Cheryl Taylor, head of content for BBC Children’s, said: “Crackerjack is just one of several fabulous series that Children’s In-House Productions have developed this year.”
There will be 10 episodes in the series, filmed at MediaCityUK in Salford by BBC Children’s In-House Productions.
Children’s TV show Crackerjack will return to screens, 35 years after it was cancelled.
Crackerjack originally ran from 1955 until 1984 and was hosted by Eamonn Andrews, Leslie Crowther, Michael Aspel, Ed Stewart and Stu Francis.
