The Tweenies is a television programme aimed at children, broadcast on the BBC. The programme is set a daycare centre, and the four Tweenies themselves are Milo and Jake (both boys) and Bella and Fizz (both girls), played by actors inside foam rubber suits in a style reminiscent of the Teletubbies, only geared towards a slightly older audience. The regular cast includes two adults, Max and Judy, and two dogs, Doodles and (less frequently) Izzles, all in similar suits.
A "Tweenie Clock", with five circlular lights arranged in a pentagonal shape with the lights denoting "news time" (orange), "messy time" (red: art, sticking, painting), "song time" (yellow: generally nursery rhymes or childrens' classics), "telly time" (green) and "story time" (blue). A button next to the clock is pressed to select the activty that will be undertaken next.
It has also been shown in the U.S. on the cable channel Noggin since mid-2004, however, it is shown intermittently (not every day) at an extremely early morning hour (ranging from 6am on the east coast to 3am on the west coast). Like with the more well-known across-the-Atlantic transplant of Bob the Builder, the episodes are re-dubbed with American-accented voices to make them easier for American children to follow and words specific to British English are changed (for example, "telly time" is renamed "video time").
