CBBC has ordered a new live-action comedy series, Lagging<\/em>, from the BBC Children’s In-House drama team about gaming, friendship and growing up.<\/p>\n

From BAFTA award-winning writer Dan Berlinka, the series follows Sol, Moi, Cedric, Leah and Ray, a group of 11-year-old gamers who are best friends in real life and online. When gaming, their huge personality differences are an asset, as they face quests and conquer worlds as a team. But as five very different friends, surviving the challenging missions of real life is a much more difficult game.<\/p>\n

Filming has started in the North West, with Connal Orton as executive producer, Gert Thomas producing and Julian Kemp and Teresa Varga directing.<\/p>\n

Lagging<\/em> joins other new titles developed by the In-House scripted development team, which include the previously announced return of Dani Harmer as Tracy Beaker in Dame Jacqueline Wilson\u2019s My Mum Tracy Beaker<\/em>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
