It follows the U.K.\u2019s growing obsession with cocaine, offering fresh insight and access into the drug world, from the users, the dealers and the addicts, as well as from those individuals who are trying to stop the spread of the drug. Each episode will have its own distinct focus and will follow a small group of main contributors. The series will transmit on Channel 5 later this year.<\/p>\n<p>Guy Davies, the commissioning editor for factual at Channel 5, said, \u201cThis latest hard-hitting documentary series tackles another major issue affecting millions of people in Britain today. The use of cocaine has moved from elite party drug into the mainstream and many believe we\u2019re in the grip of an epidemic.\u00a0VICE Studios has found a way into this world and we\u2019re thrilled to be working with them on this documentary series, presenting shocking new facts around the drug and its ever-growing popularity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Sutcliffe, the managing director of VICE Studios UK, commented, &#8220;Leaning on VICE UK&#8217;s long-standing reputation of producing unvarnished, access-based programming and hard-hitting journalism, <em>Cocaine<\/em> marks an ideal first third-party commission for VICE Studios UK, as we look to create a broad range of impactful content for new audiences. In working with Channel 5, we&#8217;re excited to be unveiling fascinating and often shocking new insights into the drug&#8217;s distribution and usage, and explore how it affects all facets of U.K. society, spanning the rich, poor, old and young.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Channel 5 has commissioned the documentary series\u00a0Cocaine: Britain\u2019s Epidemic (working title), produced by VICE Studios UK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[915,2818,2819],"class_list":["post-11016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-channel-5","tag-cocaine-britains-epidemic","tag-vice-studios-uk","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Channel 5 Orders Series on Cocaine Use in the U.K. - TVREAL<\/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\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Channel 5 Orders Series on Cocaine Use in the U.K. - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Channel 5 has commissioned the documentary series\u00a0Cocaine: Britain\u2019s Epidemic (working title), produced by VICE Studios UK.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2018-03-13T14:51:31+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2018-03-13T16:58:12+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/worldscreen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/\",\"name\":\"Channel 5 Orders Series on Cocaine Use in the U.K. - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2018-03-13T14:51:31+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2018-03-13T16:58:12+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-orders-series-on-cocaine-use-in-u-k\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Channel 5 Orders Series on Cocaine Use in the U.K.\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
