Friends and Heroes - the gift of knowledge

BBC2 has agreed a new broadcast slot for the Friends and Heroes series.





Friends and Heroes is a cartoon series that seeks to "entertain, educate and inform, introducing a new generation, whatever their faith, to the stories of the Old and New Testament."

Concerned that children today do not lose the shared cultural memory that has informed our collective culture, moral codes and religion for generations, the series, also available on DVD, aims to "empower children to listen to their conscience and to make good decisions about respect, kindness, compassion, faith and tolerance, based on knowledge and not ignorance".

Any idea when BBC2 is planning to show the series? I couldn't find any reference to it on their website since March.
