An award-winning BBC series for children has been translated into Manx, making it the first animated Manx programme.
Friends and Heroes, or Caarjyn as Fenee, is set in the first century and follows the adventures of two young friends.
The programme was first shown on the BBC in 2007 and is available in 11 languages with Manx set to become the 12th in the spring.
Manx language officer Adrian Cain says it is the latest tribute to the original pioneers who revived the language:
