CBeebies recommissioned several preschool series, including\u00a0<em>Time for School<\/em> (season three), <em>Yakka Dee<\/em> (seasons two and three), <em>Magic Hands<\/em> (season three), <em>Gigglebiz<\/em> (season five), <em>Something Special<\/em> (season 12), <em>Go Jetters<\/em> (season three) and <em>My Petsaurus<\/em> (season two).<\/p>\n<p>A new commission is<em> Lochside,<\/em>\u00a0a preschool drama from BBC Children\u2019s set in a Scottish village. The show celebrates modern society with themes of inclusivity and diversity, offering a reflection of the U.K. nowadays.<\/p>\n<p>Another commission is <em>The Tempest<\/em>,\u00a0a 50-minute production in collaboration with the Royal Shakespeare Company that brings the Bard\u2019s play to life. The cast will feature a combination of CBeebies and Royal Shakespeare Company talent, as well as mainstream actors who have Shakespearean backgrounds. It will be broadcast for Easter 2018. In <em>Junk Rescue<\/em> (Hello Halo), Danny Sebastian, Zoe Pocock and their team of Junkyard Helpers give a fun and practical new life to day-to-day items found at the Junkyard. <em>Baby Club<\/em>, produced in conjunction with Three Arrows Media, is set to premiere on CBeebies in January 2018.<\/p>\n<p>Kay Benbow, controller of CBeebies, said, \u201cBringing the arts to life for younger audiences is something I have always been passionate about and so to be announcing <em>The Tempest<\/em> as our second Shakespeare commission is something I am immensely proud of. I am so proud to be leaving CBeebies in such a strong position with a fantastic raft of new commissions made by both our in-house production teams and our dedicated independent partners. CBeebies is now a multi-genre channel and being able to commission such a rich and diverse range of programs for our youngest viewers over the past seven years has been an honor and a privilege. I\u2019ll look forward to watching the continuing success of this very special preschool channel.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BBC Children\u2019s has commissioned a host of new shows for CBeebies, including Lochside,\u00a0as well as several returning series such as Yakka Dee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":13572,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[1351,494],"class_list":["post-13571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-bbc-childrens","tag-cbeebies","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>CBeebies Orders Slate of New &amp; Returning Shows - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"CBeebies Orders Slate of New &amp; Returning Shows - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"BBC Children\u2019s has commissioned a host of new shows for CBeebies, including Lochside,\u00a0as well as several returning series such as Yakka Dee.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2017-12-11T15:38:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2017-12-11T15:44:31+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/12\/Yakka-Dee-CBeebies-1217-e1513007067697.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"498\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"328\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/\",\"name\":\"CBeebies Orders Slate of New & Returning Shows - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2017-12-11T15:38:47+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2017-12-11T15:44:31+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/cbeebies-orders-slate-of-new-returning-shows\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"CBeebies Orders Slate of New &#038; Returning Shows\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
