Hank Zipzer or AKA Hank Zipzer: The World’s Greatest Underachiever

A new comedy from British TV CBBC
This series was released last year (2014) and will be aired again for second series later this year. I envy our friends in the UK  Roll Eyes

This is from last year:

Newcomer Nick James (represented by D&B Management) will star as 12 year old Henry ‘Hank’ Zipzer, in Hank Zipzer, a brand new comedy drama series coming to CBBC inspired by the book series Hank Zipzer: The World’s Greatest Underachiever, written by Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver.

Multi-award winning actor Henry ‘The Fonz’ Winkler will also feature in the series.

Fast-paced and funny, the series will follow 12-year-old Henry ‘Hank’ Zipzer, a smart and resourceful boy with a unique perspective on the world. Hank has dyslexia, and when problems arise, he deals with them in a way no-one else would – putting him on a direct collision course with his teachers and parents, who don’t seem to appreciate his latest scheme as much as he thought they would... But, Hank always remains positive and convinced that the next big plan will deliver – after all, tomorrow is another day!

And this year:
Henry Winkler’s comedy Hank Zipzer gets second season on CBBC

Hank Zipzer – the world’s greatest underachiever – has accomplished enough to earn a second season on CBBC. After a successful run on the British children’s channel earlier this year, CBBC announced a second 13 x 30-minute season of Hank Zipzer to air starting in late 2015, produced by Kindle Entertainment with DHX Media and Walker Productions.

Based on the real-life experiences of Henry Winkler, who co-authored the book series Hank Zipzer: The World’s Greatest Underachiever, alongside Lin Oliver, the TV show Hank Zipzer follows the life of a resourceful 13-year-old boy with dyslexia. The comedy-drama series filmed in Yorkshire, England, also stars Winkler, best-remembered as The Fonz on 1970s sitcom Happy Days, who now plays the role of the only teacher who understands Hank.

Winkler has so far co-written 18 Hank Zipzer books and another four in the Here’s Hank series, which follows Zipzer in the second grade before he was diagnosed with dyslexia.

Unfortunately I could not find any bio on Nick James Cry
All I can tell is .............. HE IS EXTREMELY CUTIE Embarrassed
