The Lampies is a British 2000–2002 animated children's television series, created by David Bonner and remains with a mix of 2D and 3D animation.
Created by David Bonner in conjunction with Uli Meyer Animation Studios and music by Mcasso Music, there are fifty eleven-minute episodes that were originally commissioned by the BBC.[citation needed] Financial issues caused the creative and business drive to falter, and all momentum was lost.[citation needed] In 2003 The Lampies IP was bought from the receiver by a private investor. Surviving episodes of The Lampies remain available on magnetic VHS tape and DVD in the United Kingdom.
Storyline[]
A group of sprite-like power engineers maintain and defend the lamp post H032 which is the critical area of the entire Lighting Network. The Roons, who live in the sewers below, are the creatures who plan to threaten the Lighting Network due to their strong dislike of light. Sewer rats can still also prove to be a pest to the Lampies.
