Igam Ogam is an Welsh pre-school stop motion animated television series created by Andrew Offiler.
The series takes place on a “higgledy-piggledy” prehistoric planet and follows the antics of a little mischievous cave girl called Igam Ogam and her friends.
The first series was produced by the Welsh animation company Calon in 2009. After its liquidation the company resurfaced as part of the Irish production house Telegael, which produced the second season in 2013. The main creative team and voice talent have stayed the same throughout the seasons. However, the two parts voiced by children – Igam Ogam and Roly – were recast.
The first season aired on Channel 5 in their kids block Milkshake! from March till May 2010 and the second season got its first run from September till December 2013 on the same channel.
The series was also broadcast on KiKa (Germany),ČT :D (Czech Republic),ABC Kids (Australia) and NPO Zappelin (Netherlands).
8 episodes from the first season were made available on a DVD self-released by Calon, available in separate Welsh and English editions. On 14 April 2014 the first 13 episodes of the first season were given an official retail DVD release in United Kingdom through Signature Entertainment.
Season 1 is available on Amazon Instant Video in United Kingdom.
Calon released two picture books, Where's My Doggie? and I'm Not Igam Ogam, covering the specific episodes.
The Welsh creative dance company Coreo Cymru and the Wales Millennium Centre in association with Calon have produced a live dance and acrobatics stage show called The Igam Ogam Show (Sioe Igam Ogam in Welsh language), which toured several Welsh cities in summer 2013. The show was created by Carole Blade.
