Reality

We are focusing on young-skewing reality series, which fall into 3 three categories.

Stripped Reality Events - eg. Love Island and Big Brother

• These are fast turn around series that involve viewer interaction (ie. voting)

• They should create a shared viewing experience, with lots of talk-ability and should drive conversation on social

• Both the precinct and format need to feel distinct and original.

Constructed Reality - eg. The Only Way Is Essex, Real Housewives of Cheshire, Bad Chefs & Loaded in Paradise

• These are post-produced shows.

• Character and narrative led

• They can be precinct based such as The Only Way Is Essex and Real Housewives of Cheshire, which are real-life soap operas or set on location, such as Loaded in Paradise and The Singles Table, which are more formatted.

Access Reality/Obs Doc series - eg. Billie & Greg: The Family Diaries, Kelsey Parker: Life Without Tom

• Talent led

• Intimate and authentic access, filmed in an obs doc style

• Driven by an event (such as a wedding or a pregnancy) or a broader subject matter (bereavement, health issues)
