FILMING A CBBC DRAMA – BEHIND THE SCENES

My name is Grace McIntosh, you may or may not know me or that I currently appear on a CBBC show called the 4 O’Clock Club. I’m very privileged to be in this position and always see myself as a totally normal teenage girl. I have recently finished filming my 4th series in the show, this summer, which was amazing, so I’m going to tell you a bit about my experiences!

I love playing my character on the show and find it awesome being able to shift from myself to my character, Eleesha. I’m often asked what I do when I’m away filming the show, well, we film each year from June to September (throughout the summer holidays) which, actually doesn’t bother me in the slightest as we have so much fun on and off set. We film in Manchester so I have to stay with other members of the cast who live up and down the country. We go out for meals at night, go round to each other’s apartments and get up to all sorts of mischief. We’ve had a very full on year with lots of exciting storylines, so filming has been very enjoyable!

Despite the unpredictable weather, and early mornings, I’ve had a very joyous summer with amazing people and created memories for life, fingers crossed I can do it all again soon! Hope you enjoy the upcoming new series!!

“Back to school for me, but looking back on how amazing my summer has been just makes me instantly smile”
