History

The series was originally proposed as an animation series by Rastamouse producers Eugenio Perez and Gregory Boardman. The live action series was created by William Vanderpuye, Maria Timotheou and Akindele Akinsiku, drawing on their own childhood experiences. The CBeebies commisioner said of the show that "The urban setting is important for a lot of children. When you’re a child you do read stories and they are a bit idealistic - this will be more real and more authentic."
The first of 30 episodes was first broadcast on 22 May 2017, and a second series was commissioned that year.
