Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ THREE has commissioned a pilot factual show from Kalel Productions based around how to survive any potential disaster that life throws at you - from escaping a car sinking in water to delivering a baby in a taxi.
Μύ
Called Worst Case Scenario, the commission follows Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ THREE's new Indies initiative, the aim of which is to work with new talent by bringing companies of under a year old into the channel.
Μύ
Former Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ THREE Controller Stuart Murphy and Independents Executive Krishan Arora hosted a briefing day on 14 October for fledgling independent production companies.
Μύ
They were then given a fortnight to pitch innovative programme ideas, which were subsequently considered by entertainment, factual and comedy commissioners.
Μύ
"Worst Case Scenario is a really exciting idea that lends itself to a distinctive visual execution," says Damian Kavanagh, acting Controller of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ THREE.
Μύ
The pilot is commissioned via Ben Gale, Executive Producer (Independents) in Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Factual Commissioning.
Μύ
Kalel Productions is headed by Nick Parnes and Hannah Cantor.
