SCRIPTED TELEVISION

We are always looking for new ways into much loved genres – returnable contemporary crime and elevated thrillers remain key for us globally, using different or fresh precincts and ideas to hook audiences in. We want to see a unique tone or intriguing characters that will start conversations and change perspectives, whilst always feeling entertaining and propulsive. A British sentiment is also helpful, whether through casting or location, but the stories should have wider global appeal.
