An all-singing, all-dancing comedy series for CBBC. By day the Swanns perform as TV pop group We're In Perfect Harmony; by night they're a big, blended and sometimes harmonious step-family.
When English musician Gary Swann stepped on stage with African-American soul singer Sholandra in Las Vegas it was love at first verse. Now their families have come together, moved back to the UK and landed the best gig in TV - house band on everyone's favourite tea-time chat-show, The Totally Annabelle Show, hosted by the nation's top teen presenter.
In front of the TV screens Annabelle is a darling and adored by all but, once the cameras stop rolling, the Swanns soon discover her real persona - she's a nightmare!
