Balamory

On 17 September 2024, it was announced that the show will return for two new series in 2026 on CBeebies including bringing back old characters from the past.

All characters, with the exception of Miss Hoolie, sing the Coloured House song one at a time per episode.

A typical episode follows this general plan: The opening credits show the town of "Balamory" with its brightly coloured houses.

Miss Hoolie breaks the fourth wall and addresses the audience directly down the camera lens in every episode.

Miss Hoolie and the main character provide a summary of the story at each point, and a final recap at the end of the episode.

This episode also featured Greg Hemphill (Julie Wilson Nimmo's husband in real life) and John Altman, who plays Nick Cotton in the BBC soap opera EastEnders.

Such examples include Nickelodeon in Australia, RTÉ in Ireland, BBC Kids in Canada, and TVB in Hong Kong.

BBC Worldwide released many VHS and DVDs of the series in United Kingdom, which each focus on a specific character or theme.

[10] On 30 April 2005, the BBC announced that it would not order another season of the series, citing they wanted to experiment and create more new programme ideas.

Miles Jupp, who played Archie, stated that his role caused problems with his comedy career, with parents assuming his routines were age-appropriate and permitting their children to attend.

[13] Andrew Agnew, who played PC Plum, went on to work for Tattiemoon Productions, and direct the children's TV show Me Too!

On 30 August 2022, Andrew and Julie made an appearance on ITV's This Morning for the show's 20th anniversary year and said they would love to work on a new series.

The show has seen two live tours that were held in Arenas across the United Kingdom, being co-productions with BBC Worldwide and DC Entertainment.
