Entertainment One has announced that “Ricky Zoom” will air on Nick Jr. and Channel 5’s pre-school programming block, Milkshake!

“The U.K. is an integral part of the international rollout of Ricky Zoom,” says Monica Candiani, executive vice president international content sales, family and brands, eOne. “Nick Jr. and Milkshake! have been our partners for 15 years with ‘Peppa Pig’ and 10 years of Ben & Holly’s Little Kingdom and have a strong reputation for delivering top-tier programming in this crucial market. These new broadcast partnerships reflect our commitment to reaching audiences on the very best platforms, and we’re confident that the show’s themes of vehicles, adventure and teamwork will resonate strongly with British preschoolers.”
