Eventually, Tulk-Hart became co-CEO of Buccaneer, and Durie became head of scripted at Cineflix Rights. In recent years, they worked together on titles such as <em>Whitstable Pearl<\/em> and <em>So Long, Marianne<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The entity that is now High Road was initially launched last summer by Tulk-Hart as Volteo Media.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this fractured market it really feels like there is space for a flexible dynamic approach to getting shows from IP to screen,\u201d Tulk-Hart and Durie said in a statement. \u201cWe\u2019re here to join the dots and have done so on a number of shows already.
