Fireman Sam S11-14

For the little ones, there are four whole seasons of Fireman Sam now on Showmax, with exciting firefighting adventures and beloved characters that’ll have them cheering for these community heroes.

The show follows a fireman and his fellow firefighters in a little Welsh village called Pontypandy, where they’re called out to save the day in emergencies from pet rescues to a toasted marshmallow starting a forest fire. Along with the fun of fire engines racing to the rescue and kooky characters working together as a team, Fireman Sam also teaches fire safety and how to stay calm in a crisis.

Recommended for ages 3+, the long-running BAFTA-nominated animated series has a 4/5-star rating on Common Sense Media, where they say, “With its fun cast of friends and engaging adventures, the show may remind parents of Bob the Builder – albeit with a Welsh accent and a focus on fire safety instead of construction.”
