She made at least \u00a31 million, possibly much more, before a team of her victims came together to fight for justice.<\/p>\n<p><em>Filthy Ritual<\/em> is hosted by Hannah Maguire and Suruthi Bala. It is created by Global and NOVEL.<\/p>\n<p>Monumental Television, founded by Alison Owen and Debra Hayward, will recreate the podcast into a scripted drama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were absolutely gripped by the stranger-than-fiction true-crime story of<em> Filthy Ritual<\/em> and fell in love with the quirky Hampstead community who came together to get justice,\u201d Owen said. \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be entrusted with bringing this hugely popular and thrilling podcast to the screen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Filthy Ritual<\/em> is one of the biggest podcast hits of the last 12 months, and it\u2019s wonderful that it\u2019s now being brought to life for TV,\u201d said Vicky Etchells, head of news and factual for podcasts at Global. \u201cDozens of TV and film production companies pitched for the adaptation rights, which is a testament to the incredible storytelling from the team at Global and NOVEL. Monumental are experts in turning female-driven stories into blockbusters, so I can\u2019t wait to work with them on the TV adaptation of <em>Filthy Ritual<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monumental Television, owned by ITV Studios, has secured the rights to adapt Global\u2019s true-crime podcast Filthy Ritual into a scripted drama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":19991,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[8018,8377,274,119,8378,5173,8379],"class_list":["post-19977","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-alison-owen","tag-filthy-ritual","tag-global","tag-itv-studios","tag-juliette-dsouza","tag-monumental-television","tag-vicky-etchells","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Monumental Television Scores TV Rights to Filthy Ritual - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Monumental Television Scores TV Rights to Filthy Ritual - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Monumental Television, owned by ITV Studios, has secured the rights to adapt Global\u2019s true-crime podcast Filthy Ritual into a scripted drama.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-01-17T16:46:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-01-18T15:55:29+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/01\/MonumentalTelevision-FilthyRitual-0124.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"396\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/\",\"name\":\"Monumental Television Scores TV Rights to Filthy Ritual - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-01-17T16:46:51+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-01-18T15:55:29+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/monumental-television-scores-tv-rights-to-filthy-ritual\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Monumental Television Scores TV Rights to Filthy Ritual\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
