Premise and production

The show features Billy, a seven-year-old badger, Dara, an eight-year-old fox and a troll called Ruairi, who all live in the park - along with their human friend, May the park keeper.

It was a BBC featured show for August 2010 and rated very highly with over 24% of the audience. It peaked with an audience share of 341,000 on 20 August with an average of 244,000 across the series. It was the second most watched show in its slot on CBeebies during August 2010 and the first show attracted 19,000 viewers on BBC iPlayer alone.

Cast and characters

She lives in a house and likes to smell the flowers. So far, she's the only human character alongside the little boys and girls who varied across the nature settings. She also has a habit of falling asleep whenever she gives Billy a taste of her own medicine and wherever she's first to wake up thanks to her animal friends, mainly Dara. Billy, (voiced and performed by Josh Elwell) a mischievous but friendly and cheerful seven-year-old badger and Ruairi's best friend who loves animals and having fun in the park where he lives.

Dara, (voiced by Alana Kerr Colins and performed by Lesa Gilespie) a plucky eight-year-old fox who is tomboyish and streetwise and likes to make friends with a lot of people. She enjoys outsmarting Billy the table is turned and is a good friend of May. Ruairi, (voiced and performed by Paul Corrie) a fun-loving and wise troll who speaks with a Norwegian accent and is a gentle giant due to a fact he's a biggest puppet character you've ever met.
