Oldest child on television

According to Official Guinness Records,

Although now in semi-retirement, Janette Tough (UK, b. 16 May 1947)
regularly played the role of pre-teen schoolboy Jimmy Krankie alongside her husband Ian (UK), who plays Jimmy’s father. Although she celebrated her 60th birthday in 2007, Tough, at a diminutive 1.3 m (4 ft 5 in) tall, still occasionally dons her schoolboy cap and short trousers – most recently on the 2007 Comic Relief/Proclaimers (UK) single “(I’m Gonna Be) 500 Miles”. In 2003, Jimmy Krankie was voted by readers of the Glasgow Herald as the Most Scottish Person in the World.
