Created by British animation duo Joel Veitch and David Shute - the pair behind cult animation website Rathergood.com - Kid Arthur is the story of mortal foes and best friends Arthur and Mordred. They are the only magic kids in their school, and that magic causes chaotic mayhem at every turn. When Mordred summons a dragon to help pass a test, Arthur intervenes to stop him from cheating, but the battle spirals out of control.

"Like everyone, we've always loved the tales of heroic King Arthur and evil warlock Mordred," says Veitch. "For nearly a thousand years the story has been shrouded in the mists of Arthurian romance... now we've had great fun reimagining them as kids in a normal modern day school. Navigating the pitfalls of school life is hard enough, but it's ten times worse if you're magic and your best friend is constantly trying to destroy you with ogres and dragons."
