The Small Talk Diaries
is a 10-part series introducing children to the mini-beasts that can be found in most
back gardens and playgrounds, using a pioneering blend of macro-photography, computer
graphics, animation and humour.
Each episode of the Small Talk Diaries focuses on the patterns of behaviour or character
that different insect species have in common – viewers can meet the Inventors,
the Travellers, the Predators, the Entertainers, and many more.
The series was originally aired on CBBC in March 2008, and proved such a hit with TV
critics and viewers of all ages that BBC2 screened the Diaries from Monday 23 June
– Friday 4 July to mark National Insect Week 2008.
