"Gentle, contemplative, beautifully shot, soothingly narrated"...Channel 5 gives us something special ! Guardian Review

Channel 5 has commissioned a four part documentary series which will explore Loch Lomond.

The 4 x 60-minute series, Loch Lomond: A Year in the Wild, is a co-production between Tigress Productions and GroupM Entertainment. It will capture a year in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park and explore the impact of the changing seasons on the diverse ecosystem.

Discovery's London-based international commissioning hub is to move into its next phase after the broadcaster confirmed that former Nutopia producer Phil Craig will replace Julian Bellamy.

Craig, who was most recently head of factual at Australian public broadcaster ABC, will become executive vice-president and CEO for Discovery Networks International. 

Craig will be tasked with taking the commissioning hub, established in 2011, to the "next level," said DCI international president JB Perrette " London has been and will continue to be the creative centre for us" 

Craig will join Discovery in February 2015, with Perrette joking that he will have plenty of time to hear new ideas " He has to bring us three hits by the time he joins" Perrette said.
