Audrey and Friends is a British animated television series created and directed by David Bennett that ran on Channel 5's both Milkshake! and Shake! blocks in 2002.[1] The series revolves around a teenaged girl name Audrey with her pet dog named Rounball and her friends Meena and Constance (Stan for short) living in a world of the internet, texting and medieval love potions.
The Series
Bennett pitched the show to Channel 5 with a pilot that ended up airing on December 26th, 2000 on the channel's Milkshake! block as a Christmas special.[2] The network then picked it up as a series that lasted for 26 episodes that was distributed by Impossible Television. The show was animated in a mixture of 2D and CGI animation similar to the distributor's other series that aired on the block at the time.[3] After the initial episodes aired the show ended up getting cancelled with no home media release ever made for it.
Findings
For awhile no footage or images from the show were available online as the only evidence of this show's existence came from an IMDb page and footage of a promo for the series. At some point a user discovered some footage of the show from a 2012 showreel from Impossible TV along with a Soundcloud upload of the theme.
On January 3rd, 2023, YouTuber Lucas’s Archive found and uploaded the pilot to his channel. The pilot served as the show's Christmas special with the most notable differences is the different voice cast and Meena's original name being Mona.
On February 22nd, 2023, LMW user LovelyAngel1004 contacted one of the writers Adam Peters via email about the show with him sending scans of the inlays from the 5 fake VHS releases he made with information on each episode, the voice cast and other members of the production team.
On March 5th, 2023, LovelyAngel1004 then contacted Bennett via email only to confirm that he doesn't have any full episodes on hand. He then sent a photo of his old portfolio page with concept art from the series, a couple of days later he sent a WeTransfer containing more artwork and a small clip from the show.
