With 39 episodes available to rent or buy in 12 languages, this new service brings the popular TV/DVD series to a huge audience across the globe.

Friends and Heroes is a series of animated adventures set in the first century, bringing the timeless stories of the Bible to life for a new generation. Using a combination of traditional animation and stunning CGI, our stories follow the adventures of two young friends, Macky and Portia, as they fight for justice against the Roman Empire and share the stories of their heroes from the Old and New Testaments. Ideal for all children aged 5-11, the action and adventure in each episode is particularly loved by boys.

Friends and Heroes on Demand can now be streamed and viewed on TV, smartphone, computer or tablet, whenever a viewer wants and wherever an Internet connection can be found.
