- I heard recently that the company that made the series (and also
- 'Dangermouse', 'Count Duckula', 'Toad of Toad Hall') and many others
- [Cosgrove Hall ] has just recently had to lay off 40 of it's staff due
- to no orders. It seems that US "Animation" (for want of a better
- word) is too readily available over here and hence no one wants to buy
- the their stuff as it's too expensive. ALl the people laid off were
- animators as well.
-
- Unfortunate news for the possibility of a sequel. This news was on
- Radio 4's 'Today' programme about 4 weeks back, so HOPEFULLY the
- situation may have changed, but I doubt it...
