Product Information

The show features a large cast of colourful characters with unusual names who live in a magical forest scattered with large daisies and brightly coloured flowers. The characters mostly speak short and repetitive phrases and each one has its own special song and dance. The garden is a sunny and colourful environment and the music is jaunty and music box-like.

In the Night Garden... is intended to help children relax and achieve calming relationships with their parents. Producer Anne Wood also states: "We became very aware of the anxiety surrounding the care of young children which manifested itself in all kinds of directions, but the one big subject that came up, again and again, was bedtime. It's the classical time for tension between children who want to stay up and parents who want them to go to bed. So this is a programme about calming things down whereas most children's TV is about getting everything up." [6]

The six 15-minute specials are CGI-animated in Canada by WildBrain Studios, with an initial broadcast deal made with Hop! Channel in Israel.

From 23 April until 10 June 2007, the show took a break from airing on the CBeebies channel although it was still shown on BBC Two. From 11 June 2007 until 28 March 2008, the show aired on the CBeebies channel every day, including weekends, at 6:25pm in the "Bedtime Hour" slot, in addition to earlier 11am showings on BBC Two on weekday mornings. [11] From 29 March until 29 August 2008, In The Night Garden... was removed from its 6:25pm "Bedtime Hour" slot, which resulted in a nationwide fan petition outside the BBC's Television Centre studios asking for the programme to be re-instated to its normal slot. [10] The show returned to the daily "Bedtime Hour" slot at 6.20pm as of 30 August 2008 and began showing the second series (beginning with "Slow Down Everybody") on 1 September 2008. [12] From 3 January until 4 September 2009, the show was moved to a 6:00pm transmission time but was still retained in the “Bedtime Hour” slot. From 5 September 2009 onwards; to this day, the show remains in the 6:20pm slot and is traditionally the last full-length programme of the day before the bedtime story segment.

Upsy Daisy chooses to sing through her megaphone. The Pontipines cover their ears – what loud singing! They complain over the trubliphone, but then Makka Pakka joins in with his trumpet and they make lovely music together. Hello Everybody! brings together four of the most popular pre-school DVDs of the last year into a compendium which features nearly nine and a half hours of fun and frolics from In the Night Garden.

Hello Igglepiggle!, Hello Upsy Daisy!, Hello Makka Pakka! and Hello Tombliboos! make up this collection which is the perfect present for every fan. Each episode starts with a shot of a night sky with the stars appearing, followed by a shot of a child in bed, while the narrator introduces the programme's episode. The scene then cuts to Igglepiggle, in his boat, getting ready to travel to the Night Garden whilst the theme music plays. The camera pans up to the night sky, followed by brightly coloured flowers. Then we see Igglepiggle going to the gazebo to meet his friends. After that, the title appears on a bush and either the Ninky Nonk or the Pinky Ponk appears. One parent petitioner was quoted by The Daily Telegraph commenting: "My four-year-old refused to believe it was bedtime because In the Night Garden... hadn't been on and it was daylight outside.", this is because the show was removed from CBeebies' Bedtime Hour for a while in 2008.

We wanted to explore the difference between being asleep and being awake from a child's point of view: the difference between closing your eyes and pretending to be asleep and closing your eyes and sleeping."

Andrew Davenport stated in an interview with the Guardian that the key inspiration for the series was his own dream world as a child. This started coming into place in 2004 when Davenport created sketches for the characters of Igglepiggle, Upsy Daisy and Makka Pakka. The series would go on to be publicly announced a year later, and filming would eventually start in early 2005. [5]
