A legend of British children\u2019s TV has confirmed that he\u2019ll be reprising his iconic role from one of the best-loved kids shows of the last 20 years.<\/p>\n
Andrew Agnew, who played PC Plum in Balamory between 2002 and 2005, will be stepping back into his old costume for the planned reboot, coming in 2026.<\/p>\n
Balamory, which ran for four seasons and more than 200 episodes, was the Scottish kids\u2019 TV show that defined a generation with its memorable \u2018What\u2019s the Story?\u2019 theme tune<\/a> and picturesque setting.<\/p>\n Filmed in the town of Tobermory on the Isle of Mull \u2013 one of the largest of the Inner Hebrides islands in Scotland<\/a> \u2013 Balamory followed the lives of the small fictional island community who lived in the titular village.<\/p>\n In September 2024, it was confirmed that Balamory would be returning with brand new episodes in 2026, with BBC bosses setting the official revival date.<\/p>\n Ever since, speculation has been rife as to whether its lead stars Andrew, Julie Wilson Nimmo, and Miles Jupp, among others, would be coming back for another go.<\/p>\n \t\t Now Andrew has confirmed that he\u2019d be well up for producing more stories from Balamory, returning to the role of Balamory\u2019s local police officer PC Plum.<\/p>\n He told BBC Radio Scotland\u2019s Lunchtime Live that he\u2019d be more than eager to get back to Tobermory for more filming when production resumes in the near future.<\/p>\n \u2018If they ask me to go back then I\u2019ll absolutely be there with bells on, I\u2019m sure. But at the moment we\u2019re all just getting excited at the fact that it\u2019s happening. I don\u2019t think it would be same if we weren\u2019t involved in it.\u2019<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t Andrew\u2019s recent comments echo those of Julie\u2019s too, who simply said \u2018Yup\u2019 when asked by a fan of the show if she\u2019d be coming back as Miss Hoolie, Balamory\u2019s nursery teacher.<\/p>\n Joking that Balamory\u2019s anticipated return was \u2018bigger than the Oasis reunion\u2019, Julie made it clear that any future episodes of the children\u2019s show would involve her.<\/p>\n Head of children\u2019s TV at the BBC, Kate Morton, revealed the news in 2024: \u2018A whole new generation will discover and enjoy Balamory as we bring families together with this new update for CBeebies.<\/p>\n \t\t \u2018It will be a real treat for parents who grew up with the show to now introduce their little ones to the brightly coloured world getting to know a host of old and new characters together.\u2019<\/p>\n While some of the old cast appear to be returning, there\u2019s also the question of whether a reboot calls for some original<\/a> and newly developed characters.<\/p>\n And while many fans would love of whether production will return to the beautiful Isle of Mull, which has a population of approximately 3,000 people.<\/p>\n Watch episodes of Balamory on BBC iPlayer.<\/strong><\/p>\n Got a story?<\/strong><\/p>\n If you\u2019ve got a celebrity story, video or pictures get in touch with the Metro.co.uk<\/a> entertainment team by emailing us celebtips@metro.co.uk, calling 020 3615 2145 or by visiting our Submit Stuff<\/a> page \u2013 we\u2019d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n Arrow Arrow![\"Aspiring](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/SEI_222023410-aac0.jpg\")
