LONDON: Liz Mills, formerly the head of reality TV at Endemol UK, is launching her own independent production company, MillsyMac, which will focus on factual and factual-entertainment formats and series.

During her time with Endemol UK, Mills launched Pet Rescue and The Salon. She was also previously the executive producer at BBC, where she ran Crimewatch UK, among a range of other factual programs. She is also founder of Top TV Academy and mentor for Women in Film and Television. Most recently, Mills developed and executive produced Restoration Roadshow, a 20-part series that aired on BBC Two.

MillsyMac is currently in talks with several broadcasters about prospective commissions and future productions.

Mills commented of her new endeavor: “The foundation of MillsyMac is our tailored approach to development and production. Our focus will be on bringing to life issues and stories that are both relevant and engaging in today’s society, and to tell them in an entertaining, accessible and compelling way. Above all, MillsyMac is driven by a passion for distinctive and innovative ideas that shock, create noise and have mass appeal.”
