A brand new Noddy series will debut on French television.
Noddy, Toyland Detective has been produced by Gaumont Animation in association with DreamWorks Animation Television, and will premiere on France Télévisions' France 5 in spring 2016.
The series will see a revamped version of the Enid Blyton creation go on adventures in Toyland joined by new and old friends, including Big Ears and Bumpy.
Each episode will have Noddy look for clues to mysteries, showing children how to investigate their own world.
The location of Toyland will expand in the series, with new lands including Fable Fields, Animal Acres and Brickabuild introducing different characters to the show.
Noddy, Toyland Detective will also mark the first time that Noddy's car Revs will come alive as the character's sidekick.
Head of Television for DreamWorks Animation Margie Cohn said: "A whole new generation of children gets to meet Noddy and join him on adventures across Toyland.
"Our new series retains everything that made Noddy the global phenomenon he is today, with exciting updates that will encourage a whole new group of fans to become natural investigators of their own world."
In 2012, DreamWorks Animation purchased the rights to hundreds of classic TV and film characters, including Noddy, Postman Pat and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
Noddy, Toyland Detective will consist of 52 11-minute episodes.
