The "Doctor Who" tardis is heading to BBC pre-school channel CBeebies.
The BBC has announced the next stage in the expansion of its Whoniverse, a pre-school animation version of its big-selling IP, which just wrapped second season under returned showrunner Russell T. Davies.
The show will see the Doctor traveling through time and space for the pre-school audience, solving mysteries and problems alongside their companions and other friends. And, of course, they may come up against one or two challenges on their way, the BBC said.
The BBC has set out a desire to find a “passionate production company” to produce the series, which will run independently from the main show.
Disney, which co-produces the Bad Wolf and BBC Studios-produced main version, will not be involved with the animation.
