DeAKids to broadcast Friends and Heroes in Italy

Children in Italy, and some other Italian speaking areas, will soon be able to see and hear Friends and Heroes in their own language on DeAgostini's new DeAKids channel which began broadcasting on 1st October 2008! "DeAKids is a very exciting new satellite channel with a wide range of programming and we are delighted that Friends and Heroes will soon be part of their schedule!", said Alison Dorricott - Executive Producer. "Broadcasting on Sky throughout Europe, Italian speaking children will be able to enjoy the adventures of Macky and his friends and also hear and understand the Bible stories."

The DeAKids channel is part of the well known Italian publishing group DeAgostini, probably best known in the UK for their Sticker Albums and Part-Work magazines. Friends and Heroes will feature alongside their current programming which includes Garfield, Babar, Justice League and M.I. High. Click the link above to go straight to their website (in Italian)...
