5/10
A hit adaptation
5 April 2017
It went on a bit too long, but this TV series, based on the book by Jaqueline Wilson was a huge hit back in its day, and continues to be repeated today.

It's success in part is down to the central performance of Dani Harmer, who played the part so well it's probably stopped her being accepted in any other role. Though I did think she was good in 'After you've gone'.

Funny in places, touching in others, it's no surprise that this show touched the hearts of kids everywhere, and their parents too.

It did outstay it's welcome, and a couple of spin-off's were launched off the back of it, but it was good at the time.
