Bob’s back! Or at least his animated alter ego is after Sky ordered new episodes of the beloved feline’s cartoon.
Street Cat Bob’s ‘toon turn graced The Big Issue cover last April when five episodes were released. Now a further 20 are on the way.
The Shooting Script Films/King Rollo films production attracted the attention of Sky in its original run and Bob’s new 90-second episodes, aimed at pre-schoolers, will form part of their subscriber-only content on the Sky Kids app.
The news has been a big hit with Bobites online. Sheila Urquhart said: “Fabulous news!! This series is so well done.”
Elizabeth Reardon added: “Very sweet and cheeky just like Bob! Kids will love it.”
Bob and owner James Bowen have already made a splash in the media world with their series of hit bestseller books.
