Wilson comes to Two Rivers from Fifty Fathoms Productions. His EP credits include <em>Luther<\/em> (for BBC Studios\/BBC One), <em>The A Word<\/em> (Fifty Fathoms\/Keshet UK\/BBC One) and <em>The Worst Witch<\/em> (CBBC\/ZDFE\/Netflix), while producer credits include <em>Doctor Who<\/em> (BBC Wales\/BBC One), <em>Whitechapel<\/em> (Carnival\/ITV1) and <em>Our Zoo<\/em> (Big Talk Productions\/BBC One).<\/p>\n<p>Wilson said: \u201cI\u2019m incredibly impressed by Two Rivers\u2019 ambition and energy and the experience of the creative team Alan has assembled. The appetite for new stories and new voices has never been greater, and we\u2019re going to put the writer at the heart of everything we do. I want Two Rivers Drama to support established writers and new talent alike and help them bring their vision to the screen. We\u2018re going to tell original, exciting stories that will resonate around the world, and I can\u2019t wait to get started.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kathryn Shrubb also joins Two Rivers, as development executive. Shrubb was formerly senior script editor at Tall Story Pictures, where her credits included <em>Bancroft<\/em> (ITV). Shrubb was previously a script editor at BBC Studios, working on the crime drama <em>Luther<\/em> (BBC One). Prior to this, she was an assistant script editor on <em>Silent Witness<\/em> (BBC One) and <em>Three Girls<\/em> (BBC One), among others.<\/p>\n<p>Alan Clements, managing director of Two Rivers Media, said: \u201cDrama is very important to the development of Two Rivers, so we are very excited to have Marcus and Kathryn on board. Not only have they both been involved in some of the U.K.\u2019s highest-profile drama projects of the last 15 years, they are used to producing drama which is creatively exciting and commercially successful. That\u2019s the perfect combination for us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is particularly exciting to be finalizing our senior creative team with the appointment of Marcus. I loved working with him on <em>Taggart<\/em>, so know that he is the perfect person to be leading our push into drama.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two Rivers Media is ramping up its push into drama with two new hires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":12227,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[3315],"class_list":["post-12226","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-two-rivers-media","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
