Go Jetters

Go Jetters is a 3D animated British children's television series currently airing on CBeebies.

This geography based programme was commissioned by CBeebies Controller Kay Benbow and is a co-production of CBeebies In-house Production and BBC Worldwide.[3]

Aimed at the upper-end of preschool ages 4–6, Go Jetters follows the adventures of four heroes, Xuli, Kyan, Lars and Foz, as they travel the world with their teacher, mentor and friend, Ubercorn. The programme uses songs and music to expose facts about various countries and environments.

The programme started out as a feature on the channel’s website, but was so popular it got spun off into the more successful series.
Go Jetters

Each Go Jetter has a star logo on their suit, and a particular speciality and a sentence they'll often repeat over the episodes.

    Pilar Orti as Xuli who is the only girl of the group and pilot of their vehicle, the Vroomster. Her purple and yellow suit has stylised wings around its logo and she has a white fringe, making her the only Go Jetter with visible hair, and she wears dark purple gloves and boots. She talks with a Spanish accent and her catchphrase is 'not cool' and she takes a 'selfie' of the team at the end of each episode.
    Akie Kotabe as Kyan, who is the sporty one, very good at gymnastics. He wears a deep blue and orange suit along with dark blue gloves and boots with no particular sign of his speciality. He has a Chinese-American accent and is known to say "aced it!" in every episode. He never stays still!
    Syrus Lowe as Lars who is the tallest of the Go Jetters, really good at fixing things. In red and white, his logo has a cog-shaped surrounding, wearing dark red gloves and boots. He speaks with a British accent and is known to say "Geographic!" in most episodes. Lars is also shown being an Eiffel Tower lover in the first episode of the series.
    John Hasler as Foz who is the clever one, and also the smallest. In light blue and yellow wearing light blue gloves and boots, his logo is shaped like a broken circle similar to an on/off symbol. He is also from Britain and is known to build his sentences like mathematical formulae (X plus Y equals Z) and say "ergo". He is also scared a bit of Grandmaster Glitch.
    Tommie Earl Jenkins[8] as Ubercorn who is the leader and mentor of the Go Jetters Academy, he is a funky-disco grooving unicorn.[4] Ubercorn is dressed in a white sparkly suit with light blue stars and purple goggles, and has red sparkly hooves and a purple mane and tail. He guides the Go Jetters during their missions by giving them advice and selecting click-ons for them – suit upgrades enabling them to tackle different situations. He also presents them with three 'funky facts' about each place they visit, introduced by a theme song.
    Naomi McDonald[9] as the Jet Pad that is the high-tech computerised jet that helps the Go Jetters to go around the world and serves as their HQ. Often needs refilling at Niagara Falls.

Villains

    Marc Silk as Grandmaster Glitch, a troublemaker who is a disgruntled former cadet of the Go Jetter Academy. Glitch likes mud and having fun, which usually involves destroying or using a landmark to achieve his plans. He has a large moustache, used as his trademark, and funnel-like pieces on his helmet. He calls the Go Jetters "No-Jetters" and his catchphrase is "Grimbles!" which he says in frustration. He travels around in the Grim HQ, a rusty rocket ship that leaves a trail of smoke, and has a teddy bear called Cuddles.
    Marc Silk as the Grimbots who are little spherical robots, Grandmaster Glitch's minions. They take care of everything at Grim HQ, Glitch's main jet and help Glitch in his mischievous activities.

Episode structure

Each episode is built on a similar structure, as follows.

Aboard their Jet Pad, the Go Jetters are heading to a new place to discover a new landmark. On the way, Ubercorn gives them his top 3 "funky facts" on the place they are going to visit. Once there, they discover the landmark being "glitched" (altered in some way) by Grandmaster Glitch and his grimbots. The Go Jetters have the mission to save the landmark. They ask Ubercorn for some "Click-ons" (gadgets) to help them in their task. The landmark is saved, and the Go Jetters take a selfie as a souvenir.
