According to Little Big Fish, which produced the programme: “[Meet the McQueens] is a comedy-reality series featuring 14-year-old vegan chef Omari McQueen and his family… and there are a lot of them!
“Seven siblings – including a new baby in the home – means there is always a lot going on.
“What happens when the kids try to throw a surprise party? Why are mum and dad so keen for the kids to be in charge for the day? How hard will it be for them to give up gaming for 24 hours?
“Packed with fun and of course delicious recipes from Omari, this gag packed series is sure to make you laugh out loud!”
