BBC Studios announces Go Jetters spin-off

February 12, 2026

BBC Studios has announced Go Jetters Go!, a new series in the Go Jetters universe, supported by the Infocomm Media Development Authority of Singapore (IMDA).

This spin-off series was born from IMDA’s initiative to support international Intellectual Properties (IPs) that could be meaningfully localised. Go Jetters, a wholly owned BBC IP, was selected for its international appeal and adaptability. Originally conceived as short-form content, the project evolved into a full series following development and commissioning by BBC Children’s and Education for CBeebies in the UK with IMDA’s and BBC Studios support.

Go Jetters Go! introduces Kym, a top Singaporean cadet, who is guided by original Go Jetters, Xuli, Kyan, Foz and Lars, on her global quest to locate the Go Jetters Cup and become a Go Jetter. From Mission HQ in Singapore, Kym is given Groovy Clues by Ubercorn to find G.O Stars hidden all around the world, which collectively lead to the Go Jetters Cup. To find the G.O Stars, Kym travels across continents discovering natural wonders, iconic landmarks and cultural treasures, all while fending off the antics of Grandmaster Glitch and his loyal Grimbots.

The series will be animated by UK-based Brighton Zoo Animation Studios, sister company of Blue Zoo, who previously worked on the original Go Jetters Seasons 2 and 3.

Go Jetters Go! features Singaporean actress and voice talent, Lim Shi-An, in her first very animation voicing top cadet Kym. With guidance from Singaporean Media Consultant, Leslie Lee, the series blends authentic Singaporean elements whilst ensuring it has mass global appeal for an international audience. Singaporean writers Lisa Teh and Debra Chong joined the UK-based writing team to flesh out stories.

Cecilia Persson, Managing Director, BBC Studios Kids & Family, commented: “We’re thrilled to be working with IMDA on Go Jetters Go! This partnership allows us to bring a fresh perspective to a much-loved brand, while celebrating Singapore’s culture and global outlook. Kym’s journey is one of discovery, teamwork and pride, and we can’t wait to share it with audiences around the world.”

Yvonne Tang, Assistant Chief Executive, Media Industry Group, IMDA, said: “We’re excited to partner with BBC Studios to expand the well-loved Go Jetters universe with Go Jetters Go!. As the first spin-off of a successful children’s series to be set in Singapore, the show puts our local culture and creativity on an international stage and brings Singapore stories to children and families around the world. It also celebrates our homegrown talent, who are contributing their distinctive voices and perspectives, and helps strengthen the creative capability of our media industry in Singapore.”

Kate Morton, Senior Head of Commissioning at BBC Children’s and Education for CBeebies said: “This is an international collaboration with universal impact for audiences across the globe. The return of this much-loved brand is brilliant news for CBeebies viewers and demonstrates the power of animation to unite to overcome this challenging time for children’s television worldwide.”

Go Jetters Go! is anticipated to premiere in the UK and Singapore in Q4 2026 or Q1 2027.
