Sky1 Commissions New Docu-Series

LONDON: Sky1 HD and Sky1 have commissioned Middle Child Productions to produce a new 20×30-minute observational documentary series, tentatively titled Pet Police, turning the spotlight on animal cruelty.

Pet Police will follow the RSPCA and their special operation department in their daily pursuit of crimes committed against animals. Presented by Matt Bell, each episode will feature stories from inside Harmsworth Animal Hospital in London, where cases of cruelty and suffering are on the rise. Bell also goes on location with the RSPCA’s special operations unit as they try to catch those behind the crimes.

David Sumnall, the executive producer for Middle Child Productions, commented: “I am glad to team up with Sky1 HD to bring Pet Police to audiences. It will be an interesting, informative series covering everything from animal neglect and animal trafficking to animal welfare, re-homing and surgery that will serve to highlight the tireless work of the RSPCA.”
