I\u2019m thrilled she\u2019s taking on this expanded role. Stephen is second to none at crafting clever and compelling formats and to have him join the team is a real boost to our creative firepower. I can\u2019t wait to see the impact they\u2019ll both have on our next wave of shows.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ireland helped develop and executive produced <em>The Circle<\/em> for Channel 4 and Netflix and executive produced the first and second seasons of<em> The Traitors<\/em> for the BBC and Peacock. Most recently, she served as showrunner on <em>Squid Game: The Challenge<\/em> for Netflix. \u201cI&#8217;ve been lucky enough to work on some of the most exciting and ambitious unscripted shows of recent years with an incredible team at Studio Lambert,&#8221; she said. &#8220;To continue to work on these projects whilst leading the development of other formats which are bold and distinct is something I can\u2019t wait to get started on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lovelock was most recently executive producer at Remarkable Entertainment, lead the delivery of a 120-episode series of <em>Deal or No Deal<\/em> as well as Soccer Aid 2025. \u201cI&#8217;m genuinely excited to be joining Studio Lambert, a company I&#8217;ve always admired because of their extraordinary track record for delivering innovative, high-quality formats that travel the world,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I can&#8217;t wait to join such a talented and respected team and help create the next generation of original unscripted hits with them.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Studio Lambert has upped Toni Ireland to deputy creative director, while Stephen Lovelock is joining as executive producer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":15285,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[4457,261,3438,4458],"class_list":["post-15284","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-stephen-lovelock","tag-studio-lambert","tag-tim-harcourt","tag-toni-ireland","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Senior Unscripted Appointments for Studio Lambert - TVFORMATS<\/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\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Senior Unscripted Appointments for Studio Lambert - TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Studio Lambert has upped Toni Ireland to deputy creative director, while Stephen Lovelock is joining as executive producer.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVFORMATS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-09-09T14:50:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-09-09T14:53:22+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2025\/09\/Lambert-Appointments-925.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\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\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/\",\"name\":\"Senior Unscripted Appointments for Studio Lambert - TVFORMATS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2025-09-09T14:50:10+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-09-09T14:53:22+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/senior-unscripted-appointments-for-studio-lambert\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Senior Unscripted Appointments for Studio Lambert\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/\",\"name\":\"TVFORMATS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvformats\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\",\"name\":\"Mansha Daswani\",\"description\":\"Mansha Daswani is the editor-in-chief and associate publisher of World Screen.
