Talent Television has been commissioned by CBBC to produce a fourth series of
its successful kids reality entertainment show 'Best of Friends'.

This follows the success of the first two UK series and a special series filmed
in South Africa, which gained three of the top ten most watched children's
programmes slots for the week it aired in July on BBC1 earlier this summer as
part of the BBC's 'Africa Week'.

This latest series will return to the UK, testing the friendships of boys and
girls from all over the country. CBBC presenters Abs and Rani will again
present the series of twenty 30-minute episodes, scheduled for transmission
from Autumn 2006.
