Dyke is currently working with Jane Featherstone (<em>Chernobyl<\/em>, <em>Giri\/Haji<\/em>, <em>Utopia<\/em>) and Sister Executive Producer Chris Fry (<em>Chernobyl<\/em>, <em>Giri\/ Haji<\/em>, <em>Humans<\/em>) on a number of new scripted projects.<\/p>\n<p>As a freelance producer and exec, Dyke has overseen two seasons of the BBC\/AMC co-production <em>The Split<\/em> for Sister.

This is an exciting chance to collaborate with the extraordinarily talented creatives in this area and beyond, and to recognize the need to create more opportunities outside of London. Sister is a brilliantly empowering company who always put great storytelling first and I can\u2019t wait to explore what we can do together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Featherstone, Sister co-founder and chief creative officer for London, said: \u201cI\u2019m so thrilled Sister is able to support and encourage Lucy\u2019s ambitions in the north. We share her passion and drive to continue to collaborate with established partners as well as seek out, connect with and develop emerging voices from across the U.K. It\u2019s a brilliant opportunity; one which we\u2019re all incredibly excited about and inspired by. I for one, can\u2019t wait to see what the team starts to generate with such a wealth of phenomenal talent.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lucy Dyke joins Sister\u2014the independent content studio co-founded by Jane Featherstone, Stacey Snider and Elisabeth Murdoch\u2014to lead its new northern production hub.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":14665,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[4388],"class_list":["post-14664","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-sister","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
