Thank you very much for getting in touch about the ITV comedy Piglets.
We are sorry to hear you have raised concerns about the title.
Piglets is a new comedy, produced by the award winning team behind Green Wing, set in a fictional police training academy. The title is not intended to cause any offence, it’s a comedic play on words to emphasise the innocence and youth of our young trainees. The show’s name is an endearing reference to the enthusiastic new recruits who enter an often-maligned workforce.
The series is aimed at a post-watershed adult audience. It is an irreverent and humorous look at the challenges the new recruits face, their relationships with each other and their more senior colleagues.
