What we're looking for from Ready, Steady, Pitch!

SCRIPTED TELEVISION

We're looking for English language co-pro/ pre-buy projects which are attention-grabbing, talent-led scripted (premium/ streaming friendly) content of the kind we wouldn't traditionally commission ourselves (so not domestic/ relationship/ procedural drama). We are open to serialised, premium crime thrillers, grounded supernatural/ sci-fi dramas, and younger/ male-skewing comedy series.

In all cases, we would come on at a point when there is an international primary commissioning platform/ broadcaster who has greenlit the show (i.e a UK secondary partner is then sought) and with at least one key on screen talent attached.
