Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham is taking part in more Christmas cheer according to Deadline.
Waddingham will narrate the adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Alex Scheffler’s Tiddler. It tells the story of a: small grey fish with a big imagination who gets lost in the deep wide ocean, until he’s saved by his own storytelling. His stories are so great that word of mouth helps them travel through the ocean and so, when Tiddler gets lost, he realizes they may help him find a way home.
This is the 12th Donaldson adaptation. The BBC has previously adapted The Gruffalo, The Gruffalo’s Child, Room on the Broom, Stick Man, The Highway Rat, Zog, The Snail and the Whale, Zog and the Flying Doctors, Superworm, and The Smeds and the Smoos. Last years Donaldson adaptation was of Tabby McCat, which featured Jodie Whittaker.
Waddingham is no stranger to Christmas events. Last year she did Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas, which our very own Shelby Elpers called an “instant holiday classic.” And then there was the Ted Lasso Christmas episode where Waddingham was the epitome of Christmas cheer and showed off her singing prowess.
