Programme Sponsorship: Fireman Sam
Show Synopsis
Brave and friendly, Fireman Sam is the hero next door. Sam races to the rescue of his friends and colleagues in various perilous situations in and around the pleasant village of Pontypandy in Wales. Be it a lost kite or cat, Sam and his trusted team of Elvis, Station Officer Steele and Jupiter, their big red fire engine, are always on hand to save the day.
Opportunity Summary
The stories of Fireman Sam's action-packed adventures all combine humour and drama - while communicating a valuable underlying safety message. In 2009, he underwent a modernisation and the later series feature him in CGI animation, giving this traditional programme a fresh look.
Turner Media Innovations and Cartoonito are pleased to be able to offer a sponsorship opportunity around the programme. All sponsorships with us are bespoke, but usually include on-air spots, on-air webdrives and dedicated microsites with engaging content & competitions.
