London, April 13th, 2016 – Noddy, Toyland Detective, a brand new series from DreamWorks Animation, will have its UK premiere on Channel 5’s Milkshake on Monday, 18th April at 7:50 am.

Created by Enid Blyton in 1949, Noddy is one of the most beloved UK children’s characters, having entertained families for generations with stories set in the colourful world of Toyland. DreamWorks’ Noddy, Toyland Detective reimagines Noddy in the new role of investigator; exploring mysteries and searching for clues in Toyland while encouraging viewers to explore and make discoveries in their own world. Using his trusty tablet, Noddy sets out to answer the big questions of who, what, when, where, why and how every time he opens a new case. Enthusiastic and inquisitive, Noddy is joined by friends new and familiar including his iconic car as well as Big Ears and Bumpy. The voice of Noddy is provided by Louis Ashbourne Serkis in his first leading voice role.
“Noddy is a true British icon and we’re delighted to include Noddy, Toyland Detective, in the Milkshake schedule. This beautifully animated series featuring a new-look Noddy and his friends is sure to be a hit with our young audience,” said Clair Robinson, Acting Head of Children’s, Channel 5.
