Self-isolators rejoice, as every single episode of The Story of Tracy Beaker has been added to BBC iPlayer!

A favourite amongst the '90s generation, the show ran for five series and accumulated a whopping 120 episodes, which chronicled the ups and downs of a foster home known as the Dumping Ground.

Actress Dani Harmer played the titular teenager, who was always wrapped up in drama.

And not only that, all three series of Tracy Beaker Returns and all eight series (so far) of The Dumping Ground have also been added for fans young and old.

With the coronavirus pandemic forcing the UK into lockdown, the addition of Tracy Beaker to the streaming library has come at exactly the right time. Thanks, Beeb.

But if you're into more adult-themed stuff, the BBC confirmed earlier this month that it's set to welcome a collection of other classic boxsets to the iPlayer.

This includes: French and Saunders, Spooks, Waking the Dead, The Missing, Wallander and The Honourable Woman, as well as additional BBC Three content.

In 2012, she also competed on the 10th series of Strictly Come Dancing (above) with her partner Vincent Simone, eventually finishing in fourth place.
