About this deal

The characters of Jake - the orange skinned Tweenie - and Doodles the red dog were played by Justin Fletcher. The Tweenies have won several awards over the years, including a BAFTA Children’s Award for Best Pre-School Live Action in 2001. The show has also been nominated for several other awards, including a Royal Television Society Award and an International Emmy. Conclusion: The enduring popularity of the Tweenies

Gender-Equal Ensemble: The Tweenies consist of two girls (Bella and Fizz) and two boys (Jake and Milo). There is a male and a female member of staff at the playgroup (Max and Judy respectively) and male dog Doodles is eventually joined by the female Izzles. The Mission Darts Sabre range is a popular choice as they combine the lightness and strength of polycarbonate with the flight-grip of aluminium shafts. A Sabre dart stem is made from a strong polycarbonate material, but also feature an aluminium core and fixed top which helps enhance the grip of the flight. If you have chosen the Express Courier option, we take every effort to ensure your items leave within 24 hours. However, during the busy season, this guarantee has to be extended to within 48 hours. From 1999 until 2006, various books were released from Tweenies, based on the episodes that were mostly aired. There were also annuals that were released from 2001 to 2006 and other books, based on each character from Tweenies. Aesop Amnesia: Usually concerning the main cast, due to situations calling for some kind of conflict.The Tweenies each have their own unique personalities, which are designed to help children learn how to interact with others. Jake is confident and outgoing, Fizz is bubbly and energetic, Milo is mischievous but caring, and Bella is shy and sensitive. Together, they form a diverse group of friends who learn important life lessons through their adventures. How were the Tweenies created? In December 2000, the Tweenies starred in their own dedicated special of the series which featured more of their singles like Do The Lollipop and Have Fun Go Mad!. This episode was later released on VHS and DVD as Music is Pop-a-Rooney! in July 2002, with new wrap-around segments recorded in the Playgroup.

Tweenies is a British children's animatronic puppet series which debuted in 1998. Like other children's shows in rotation, it aimed to entertain as well as educate children about various life and social skills using songs, stories and the like. However, unlike some of its contemporaries, the characters spoke in a discernable language and often directly interacted with the "outside world". Darts stems come in a variety of materials, types and lengths. Dart shafts are made from nylon, polycarbonate and aluminium. Dart shafts made of nylon or plastic are more common as they are a cheaper option, but as a result are less durable than other materials available and will need to be replaced more often. A dart shaft made of aluminium can be more expensive but will last much longer and will be less likely to be damaged during play. Four-Temperament Ensemble: The four Tweenies map up to each of the four temperaments rather neatly:

What are the Tweenies’ personalities like?

Good Angel, Bad Angel: In one episode, Bella drives her friends away by getting angry at them for minor occurrences while she is trying to build a tent behind a curtain. A 'shoulder devil' version of herself appears, but then begins to lecture them on why they are not a Tweenie, but rather, a Meanie, complete with a short musical number. Doodles (operated by Alan Riley and John Tobias; voiced by Justin Fletcher in the UK, James Rankin in the US) is a red and yellow male dog. Doodles is a very friendly and calm dog. His favourite color is yellow. His voice is based on Scooby-Doo's voice. He loves going for walks with Max and can often be seen looking out for Jake. The programme is set in a nursery in England attended by the four Tweenies themselves: Jake, Fizz, Milo and Bella. They are in the care of two adults, Max and Judy, and two dogs, Doodles and Izzles. Judy (operated by Simon Grover/Sinead Rushe (outside); voiced by Sinead Rushe in the UK, Caroly Larson in the US) is a green-skinned woman who is the other of the playgroup managers. She speaks with a Northern Irish accent. She loves reading, gardening and being creative.

Everyone Went to School Together: Bella reveals in Being Really Old that her grandmother and Max went to school together. Max (operated by Simon Grover/Matthew Lyons (some episodes); voiced by Bob Golding in the UK, James Rankin in the US) is a pink-skinned, middle-aged man who is one of the two managers of the playgroup of the Tweenies. He speaks with a Darlington accent. He loves animals, trains and exploring the outside world. In the US dub, News Time is called "Circle Time", which is the term most often used in American kindergarten classes. Telly Time is also called "Video Time", most likely because it looks more like a computer than it does a TV anyway (especially in the later seasons).Fizz is the yellow Tweenie, and she is the only female in the group. She is a bubbly and energetic character who loves to dance and perform. Fizz is always up for a challenge and enjoys trying new things. She is known for her yellow hair, which she wears in pigtails. Milo: The purple Tweenie When they were dressed for the Ugly Bug Ball, Judy announced Doodles was dressed as a Beetle, to which Doodles replied Hey, Jude. He has also done some pantomimes in the past, playing the character Buttons in Cinderella at the Capitol Theatre in Horsham as well as Josh the Jester in the pantomime Sleeping Beauty at The Hexagon theatre in Reading.

Bella is the orange Tweenie, and she is the youngest of the group. She is a shy and sensitive character who loves to read books and play with her toys. Bella is always looking for new friends and is very loyal to those she considers her friends. She is known for her orange hair, which she wears in pigtails. What are the Tweenies’ personalities like? Breaking the Fourth Wall: The gang did this on occasion by introducing themselves to camera and the like. In December 2001, a follow-up show titled Tweenies Live! The Christmas Present was presented at the Royal Albert Hall for the Christmas period, and was later given a wide arena tour in December 2003-January 2004, where Izzles joined the cast. A recording of the 2001 version was released on VHS in November 2002 and was later released on DVD in November 2006 as part of the Tweenies: The Ultimate Christmas Collection DVD compilation. The most recent tour - Top of the Tots, toured the UK in Early 2009 to celebrate the programme's 10th anniversary. The fifth tour - The Enchanted Toyshop toured the UK in the Spring and Summer of 2007. It was the first Tweenies live tour to be solely produced by BBC Worldwide and the first to be shown in theatres instead of arenas.Potty Emergency: There was one episode where the gang unwittingly tied themselves to each other with this being an unfortunate side effect. Mission believes that darts is more than a sport: it is a way of life. They take inspiration from all around the world to create unique products, designed to improve every player’s performance and enjoyment. Mission Darts carries a wide range of darts products for all levels of players The Tweenies have remained a popular children’s television show for over 20 years. Their unique personalities and educational content have made them a beloved part of many children’s childhoods. Despite some controversy over the years, the Tweenies continue to be a positive influence on children’s television. References: Where to learn more about the Tweenies The Tweenies were created by Will Brenton and Iain Lauchlan, who also created the popular children’s show "The Playdays". The idea for the Tweenies came from their desire to create a show that would help children develop their social and emotional skills. The characters were designed to be relatable to children and to reflect their interests and experiences. What is the Tweenies’ show about? When the show was redubbed in America, it removed all references to its British environment and inserted Americanisms instead. Since the show was dubbed into many different languages, this most likely happened with their dubs as well, but the American edition is most egregious due to treating their audience like goldfish.
