TRACY Beaker star Dani Harmer has reunited with co-stars after almost two decades in a hilarious spoof music video.
As part of the official release of the theme song, the 32-year-old was joined by familiar faces from the original TV show, which first hit screens in 2002.
Dani recently starred in the CBBC reboot series My Mum Tracy Beaker, which followed Tracy, now a single mother now in her 30s, alongside daughter Jess.
In the new video, Dani is joined by her young co-star Emma Maggie Davies, 11, in the hilarious video, which see them baking cupcakes and dancing.
As Keisha White’s track Someday plays in the background, the mother-daughter duo are joined on screen by familiar faces.
In one scene, Tracy answers the door to collect a pizza, not noticing the courier is former best friend Louise Govern (Chelsie Padley).
In another, Tracy and Jess are playing board games when Elaine The Pain, played by Nisha Naya, pops up on the TV screen to dance.
True to Elaine’s character, she irritatingly taps on the screen to try and get Tracy’s attention as she continues to play with Jess.
Despite appearing on the credits of the original show’s famous opening, it’s the first time the theme song has been released in the two decades since Tracy Beaker.
The hip-hop track rose to fame in 2019 when grime star Stormzy used the catchy hook in the outro to song Superheroes on his Heavy is The Head album.
Singer Keisha said of the eventual release of the track: “I’m thrilled that at long last one of the first songs I ever recorded is now being released.”
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 getting 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.
Viewers quickly fell in love with the CBBC drama, with many adults tuning in to watch the show, dubbing it “nostalgia heaven”.
CBBC’s My Mum Tracy Beaker is available to stream on BBC iPlayer.
