Dame Jacqueline's story was inspired by Edith Nesbit's original novel written in 1905. It was published in 2021 and follows Phoebe and her family who are adjusting to life after their father suddenly disappears.

The reimagined version will form a feature-length, 90-minute-long episode.

Filming will take place in various locations across the city including the city centre, Anderston, Kinning Park, Bellahouston, and Pollokshields.
