BBC picks up The Koala Brothers for Poland, Africa and Asia-Pacific

CBeebies was the first broadcaster to acquire The Koala Brothers for the UK market when Spellbound started production in 2002.

CBeebies will start broadcasting the hit pre-school series on the Cyfrowy Polsat platform in Poland later this year alongside series such as In the Night Garden, Numberjacks and Toddworld. The Koala Brothers is already licensed in Poland to state broadcaster TVP.

The Koala Brothers will also get its first airing across the whole of Africa on CBeebies, which will be available via MultiChoice's DStv platform from September 1. In Asia Pacific, CBeebies will screen the series in Hong Kong and Singapore alongside other children’s favourites such as Teletubbies and The Roly Mo Show.
