TIMMY'S
CHRISTMAS SURPRISE
2011
/ 30mins special
"He's
the little lamb with a lot to learn..."
Timmy is a frisky young lamb who attends a
daily Nursery in a big bright barn
building, and every day is action-packed and
full of surprises as he and his
animal pals learn about the wide world around
them. Their grown-up teachers,
Harriet Heron and Osbourne Owl guide them
through the ups and downs
of life and learning, with lots of fun, frolics,
tears and tantrums on the way.
It's a simple premise, then, for Aardman Animation's
first ever preschool
production. But the series is triumphant in
its execution. "Timmy Time" is
set in a colourful nursery landscape, and the animals
communicate via an
exchange of brilliant bleats and oinks and quacks.
They laugh and cajole,
they sparr and compete, quibble and quarrel
- just like real kids. But what
ever happens, they're always friends again, come
the end of the day.
There's some super character work on display
here - each of the youngsters
has their own particular affectation or foible
- and Timmy's big grinning
bleat is just super. Once you throw in Mike
Stobbie's bouncy singalong
theme
tune, well, you have a completely perfect preschool toon...
Homespun
"Timmy Time" is actually a spin-off
from a spin-off. Young Timmy first stole
the show as a secondary character in Aardman's
multi-award winning series
"Shaun the Sheep", which in turn was
derived from Shaun's co-starring role
in the Academy Award winning Wallace & Gromit film
A Close Shave.
» The
series was created and produced by Jackie Cockle (Bob
the Builder,
Pingu,
Cockleshell Bay, Oakie
Doke, Brambly Hedge,
and many more...)
» Timmy
and his pals take a "Walking Bus" to school, during the
credits.
They form a line, with
Osbourne Owl up front and Harriet Heron minding
their rear, and march off
in time to the show's theme tune....
