When Billy was ten years old, his family moved into a huge apartment building that he found “ominous and spooky.” Could it be mere coincidence that his show’s ten-year-old heroes are exploring an ominous, spooky apartment building? We think not!

The Wayne is a high-rise apartment building in New York City. Ansi, Olly and his sister Saraline are friends who call themselves Team Timber, dedicated to exploring the ever-growing mysteries of “Wayne Phenomena” in the building they call home. All manner of action, adventure and otherworldly awesomeness could be right down the hall – or twelve floors up! You never know what’s in store behind a Wayne door.

<blockquote>Who shows up to a kidnapping and doesn&#8217;t bring fudge? 
&#8211; Olly Timbers</blockquote>

Originally the show was a single short, which was developed into a 6 episode digital series that was released on nick.com in 2014.
