Adventures on Orsum Island was a planned British CGI children's television series created by former Thomas & Friends and Tugs director and producer, David Mitton. This was Mitton's last work before his death in 2008. The show was being produced by Pineapple Squared Entertainment, which was founded by Mitton and director David Lane in 2005. Nine episodes were produced before the project was abandoned following David Mitton's sudden heart attack and death on 16 May 2008.
