Is your child a little genius who loves making new friends? Brand new BBC series casting in Liverpool
A new BBC series, Will You Be My Friend?, is casting children aged 5–8 from Liverpool to take part in playdates that help explore and build childhood friendships.
The award-winning makers of The Dog House and the BAFTA-winning producer of First Dates are looking for children from Liverpool and the local area - aged 5 to 8 - for a brand-new BBC series about childhood friendships.
Does your child love meeting new people? A brand-new BBC series is casting in Liverpool
Friendship starts in all sorts of ways. Bonding over dinosaurs. Running around pretending to be superheroes. Sitting quietly drawing side-by-side. Sometimes all it takes is one child saying hello.
Will You Be My Friend? is a heart-warming new BBC series exploring the world of friendship through children aged 5 to 8.
At the heart of the series is The Friendship Centre, where child psychologists support children who are finding friendships difficult and help them build confidence in social situations. Each child is then sensitively matched on a playdate with a potential new friend from their local area.
We are currently looking for bright, intellectually curious and open-hearted children aged 5 to 8 who would enjoy meeting a new friend and taking part in a fun playdate experience.
Your child might be a mathematics whizz, an avid junior geographer or a science superstar. Most importantly, they enjoy connecting with others and could help another child feel included, seen and accepted.
The series is a celebration of kindness, connection and the huge difference one friendship can make in a child’s life.
Will You Be My Friend? is casting now in Liverpool and the local area, and we would love to hear from families with children aged 5 to 8 who think their child could be a great match for another child looking for friendship.
