Beloved children's television series Balamory is set to make an unexpected return to CBeebies more than two decades after its initial broadcast, with star Julie Wilson Nimmo admitting she "never expected" to reprise her role as Miss Hoolie.
The award-winning programme, which first aired in 2002, will feature a revamped format but retain many familiar faces, including Nimmo, 53, who plays nursery school teacher Miss Hoolie. The Scottish actress expressed her excitement for the new series, revealing that she and co-star Andrew Agnew initially could not believe the show was making a comeback.
