10 commissions The Royals Revealed

10 has co-commissioned a new 8 part series on the Royal family, with Britain’s Channel 5.

The Royals Revealed will take viewers on a journey through all aspects of the British Monarchy, past and present.

Produced by UK indie Back2back Productions the series will unpick personal stories to explore the bigger issues at the heart of the monarchy. Examining the tension between love and duty, the changing face of the monarchy and the private side of the family, the series will bring fresh perspectives to key events and relationships.

“The British Monarchy is an endlessly fascinating subject, evidenced by the success we’ve had so far on Channel 5 with our other royal strands. Being able to provide a fresh angle on some of the best-known royal events and sagas is something we know will appeal to our audience,” Cherry Yeandle, Senior Manager, Acquisitions & Co-Productions, Channel 5 said. “The project is also enabling us to build on our relationship and synergies with Network 10 in Australia.”

Back2back’s Productions Founder/Managing Director, David Notman-Watt says “We are delighted to be partnering up with Parade Media Group on The Royals Revealed, an ambitious and timely series that will shed new light on some of the most important events in recent Royal history.”

The series is set to air later this year.

Late last year, Network 10 and Channel 5 announced With Intent, the first joint co-funded production since the ViacomCBS merger.
