Following the news, another CBeebies show could make a return to screens.

Bob Golding, the voice behind The Tweenies characters Milo and Max, has revealed the cast have held talks on rebooting the show.

He told The Sun: “I talk about it every day. I mean, I’d love it. I think it would work probably best as an animation now, with the characters, because they’re such strong characters.

“But it’s just a huge logistical process to get it back into a live action show, I think, because there was over 100 people in the team.

“I think it would work now, but possibly on a smaller scale as an animation. But I’d love them to bring it back.

“I think we should petition the country to get them back. Get all the 20-something-year-olds together and say, look, we’re having kids now.”

While talks between the cast have happened, they’ve yet to speak to bosses who own the format.

Bob add: “I mean, obviously amongst us, we’re all saying they should do, because I believe the rights are sitting in someone’s drawer at DreamWorks now.”

The Tweenies also starred Justin Fletcher, Sally Preisig, Emma Weaver, Colleen Daley and Sinead Rushe who all played Bella, Fizz and Jake.

Earlier this month the show – which ran for 390 episodes – celebrated its 25th birthday.
