The “Thunderbirds Are Go!” voice cast is led by Rosamund Pike (“The World’s End”) who plays the unflappable aristocrat Lady Penelope, while original “Thunderbirds” veteran David Graham is reprising his role as her chauffeur, Parker. Inventor Brains will be voiced by Kayvan Novak (“Fonejacker”), and John Tracy will be played by Thomas Brodie-Sangster (“Game of Thrones”). The voice cast also includes Rasmus Hardiker, David Menkin, Sandra Dickinson, Adjoa Andoh and Andres Williams.

Many other fascinating characters also live there. Emmy is very enthusiastic about life, and she enjoys lots of happy times with her friends. Isi by Edebe Audiovisual Licensing, Spain Isi (short for ‘Isadora’) is a very curious 8-years old girl who lives with her rock-and-roll Dad, her stressed-out Mom, a brother who thinks he's a superhero, an eccentric grandfather inventor and a robot. All in all, they add up to an unusual, to say the least, urban working-class family – the Somi’s – living in a neighbourhood on the outskirts of a city that could be anywhere in the world. It’s a family that breaks stereotypes, with offbeat characters and personal hobbies that generate all sorts of conflicts and unexpected situations to which young viewers can easily relate. They Somis are confronted with personal conflicts, economic crises and social conventions and, in their own outlandish way, they solve problems successfully... or almost. The series aims to address relevant issues in today's society from a comical, entertaining and slightly irreverent perspective. Between laughs and absurdity, but with an underlying sensitivity, Isi and her family face issues such as disability, old age, family relationships, poverty, solidarity, tolerance and environmental good practices. And along the way, they can't help but learn some valuable life lessons. Krakatoa by QB9 Entertainment & Nuts Studios, Argentina Krakatoa is a animation tv series 12 x 5' 2,5D "Krakatoa is fire and noise. Krakatoa is rock and scream. Krakatoa is wind and song.

But in one of the lower districts of the city will emerge an unexpected rock revolution. A group of children will find the courage to créate a rock band: Krakatoa Main characters: Coco, Bruno, Selma, Alan.

Each episode revolves around the animal and environmental cases undertaken by Zak, a gifted 10- year-old orphan assisted his 2 best friends Boomba, a delusional Hollywood pygmy bear, and Poley, a puberty stricken humanoid Lion, with an array of antagonists challenging their objectives, most notably, Pape Joe’s granddaughter, Shirlee, an ingenious 6 year old socialite aided by her genetically enhanced pet Pekingese dog, Tysin.
