Katie Morag leads Children's Bafta nominations

Katie Morag has already won several awards

CBeebies drama Katie Morag is leading this year's British Academy Children's Awards with three nominations.

The show is based on the books by Mairi Hedderwick and charts the adventures of a feisty and independent girl who lives on a Scottish island with her family.

Wolfblood, Old Jack's Boat, The Amazing World of Gumball, 4 O'Clock Club and Roy each have two nominations.

The awards, which recognise the best in children's media, will be hosted by Doc Brown on 23 November in London.

CBBC's supernatural drama Wolfblood, Irish cartoon Roy and Katie Morag are all nominated in both the drama and writer categories, with Rocket Island also competing for the drama prize.

Eight-year-old Cherry Campbell, who plays Katie Morag, is nominated for the performer award and faces competition from Bernard Cribbins who plays Jack in Old Jack's Boat, which is also up for the pre-school live action award.
