Drama series to get CBBC debut

A children’s drama series that was filmed on the Island earlier this year will get its television debut today (Tuesday).

Rocket’s Island – which was previously known as The Knot – will be broadcast on the CBBC channel for the next three nights at 6.15pm.

It was shot in August and features a number of well known actors including Debra Stephenson, Mark Moraghan and Kelle Bryan.

The story focuses on a farm which plays host a stream of children who have complex lives and was filmed largely in the west of the Island.
