Believe it or not, these have been in the pipeline since the commissioning of Sooty Series One. I can distinctly remember talking about them when Richard, Alex Skerratt and I wrote our very first episode. (The New Ride - fact fans!!) It was always Richard’s intention to make them and as I used to be a Primary School Teacher - I was always going to do the main writing, but we never set an actual date until last year. Due to Richard’s friendship with the brilliant Gerry Cottle who runs the Circus School down there. I hope so, it really depends on the success of these - fingers crossed!!
