Overview
The Lingo Show is a British flash animated children's television series created by Nicole Seymour, produced by the BBC and animated by Dinamo Productions for BBC's CBeebies channel and programming block. The characters and many other elements were designed by Kate Sullivan. The show, which combines flash animation with live-action footage, is designed to introduce preschool kids to new languages. The programme, which ran for 2 series totalling 30 episodes, initially began as an interactive minisite on the CBeebies website, aired on CBeebies between 2012 and 2013.
Plot
The series revolves around a show bug host named Lingo and his crew of bugs, who each specialize in a different language. At the request of children, he travels across the world to perform a Big Bug Show using one of his performers. In each episode, the chosen performer searches around for props required for their show, as they introduce objects in their language, before they bring them back to Lingo so they can perform the show for the delighted preschool children.
There were also episodes which showed each bug's three best Big Bug Shows (their "Buggy Best Three", as Lingo says), and there would be one for each bug, in which, the bugs will teach the audience how the numbers one, two and three are said in their respective languages via song.
