Tiddler on Showmax
12 February 2025

Tiddler (2024)

Adapted from the bestselling picture book by Julia Donaldson and illustrator Axel Scheffler, Tiddler tells the story of a little fish with a big imagination who gets lost in the deep, wide ocean – until he’s saved by his own storytelling.

From the BBC and multi-Oscar-nominated producers Magic Light Pictures, Tiddler is co-directed by South African Alex Bain and narrated by Emmy winner Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso’s Rebecca Welton). 

Tiddler was the 9th most watched title on BBC on Christmas Day, attracting over three million live viewers and earning five-star reviews from the likes of Daily Telegraph, calling it “a prize catch … precision-tooled to enchant children.”
