It”s time to play the music…The BBC are developing a new puppet show with the Jim Henson Company: creators of The Muppets.

Currently dubbed No Strings Attached, the project is in its early stages, but plans to make a pilot are underway, with BBC executive editor for entertainment Karl Warner stating it will take the theme of a chat show, with the character based on a real person. A series could air on BBC1 next year.
