The series we worked on in 2007 has aired on CBBC (25th Feb 08, 4:30pm). The series was conceived by BBC assistant producer Phil Cooper. We worked with the BBC to realise the idea, with Greg designing the series, Myles voicing and singing for some of the characters, and the pair of us writing the music, co-writing the episodes and directing the excellent animation team until it was all in the can just before Christmas.

CBBC's Pedro and Frankensheep are screening as part of the official programme at Annecy 2008. The episode selected is 'Fool Moon' which sees Pedro and Frank fiddling with the tides with disastrous consequences. The series was created by Phil Cooper at the BBC. We directed and co-wrote the episodes, with Greg designing the look, and me doing the voices of Frank and Hugo. We also wrote the music. Watch an episode on YouTube now or nine of the ten at CBBC.

With the fourth season of Doctor Who drawing to a close, I would just like to point out that this series was even more special because I was in it. Sort of. In Steven Moffat's opening episode about the library, the little girl is watching a cartoon - Pedro and Frankensheep - as designed by Greg and as voiced by me (Frank)!
There was Pedro full screen replacing the Doctor's image - nice! And there was Frank's voice chuntering away in the background. So in a very real sense I am a prime time actor and writer. Sort of.
