Talkback Thames has produced a short form sitcom called As the Bell Rings for the Disney Channel.

The 25-part series is based on Quelli d'ell Intervalo, an Italian format currently airing on Disney Channel Italy.

Each five minute episode is set in a school corridor outside the head teacher's office, and follows the characters in their break time. The show begins broadcasting on Monday April 2 at 10.25am.

Disney has previously said it would be investing in more local co-productions in Europe, with the London office driving the new strategy.
