A unique chance to hear from Richard Holloway, the man behind some of the most successful global entertainment TV formats from X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent to Take Me Out, as he gives his insights into creating must-see television.

Sharing his anecdotes from his 50 years in the TV industry, working with some of the most iconic figures from Barbara Streisand, Danny Kaye, Gene Kelly, Julie Andrews, Roger Moore, Simon Cowell and Jim Henson’s The Muppets to name but a few, this promises to be a hugely entertaining and insightful evening. 

Leaving school at the age of 16, much to the consternation of his family and teachers, Richard has worked his way up from Stage Assistant to Acting CEO of FremantleMedia UK and MD of Thames. He’s responsible for some of the most loved shows on our TV screens – Britain’s Got Talent, X Factor, Take Me Out, Pop Idol, All Star Family Fortunes, Night Fever, The Price is Right, Des O’Connor Tonight, Blankety Blank and Play Your Cards Right.

Do not miss this fantastic opportunity to hear from one of television's greatest entertainment gurus.
