Steve Wynne, Executive Producer at Strawberry Blond : “I love that we are trailblazing for CBBC. Our audience love music, and demand content across all platforms and we know one size does not fit all”.
Steve added “It’s great to feature music guests doing things our audience have never seen them do before as we continue to attract the older CBBC audience and indeed draw viewers back to the channel through our collaboration with BBC Radio 1. It’s a perfect combination of music and entertainment for a digital audience”.
The show was commissioned by Cheryl Taylor and Hugh Lawton at CBBC.
