While most of our experience is in delivering big ticket entertainment shows, in the last few years we have concentrated on producing formatted factual or documentary pieces, bringing a skillset developed in years of making entertainment into our new work in factual television. This has served us well; our ability to access high profile talent, combined with a special attention to how our content is shot and paced, has endeared us to factual commissioners who have, on the whole, been neglected by entertainment producers. 

We have developed a strong reputation as producers who can deliver big names to projects, and as producers who think carefully about every format beat and casting nuance.

We aim to be one of the most reliable, respected and trusted creators of engaging, entertaining and insightful content in British television. We want to be known for the high quality of our work, for the creative consistency of what we offer and deliver, and for commissioners and audiences to know that what we produce is the best it can possibly be.
