We have just received the first of the two awards presented to Alison and David Dorricott, the show's Executive Producers, at the USA's National Religious Broadcasters Annual Convention. The award is for: Best Ministry Website
"This award honors the Internet website of a ministry or content producer that shows excellence in design and content, is creative in presentation, and is helping fulfill the ministry’s mission."
We are delighted to announce that our North American Online Store is now stocked with Friends and Heroes NTSC DVDs. This marks the release of Series 2 and 3 for that continent!
These DVDs are the International Versions with ten fully dramatised language soundtracks in: Arabic; Chinese (Mandarin); English (in Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound); English (with Audio Descriptions); French; German; Hindi/Urdu; Korean; Portuguese (Brazilian); Russian and Spanish (South American). This makes the DVDs ideal for many ethnic groups and also for language teaching by viewing subtitles in any of the languages listed.
As well as the single DVDs, you can also purchase the Series 1 and 2 Packs containing all 13 Episodes in each series in an easy-to-store slip-case.
The final part of this release is the new Licence and Lesson Packs which provide any easy and convenient way for organisations like Churches and Schools to obtain a lifetime Public Display Licence and be given a FREE CD-ROM containing two sets of Lesson Plans - one for Children's Ministry and one for School use.

As you can read in an earlier news item, Good TV began broadcasting Series 1 in May 2008 and Series 2 in September 2009. We are now pleased to announce that the show has been so well received by the audience there that they have signed-up to broadcast Series 3 too! We will announce the commencement of the broadcasts here when we have the date.
"Initial reactions in North America make it clear that Friends and Heroes has the potential to be one of the major animation productions of recent times"
