“Following the amazing reaction at Mipcom earlier this year, it is wonderful to welcome ABC to the Beano family as the first international broadcaster to come on board with Dennis and his friends, with further announcements on other key markets to be made shortly.
“Our amazing group of friends have struck a chord with international territories, and we’re confident that global audiences will love Dennis, Gnasher and new friends JJ and Rubi as much as UK audiences have done. It shows there is an audience yearning for fun and mischievous storytelling, where our group of friends are front and centre of all the action.”
