Sarah & Duck is a British animated children's television series created by Sarah Gomes Harris and Tim O'Sullivan, [1] and produced by Karrot Animation for the BBC. [2] Though designed as a story-driven animation primarily targeted at 4 to 6 year old children since premiering at the MIPCOM trade show in 2012, [3] the series has a small adult following. [4] [5]

Contents

Sarah & Duck was first broadcast on the UK channel CBeebies on 18 February 2013. [6] A total of 120 episodes have been commissioned, with 40 each for Series 1, 2, and 3. [7] [8] The third series started in October 2016.

Premise

The series follows Sarah, a very kind and polite seven-year-old girl with big eyes, rosy cheeks and a green hat, [9] and her best friend Duck, a mallard. The central theme is the relationship between these two characters and the adventures they have together. CBeebies states that the show has two learning themes: "friendship and imagination" and "problem solving". [10]

Sarah and Duck is an animated series about empathy. Each five-minute story is told with humour and joy, about the friendship of a wide-eyed girl, her pet duck, and their adventures. Sarah and Duck laugh and sing, and play all kinds of games with their friends as they learn to deal with the emotions of childhood.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">His Master's Voice</span> Painting, British record label, and international trademark

His Master's Voice (HMV) was the name of a major British record label created in 1901 by The Gramophone Co. Ltd. The phrase was coined in the late 1890s from the title of a painting by English artist Francis Barraud, which depicted a dog named Nipper listening to a wind-up disc gramophone and tilting his head. In the original, unmodified 1898 painting, the dog was listening to a cylinder phonograph. The painting was also famously used as the trademark and logo of the Victor Talking Machine Company, later known as RCA Victor. The painting was originally offered to James Hough, manager of Edison-Bell in London, but he declined, saying "dogs don't listen to phonographs". Barraud subsequently visited The Gramophone Co. of Maiden Lane in London where the manager William Barry Owen offered to purchase the painting if it were revised to depict their latest Improved Gramophone model. Barraud obliged, and Owen bought the painting from Barraud for £100.
