Creator notes
Humans and Bugs: On a Scottish Run is a British animated travel-comedy television series produced by Magic Light Pictures. It serves as a direct spin-off to the 2026 animated feature film The Bee and the Butterfly. The series stars the film's core voice cast—Emily Blunt, James Monroe Iglehart, Idina Menzel, and Olivia Colman—playing fictionalised versions of themselves as they embark on a luxury coach tour across Scotland alongside the tiny, fully animated insect characters they voice.
The series is broadcast concurrently on BBC One and CBeebies in the United Kingdom, while streaming internationally on BBC iPlayer and Netflix alongside the original film. Planned as a five-season anthology series, each season explores a distinct geographical or cultural facet of Scotland.
The animated human cast:
Emily Blunt as Herself, the warm and maternal de facto leader of the human group who frequently rescues HoneyMoon from trouble.
James Monroe Iglehart as Himself, a high-energy, boisterous theatrical performer who matches the hyperactive nature of his animated counterpart.
Idina Menzel as Herself, a calm, dryly amused counterweight to the chaos who is primarily responsible for policing Vesperia's misbehaviour.
Olivia Colman as Herself, an eccentric, easily flustered traveler who bonds with Scarlet Rose over rigorous scheduling.
The animated Cast:
Emily Blunt as HoneyMoon, a polite, naive honeybee whose curiosity constantly leads her to wander off into human establishments.
James Monroe Iglehart as Sun Wing, a fiercely romantic and quite chill monarch butterfly prince who usually panics and worries whenever his wife goes missing.
Idina Menzel as Queen Vesperia, a power-hungry wasp who stubbornly retains her crown and plots petty revenge against the bees.
Olivia Colman as Scarlet Rose, a hyper-organized, clock-watching ladybug advisor who constantly stresses over the tour's timeline.
Special guest stars:
Tara Strong (Season 1, Episode 3) as Herself, a hyperactive voice actress who crashes the Inverness leg of the tour, immediately becoming best friends with James and Sun Wing.

Following the production wrap of The Bee and the Butterfly, the film's director surprises the central voice cast with a celebratory road trip across Scotland. Things take a chaotic turn when the actors discover that their animated characters—HoneyMoon, Sun Wing, Queen Vesperia, and Scarlet Rose—have manifested in the real world and are joining them on the luxury tour bus.The series splits its focus between traditional real-world travelogue exploration and domestic sitcom antics inside the bus. Most episodes feature recurring comedic gags, including:
The Abrupt Awakening: Every episode begins with the film's director waking the exhausted cast up at dawn via a loud, crackling walkie-talkie to announce their arrival at a new destination.
The Vesperia Vendetta: Having been banished at the end of the film, the miniature Queen Vesperia (Menzel) continuously attempts to sabotage or trap HoneyMoon (Blunt). Her tiny schemes are routinely thwarted by the human cast, resulting in Vesperia being placed in a transparent Starbucks "Naughty Cup" as punishment.
The HoneyMoon Hunt: The curious and sweet-natured HoneyMoon regularly wanders off to investigate local scenery or sweet treats. This triggers a frantic search party by the cast—chiefly led by her deeply panicked husband, Sun Wing (Iglehart)—who invariably find her safe at the location's most popular landmark.
The Loungewear Routine: The conclusion of each episode features the animated insects winding down in custom evening wear, including HoneyMoon in an oversized off-the-shoulder shirt and hexagon shorts, Sun Wing in sweatpants using his monarch wings as a blanket, Scarlet Rose (Colman) in a Dickensian nightcap holding a tiny candle, and Vesperia refusing to remove her royal sleeping gown and crown.
