Dr Otter

Dr Otter is a stop-motion animated series created & written by David Bonner and produced by Ealing Animation and Cosgrove Hall. It was shown on CBBC during 2001. There were 3 seasons in all.

Plot

Dr Melvn P Otter is the GP for a small group of animals. He lives in a delightful riverside house with his wife, Raylee and his faithful assistant, Flybread (a cat). Each episode, Dr Otter is called upon to tend his little catchment area, which include Mrs Canny Body, Dunston the mole and the Rabbit family, as well as a newt called Lucky.

Characters

As well being voiced by Rob Rackstraw and Jan Francis, the other characters are voiced by Maria Darling and Jimmy Hibbert.

Themes

Dr Otter is a very gentle medical children's programme that focuses far more on Flybread's attitude and learning about the community, and each episode deals with a minor moral dilemma, rather than a medical one!

DVD

Dr Otter was released on Region 2 And Region 4 DVD on 10 January 2005.
