Production notes
Combined 3D CGI animation and photomontage.
First broadcast on October 5, 2009 by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation; airdates shown are for CBeebies in the United Kingdom.
Dirtgirl's backyard is full of friends. There's ScrapBoy, her best friend, a cow punk who's a whiz with junk, Grubby with her worm's eye view, Ken the weevil, a super stunt star weevil with an inferiority complex, Roger the Rooster and The Chicks, Hayman the monosyllabic scarecrow, and The Green Thumbs& real kids in real gardens having unreal fun.
Dirtgirlworld is a place of bizarre insects, underground tunnels, and performing stunt bugs. Funky pop songs, guitars with attitude, beats, grooves and loops all blended with a tractor, make up the infectiously cool music in dirtgirlworld. This musicentric series explores the natural world and invites the audience to "go get grubby" in the big world outside.
