Teacup Travels

TEACUP TRAVELS: DISCOVERY THROUGH ADVENTURE.

Since the launch of Teacup Travels in 2015 on BBC’s channel CBeebies, Great Aunt Lizzie has been around the world and back again, wooing audiences with her spectacular stories of long ago and far away. And whether you’re five or sixty-five, Lizzie weaves a tale so well you believe you’re really there with Charlotte, Elliot and Lokesh trekking across the ancient world. Imagine if every time you visited Great Aunt Lizzie on your way home from school, she sent you off on an adventure back into the mists of time.

Sipping tea, Charlotte, Elliot and Lokesh listen as Lizzie spins another yarn, her words so enchanting they can’t help imagining themselves long ago and far away. And as their imaginations take flight, the ancient world springs to life in storybook colours and the young adventurers stride out into the world as it used to be; among the temples of Ancient Greece, the mountains of Edo Japan, the watery world of the Vikings and the forgotten cities of the Mayan Empire they run into hapless aristocrats, meditating monks, bumptious warriors and old retired hunters selling street food.

Teacup Travels is a unique blend of fictional adventure, bringing history to life for 4 to 6-year olds the show was an immediate hit attracting UK preschool audiences in excess of half a million and remaining in the top ten children’s programmes for the much of its first run. After its 2016 launch in Australia, this popular show was also at number one down-under .
