Olobob Top confirmed for second series

Animated preschool show back on CBeebies following success of first series.

A second series of animated preschool show Olobob Top has begun to air on CBeebies.

Following the success of the first series on channels around the world – including CBeebies (UK), ABC (Australia), S4C (Wales), YLE (Finland), Disney (Japan), and EBS (South Korea) – Beakus and Olobob Top Ltd have produced a further 26 episodes of the five-minute show which follows the surreal stories of three adventurous characters Tib, Lalloo and Bobble in the Olobob Forest.

The first series rated in the top ten shows on CBeebies no less than five times in its first six weeks of broadcast and has been a mainstay on the channel ever since.

It also performed above its average slot viewership on both YLE and ABC.

“CBeebies are delighted to welcome our audience back to the quirky and unique world of Olobob Top,” said the channel’s Nick Hall. “With creative play at its heart, the many adventures of Tib, Lalloo and Bobble, alongside their forest full of friends, are sure to fuel the imagination of our viewers.

“An acting masterclass by narrator Stephen Mangan ties everything together and will keep parents and caregivers returning to the always-inventive Olobob Forest.”

Olobob Top is published in a series of activity and board books by Bloomsbury with product rights managed by Those Licensing People, TV rights by Cake Entertainment and music published by Sony ATV.
