Wiggly Park was a British BBC children's television animated cartoon which was produced in 1997 and shown in 1998. Originally a children's radio programme on BBC Radio 5, the characters were voiced by British actors Andrew Sachs and Kate Sachs.
The original radio show was broadcast as a segment in the weekday morning children's programme '12345' presented by 'Ian' on BBC Radio 5.
The show revolved around the adventures of six friends in their home, a large town park. The characters included an earthworm named E.W., a slug named Nifty (who was characterised as being rather slow and a bit dim), a snail called Shelly, (who was French and female) Moggy the caterpillar who was very greedy, Buzz the bee, and a tortoise named Thera who was very old.
Repeats of the CBBC series were later repeated on Nick Jr, Tiny Pop and Tiny Living in the early 2000s.
