Watched both "Angela's Christmas" specials on Netflix today. Hearing voice-acted Irish English should help me with tuning Avanna in Talkloids, as going purely off stuff like street interviews could result in something too fast and hard to understand, and too much filler. Also it's a really cute and heartwarming series. (I feel it's late enough in the year to comfortably watch Christmas movies.)
Puffin Rock is also a thing, but most of the characters that aren't the narrator have Northern Irish accents (an accent Avanna does not have; her voice provider is from the Republic (non-UK part) of Ireland). (It is a very cute and educational series though, and if anything it could help shape Avanna's interests and perhaps the wildlife she'd be familiar with.) I've been considering picking up The Secret of Kells or something, and I've recently discovered that the kids' branch of RTE (basically the Irish equivalent to BBC) has clips of their shows up. I'm mostly going for cartoons as I'm aiming for my Talkloids to be family-friendly as well as clear and easy to understand.
