Tabby McTat (2023)

Adapted from the bestselling Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler picture book, Tabby McTat is about the warm and wonderful friendship between a musical cat and a talented busker called Fred. One day when chasing a thief, Fred falls and breaks his leg and is whisked away in an ambulance. What will become of the busker’s cat, left alone on the streets of London?

Directed by South Africans Sarah Scrimgeour and Jac Hamman (Superworm), Tabby McTat stars BAFTA nominees Rob Brydon (Gavin and Stacey) and Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísú (Gangs of London) as Fred and Tabby, with Critics Choice Super nominee Jodie Whittaker (Doctor Who) as the narrator.

Produced by Magic Light Pictures (The Gruffalo, Snail and the Whale, Zog), Tabby McTat was one of the 10 most-watched shows on TV in England on Christmas Day 2023. It was the most-watched animated feature from UK broadcasters across the festive period, attracting over 8.6m viewers, with The Daily Telegraph hailing it as “pretty much purrfect.”

Earlier this year, Tabby McTat won the Animation: Preschool category at the BANFF World Media Festival and the Audience Award at the New York International Children’s Film Festival. It’s also been nominated for an International Emmy Award, a Royal Television Society Award and a Rose d’Or Award this year.
