This series was aimed at toddlers.[2] Second and later series A second CG animated series was created for CBeebies and Studio 100 Animation at A Productions in 2014. This version was aimed at older children and is notable for giving the characters names and voices. For the second series, producer Barry Quinn chose to use an Australian theme: the Numtums are based on numbats (hence the Numtums' fondness for eating termites), side characters include an echidna, Billy the Kidna, a lyrebird, Larry, a koala with plans for world domination, Fluffy McTuffy, a smart, acerbic, yet misanthropic, slightly pessimistic, silent and even stoic frilled lizard who is her assistant and three small rubber ducks, Dennis, Finley and Trixie. [3] The Numtum characters' names are based on Australian place names.[2] Along with Super Numtum now getting his own show, while Gladdy, Flinders, Hobart and Nimbin are the four oldest numtums, Bendy Go, Dar Dar, Champer, Humpty Do, Little Sandy and Coogee are the six youngest Numtums, known as the Numpups. They hang out at a termite shaped café where they reward themselves with Termite Treats. Even though they come from Australia, each of the characters, except Super Numtum, Frilly Lizzy, Fluffy McTuffy, Larry and Billy, all speak with a Yorkshire accent. The Numtums' names and numbers are: Bendy Go Dar Dar Champer Gladdy Little Sandy Flinders Humpty Do Coogee Hobart Nimbin
