"The series has already gone down well overseas" BBC News

The Series was then broadcast on BBC2 during the Autumn Term, 2007

For those who missed the broadcasts, the Series has now been released on DVD - visit http://ukstore.friendsandheroes.com for more details.

Based in a fascinating and turbulent period of history - the First Century AD - Friends and Heroes places children’s action-adventure stories within a vivid historical context. It will entertain, educate and inform the audience, introducing a new generation, whatever their faith, to the stories of the Old and New Testament. By setting the Bible stories in a living context, amongst the people who kept them alive as they passed them on ‘down the line’ to their own children, the series has a very a natural flow and pace.
