'Grime Kids' Announce cast ahead of BBC iPlayer debut

Grime Kids is a coming of age drama, set in 2001 in Bow, East London The show follows a fictional group of school leavers across what they believe to be, their “last summer as kids”. We follow Dane, Junior, Kai, Bishop and Bayo, as they navigate first loves, fracturing home lives, financial pressures, brushes with danger, and the ever present question: what kind of man do you want to be? All the while pursuing (with various levels of enthusiasm) a very new, and maybe not so justified dream to make it big in the garage music scene.
