Lesson plan
Wolf It
Wolf It is a British children's television programme with puppets produced by Kim Kinnie for Scottish Television. It was broadcast on CITV for 4 seasons between 1993 and 1996. The show is a spin off from the Saturday morning television series What's Up Doc? and features Bro and Bro, two English wolves who featured regularly in the aforementioned show. The programme was filmed in and around the Maidstone television studios, where it was also set, with Bro and Bro having set up home in a film vault. The wolves called each other "Bro". Their real names were never heard, as there was always some noise which would mask whatever was being said by any person who was saying their names at the time. The show replaced Rolf's Cartoon Club, and like the previous show, also showed cartoons, all from the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series, which ITV owned the rights to at the time, 2 shorts were shown each episode. Bro and Bro were voiced by Don Austen and John Eccleston. Eccleston was replaced for series 3 onwards of What's Up Doc? by Dave Chapman, though Eccleston continued to perform his character for all episodes of Wolf It! Series 3 and 4 were known as Wolf It: The Nexxxt Generation.
