The show's sound effects, created by Richard Webber, are also an important part of the show's humor, with each character's movements and actions accompanied by distinctive, often comical sounds. One of the show's most memorable aspects is its use of music. Each episode features a catchy and upbeat score composed by Ilan Eshkeri, with music and songs that complement the onscreen action. The music ranges from playful and energetic to melancholic and reflective, adding an extra layer of emotion to the show's storytelling. Shaun the Sheep first premiered on BBC One in 2007 and quickly became a hit with audiences of all ages. The show has won numerous awards, including an International Emmy and a BAFTA, and has been broadcast in over 180 countries worldwide. The show has also spawned a spin-off series, Timmy Time, and a feature-length film, Shaun the Sheep Movie.
