New licensees include TDP/Aykroyds, which will develop nightwear and underwear; Roy Lowe & Sons, which will commercialize socks; Character World for home textile; and PMS for gift products in the amusement sector.

Templar will also have 40 new TV tie-in books published over the next three years. Many more categories are in discussion for a launch in 2021.

“‘Gigantosaurus’ is a brand with great appeal built on a hugely successful book, which has inspired award-winning and top-rated content, widely available on many platforms, including pay TV, FTA, SVOD & digital media,” says Trudi Hayward, co-founder, Brand-Ward Service. “Securing multiple platforms is prerequisite nowadays if you want to achieve the necessary exposure.”
