RTS National Event

Sky Original comedy Breeders is produced by Avalon and FX Productions for FX Networks and Sky One.

The transatlantic critical hit, with series two currently in production, sees Martin Freeman star as Paul, a caring father discovering he’s not quite the man he thought he was. His partner in this impossibly steep parental climb is Ally (Daisy Haggard), who makes Paul laugh and has the ability to read a story to their children while she's technically asleep. 

This event hosted by Heat Magazines’ Kay Ribeiro, will tell the story of the show over the years and what we can expect from its newest season. Joining Kay are Tim Key, executive producer, Red Planet Pictures and live from Guadeloupe cast members Ralf Little, Don Warrington and Joséphine Jobert.

Caribbean sunshine and crime, this event promises to be unmissable as we celebrate the ten year anniversary of Death in Paradise due to air on BBC One, January 2021.

Death in Paradise Series 10 – Series Synopsis

But what does diversity mean? Who decides who or what is or isn’t diverse? Where is diversity based? And how much money is enough to ensure that we have true diversity? 

Our panel, hosted by Aaqil Ahmed, will discuss, Defining Diversity? That’s Easy to see how easy it really is. 

Speakers:

How do you manage an entirely live sports TV channel – without any live sports taking place? With no sport and no fans, this panel will investigate how the ever-resilient TV industry adapted to fill entire daily schedules which suddenly became empty overnight.

We will hear from major sporting brands in the UK to find out their initial and then longer-term approach. The panel will talk about the innovative ways broadcasters, programme makers and the wider sports industry adapted to the challenging circumstances – and the value new and existing technology delivered.

Research commissioned by environmental charity Global Action Plan this summer shows three quarters (77%) of young people in the UK want to see environmental issues included in drama programmes on TV more than they currently are. 

Richard will be introducing five new film makers, finalists in Global Action Plan’s Flickers of the Future competition who are already working on visions of a positive sustainable future where people and planet thrive. 

Following the exclusive preview of episode one, there will be a Zoom Q&A with the key creatives behind the series, including Executive Producer Robert Friedman and other members of the production team. The event will be hosted by Dan Korn, VP Programming at A+E Networks® UK.
