The latest from Davies and former "Doctor Who" and "The Sarah Jane Adventures" Phil Ford is "Harry Potter"-meets-"Invaders From Mars."
The series sees a normal boy who learns that he's a wizard which sounds suspiciously like another very famous British franchise. But then the aliens show up and it all gets a little weird.
The family friendly drama will be making its debut on the CBBC and here's the official synopsis:
Tom Clarke [Scott Haran] is a seemingly ordinary boy who loves football. He lives with his dad Michael and grandmother Ursula in an ordinary house in an ordinary street – but there’s something different about Tom. He has an astonishing secret – his family are Wizards! When the alien Nekross arrive on Earth hungry for magic, there’s big, big trouble in store for all wizardkind.
With the help of his friend and science super-brain Benny [Percelle Ascott, above right], Tom must stop them – but will these two unlikely heroes succeed, or will the Nekross devour all the magic on Earth with disastrous results for the whole planet?
