Hilltop Hospital

"Hilltop Hospital" was an claymation childrens television programme made in 1999 of 52 ten minute episodes. The series was directed by Pascal Le Nôtre and produced in English, French ("Hôpital Hilltop") and German ("Klinik Hügelheim"). The series was adapted from a series of books by Nicholas Allan of the same name.

It was about a hospital staffed by animals with mainly young animals as patients. Regular characters include:
* Dr. Matthews, a dog, who seeks the romantic attention of Surgeon Sally
* Nurse Kitty, a cat, who seeks the romantic attention of Dr. Matthews who for the most part does not notice
* Surgeon Sally, a hippo, a workaholic surgeon who has no time for Dr Matthews attention
* Clare and Arthur, two rats, who provide technical and laboratory services
* Dr Atticus, a tortoise, the anesthetist who often is sleeping
* The two Teds, two identical twin bears, who drive the hospital ambulance and work as orderlies

The English language version featured the voices of Kevin Whately (Dr. Matthews), Sally Ann Marsh (nurse Kitty), Celia Imrie (Surgeon Sally), Paul Shane (the two Teds), Brian Murphy (Dr. Atticus), Julie Higginson (Clare the lab rat) and Jonathon Kydd (Arthur the lab rat).
