message and appeal.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CAKE is gearing up to launch the CBeebies live-action preschool series Biggleton at MIPCOM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1049,"featured_media":17072,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[4899,100,494,4900],"class_list":["post-17071","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-biggleton","tag-cake","tag-cbeebies","tag-mipcom-2019","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
