Liverpool-made House of Anubis gets third series
THE Liverpool-made teen drama mystery House of Anubis will return for a third series.
Childwall-based co-producer Lime Pictures, whose credits include Hollyoaks and The Only Way Is Essex, today confirmed the news.
Another series was commissioned by Nickelodeon after proving a ratings hit on both sides of the Atlantic.
House of Anubis follows a group of students who uncover and solve hidden mysteries at an English boarding school while dealing with the highs and lows of their teenage years.
The first season of House of Anubis, which was filmed in Liverpool in July 2010, launched in the US in January last year.
It was later screened in the UK and Australia and was shown to millions on Nickelodeon channels around the world in 2011.
The second season, which was shot in Speke, is currently showing on Nickelodeon UK.
A spokeswoman for Lime Pictures told the ECHO: “Series three will resume production later this year.”
Based on the Belgian/Dutch show, Het Huis Anubis, the series was originally produced in the Benelux countries and is in its sixth season in Belgium and the Netherlands.
