Kevin McKidd: From Trainspotting to the Railway Children

His latest project, the Primrose Railway Children, is currently filming in Glasgow and the Highlands.

The 90-minute CBBC special is an adaptation of Dame Jacqueline Wilson’s popular children’s novel – a modern-day retelling of Edith Nesbit classic, The Railway Children.

A fan of the original Railway Children film as a child, McKidd will play father Rob Robinson with Nina Toussaint-White as his wife, Sarah Robinson.

The story follows children Phoebe (Ava McCarthy), Becks (Ida Brooke) and Perry (Tylan Bailey) and their mum who are living a comfortable life in Glasgow before being uprooted and moved to the remote highlands of Scotland.

He says: “It’s about a family that goes through its challenges like every family has to at some point and there’s some separation of the parents and it’s about how do you heal that, how do you come back together again and how do you find a place to belong.”

McKidd said the project will give him the opportunity to let his own children enjoy some of his work.

“I don’t get to do many things that my little kids get to watch because I’m on Grey’s Anatomy and it’s all this fake blood and it’s quite scary.

“It’s nice to actually have something I can sit down with my family at Christmas and watch and let them see what Dad does for a living.”
