Megamaths is an Educational programme about Maths that originally aired on BBC2 between 16 September 1996 and 4 February 2002. Each episode was 20 minutes long and was written by Maths Television Presenter Simon Davies. Other people that have been in the series are Liz Crowther and Annee Blott. Between 1996 and 1999 it was presented in a castle where there were the four card suites and jokers. There were two gargoyles at the front of the castle who spoke in rhyme. After megamaths ran for 3 series they decided to stop the castle idea and two presenters presented in a studio.

Animated characters

In the middle of each episode there is a short segment of additional mathematic help with Brimstone; an elderly, mangy, anthropomorphic green dragon, and Digit, an energetic and confident tabby kitten.

The segments in the episodes, they would focus on the main subject of what would be going on at the castle but in a more comical purpose.
