BBC Studios’ Kylie Washington On Launching ‘The Office’, ‘Return To Paradise’ & ‘Top Gear’ In Australia
BBC Studios's Kylie Washington talks juggling launches of 'The Office', 'Return to Paradise' and 'Top Gear'.
The BBC Studios ANZ General Manager and Creative Director of Production knows new versions of Death in Paradise, The Office and Top Gear require full attention to succeed, especially with buyers hesitant to put their hands in their pockets and more willing than ever to pull the trigger on disappointments. Ratings of the show — co-produced with Death in Paradise maker Red Planet Pictures and created by James Hall, Peter Mattesi and Robert Thorogood — were strong, with launch numbers close to those achieved by The Newsreader(made by recently-acquired BBC Studios indie Werner Film Productions). Washington is looking forwards to spending some face time later this year in London with new BBC Studios Productions CEO Zai Bennett, the former Sky Content MD who is replacing Ralph Lee.
