The show.
Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom is a British preschool children's animated television series. The show was created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker, and produced by Astley Baker Davies and by Entertainment One UK. Many of the voice actors who worked on Peppa Pig have lent their voices to the show; these include John Sparkes, Sarah Ann Kennedy, David Rintoul and David Graham. The music is composed, conducted, and produced by Julian Nott, who is noted for his Wallace and Gromit, Bing and Peppa Pig scores. Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom is the third show to be produced by Astley Baker Davies.
our take
“Ben and Holly has witty writing and the elf-fairy dynamic is genuinely funny. It scores an F because the magic-goes-wrong premise creates chaotic situations in nearly every episode, the pacing is quick with frequent slapstick, and the adult characters model reactive rather than thoughtful behavior.”
