Bing is a British CGI-animated children's television series based on the books by Ted Dewan. It is broadcast on UK TV channel CBeebies; the series follows a pre-school bunny named Bing as he experiences the world around him. It uses small everyday occurrences to demonstrate how he learns new ways to manage situations with the help of his carer, Flop (voiced by Mark Rylance) and friends. The programme's central phrase is "It's a Bing thing!" which Flop intones at the end of each episode when Bing has successfully conquered a troubling task or enjoyed a new childhood experience.

The series of 78, eight minute episodes show the "mishaps, mess, energy and wonder of being a relatively new human being". The programme focuses on real-life situations experienced by many toddlers and their parents.[1] At the end, Bing summarizes what he has learnt in the episode, with Flop intoning "It's a Bing thing".[2]
Main characters[modifica]
- Bing (voiced by Elliot Kerley and Trystan Tomos Thurtle)[3] is the titular protagonist of the programme. His favourite toy is Hoppity Voosh, a rabbit superhero. He wears a green shirt, red checkered dungarees and black and white shoes and he loves to hum, whistle, pretend and do untroubling childlike things.
- Flop (voiced by Mark Rylance)[4] is Bing's carer, guiding Bing through his toddler life, entertaining him and soothing him when he faces a problem. He is a short orange-skinned creature.[5]
- Sula (voiced by Eve Bentley) is a female brown elephant and one of Bing's best friends.[5]
- Amma (voiced by Akiya Henry), is Sula's carer. Amma runs the creche and park café which the programme's child characters sometimes visit. Similar to Flop, she is a short yet blue-skinned and she's an elephant-like creature.
- Pando (voiced by Shai Portnoy) is a panda who is also Bing's second best friend,[5] and lives next door to him. He shares his catchphrase, "Hoppity-voosh! " with Bing. He wears a white shirt, black trainers and underwear and he hums, whistles, pretends and does untroubling unchildlike things just like Bing.
- Padget (voiced by Bryony Hannah) is Pando's carer. She runs the corner shop near to where Bing lives. Padget can sometimes be spotted out jogging or else driving her yellow tuk-tuk.
- Coco (voiced by Jocelyn Macnab) is Bing's 5-year-old older cousin and Charlie's older sister.[5] Coco is the eldest of the child characters.
- Charlie (voiced by Poppy Hendley), is Coco's 1-year-old baby brother and Bing's cousin who cannot talk. He puts everything in his mouth and the others say, "Don't chew it Charlie!"
