HIT Entertainment's “Fireman Sam” series has been pre-sold to Turner Broadcasting and S4C. Turner Broadcasting has picked up the series for its popular preschool channel Cartoonito.


Both broadcasters have acquired the eighth series of Fireman Sam, due to be delivered next spring. It is produced by China-based Xing Xing, which also collaborated on both series six and seven.

Alison Homewood, executive vice president of worldwide programming at HIT Entertainment, says: “We are thrilled that both Cartoonito and S4C remain committed to Fireman Sam and have acquired the new CG-animated series eight. We are confident that their viewers will be gripped by these new episodes which introduce some new faces and locations, along with lots more excitement and adventure.”
