Yahoo Finance My Mum Tracy Beaker: Dani Harmer gives fans update ahead of revival series
Actor Dani Harmer has given fans an update on Tracy Beaker ahead of the forthcoming reboot, My Mum Tracy Beaker.
Harmer played the lead role in the popular CBBC series The Story of Tracy Beaker, which ran from 2002 to 2005.
Along with other members of the series’ cast, Harmer is set to return for the new drama, based on Jacqueline Wilson’s 2018 sequel book.
Speaking about the character, Harmer said (per Tyla): “Now she's in her thirties and she's a mum, so it's been really cool for me because like everyone else, I really wanted to know what happened next and where Tracy's journey is going to take her.”
“I think everyone is going to be really pleased seeing how Tracy's progressed and what a great mum she is.”
In a separate interview with the Radio Times, Harmer addressed her excitement about reprising the beloved character, saying it was “so nice” to reunite with her former co-stars.
“I just wish we hadn’t been in the middle of a pandemic because we couldn’t hug anyone,” she said. “So it was really hard.”
My Mum Tracy Beaker will debut on CBBC and iPlayer on 12 February.
