K9 news

K9 Adventures Running time: 26 x 30 minutesThe loveable BBC TV robot dog created by Academy Award winner Bob Baker (Wallace and Gromit - The Wrong Trousers) is brought to the screen in a series of new adventures in space developed with Jetix Kids. A mix of live action and state-of-the-art CGI and with scripts by Darrell Vickers and Andrew Nicholls (W.I.T.C.H), K-9 is sophisticated, funny and adult in a way that relates to younger viewers, as well as speaking to family audiences. Currently in pre-production with delivery targeted at July 2008.

K-9 Adventures is a forthcoming 26-part comedy/adventure series focusing on the adventures of the robot dog K-9, done in a mixture of computer animation and live action.
Each episode of K-9 Adventures will be 30 minutes long, made by Jetix Europe and London-based distribution outfit Park Entertainment.
The programme will be set in outer space, and Jetix is planning a range of interactive toys to accompany the series. A promotional blurb on Park Entertainment's website says that the main setting will be the Platte, "an old Prairie-class spacecraft" once used for asteroid colonisation. In addition to K-9, the characters will include Slocum, a thirty something "space gypsy" and Djinn, "an overactive computer module in the shape of an attractive young woman".
