Tracy Beaker fans go wild as show legends reunite 19 years after series ended
TRACY Beaker fans went wild this weekend when two legends from the show reunited on stage.
Dani Harmer and Nisha Nayar headed to London Film and Comic Con this weekend to talk about the hit series, which ended back in 2005.
Dani, 35, played the lead Tracy Beaker, while Nisha starred as Elaine “the Pain” Boyak.
They both shared a series of snaps from the convention, with Dani telling her fans: “Oh that was fun!!!!! Our first ever Comic Con!!!!
“Let’s do it again someday!!!!!!!!”
Her post went down very well with her followers who rushed to comment on it, with one person writing: “Brilliant! Tracey Beaker was my childhood and I still love watching it.”
Another remarked: “It was wonderful! So lovely to see you both on stage! Bring on “Tracy’s Dad” as a new TV series!”
While a further added: “Who would have thought Beaker and Elaine the Pain could actually be friends – childhood dream right there!”
The original series followed story of Jacqueline Wilson’s book of the same name, as a young Tracy grew up in children’s home The Dumping Ground.
Rebellious Tracy was known for her rivalry with Justine Littlewood, and often got up to no good after being placed in care by her mum.
The show eventually ended with Tracy being fostered and later adopted by author Cam Lawson, and the character was last seen in 2013 in sequel Tracy Beaker Returns.
Recently, Dani returned as the iconic character Tracy, now as a single mum to daughter Jess and in a relationship with footballer Sean Godfrey, played by Jordan Duvigneau.
Original actors including Lisa Coleman (Cam), Montanna Thomspon (Justine) and Ruth Gemmell (Carly Beaker), also came back for the reboot.
