Fireman Sam is a British CGI and Stop Motion-animated children's television series about a fireman named Sam, his fellow firefighters, and other residents in the fictional Welsh rural village of Pontypandy. The original idea for the show came from two ex-firemen from London, England, who took their idea to artist and writer Rob Lee who developed the concept, and the show was commissioned. Fireman Sam first appeared as Sam Tân on S4C on 1 November 1987, and a few weeks later on BBC One on 17 November. The original series finished in 1994, and a new series that expanded the character cast commenced in 2005. The series was also shown as Sam Smalaidh in Scottish Gaelic in Scotland. The series was sold to over 40 countries and has been used across the United Kingdom to promote fire safety. The theme song was performed by Mal Pope in a classic rock style from 1987 to 1994, then by a different singer in a 2000s alternative rock style since the 2005 new episode broadcasts.
