2012 marks the 10th anniversary of Mentorn Scotland.
The recent move of some of our highest profile series to Scotland
has given us the opportunity to build on this decade by expanding
and developing both our output and our talent base, with fresh
leadership, enhanced investment and new offices.
To lead this drive, we have appointed two senior figures in
Glasgow. Chris Kelly has been promoted from Executive
Producer, Mentorn to Head of Mentorn Scotland. Previously Chris was
Head of Lion Scotland for six years and has a long track record as
an Executive Producer including, most recently on Cowboy Trap (BBC
1) and Storm City (Sky).
Working with him is Robin Gray as Head of Development. Robin
joins us from Objective in Scotland. Over the years he has been a
key figure in developing important series for Scottish production
such as Antiques Road Trip and Tool Academy. In the early
part of his career Robin was an AP at Mentorn Scotland on The Last
Word with Nicky Campbell.
Both Chris and Robin are charged with expanding our
Scottish base, attracting additional work not just from the BBC but
from other broadcasters both here and in the USA.
Mentorn Scotland currently has Question
Time, The Big
Questions, Traffic
Cops and Motorways
Cops in production with the next series of Cowboy
Trap about to go into production.
