With the likes of Vicky McClure, Bella Ramsey and Anjli Mohindra, we're pretty used to seeing Notts on TV.
But the latest local talent to take a leading role in a telly show is not one you'd expect.
Nottingham’s tram network was picked as the focus of the latest episode of popular children’s TV programme Maddie's Do You Know?
CBeebies presenter Maddie Moate paid a visit to NET’s Wilkinson Street depot to find out how a tram works for her behind the scenes series.
Now available on BBC iPlayer, the programme explains how electricity is used to power the tram and Maddie even takes herself on a trip through Nottingham on one.
Operated by driver manager Darren Smith, he says: “It was a pleasure to host Maddie and her team, and a great opportunity to showcase the technology that drives our successful network.
“The NET team also had a fantastic opportunity to see how a popular children’s TV show is filmed and Maddie was a real star!”
