A new series of animated action adventure series focusing on Bible stories is currently running on BBC2. Friends and Heroes, the UK-produced cartoon, aims to bring Bible stories from both the Old and New Testaments to a new generation of children (6-10 years) who may never have heard them before, with thirteen episodes running from September to December. They feature state-of-the-art 2D and 3D animation to tell the story of two first-century young people, Macky and Portia, who meet when they live in Roman-occupied Alexandria. Their idealism and friendship leads them across the ancient world from the besieged city of Jerusalem to Rome.
The series has been produced to the highest standards of biblical integrity with Revd Stephen Gaukroger, Senior Minister at Gold Hill Baptist Church, as senior biblical advisor. It has also been endorsed by members of the Catholic Church’s Bishops’ Council for use in Catholic schools. Scheduling details and further information found here.
