It has been commissioned by the BBC.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to Hello Halo, Langan joined BBC Children\u2019s in 2011 and led the CBeebies in-house development team for almost four years; her commissions in that position included BAFTA-winning <em>Old Jack\u2019s Boat<\/em> and <em>Swashbuckle<\/em>, and RTS-winning <em>Stargazing<\/em> and <em>Biggleton<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Langan said: \u201cCreating quality programs for young people has never been more important and I am delighted to lead Hello Halo\u2019s new division. I look forward to creating even greater content for our young audiences and working with the incredibly talented children\u2019s production community here in Scotland.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wendy Rattray, managing director at Hello Halo, added: \u201cTerri is an exceptional talent in the world of children\u2019s television.
