News brief: CBBC orders two shows from Zodiak’s Lucky Day
UK kids channel CBBC has ordered a pair of shows from Lucky Day, the UK producer owned by Zodiak Media.
Disaster Chefs is a 10x30mins series, hosted by Gastronauts’ Stefan Gates, in which a celebrity cook will help a child who has reported his or her parent for being a terrible cook. It will debut on CBBC this summer.
CBBC controller Cheryl Taylor has also commissioned a new series of Driving Academy (pictured) in which careless drivers undertake a masterclass to improve their skills behind the wheel. The new 10x30mins series, which will go out this summer, will feature celebrity bad drivers.
Zodiak Kids will distribute Celebrity Driving Academy and Disaster Chefs in international markets.
