Studio Lambert has hired Darrell Olsen in the role of head of unscripted for Studio Lambert North, establishing the company\u2019s new regional base in Manchester.<\/p>\n

Olsen has been executive producer on BBC Two\u2019s Dragons\u2019 Den<\/em> for the last two years and was previously series editor of the show. He takes up the new role in January and will report to CEO Stephen Lambert and Tim Harcourt, Studio Lambert\u2019s creative director.<\/p>\n

Production of some of Studio Lambert\u2019s returning series will move to Manchester next year, and the company will also develop and produce new series there. Studio Lambert North marks the company\u2019s third production base, adding to its offices in London and Los Angeles.<\/p>\n

\u201cEstablishing a permanent regional base is a significant step for us,\u201d said Lambert. \u201cI\u2019m delighted someone with Darrell\u2019s considerable experience and talent has agreed to spearhead our ambitious plans. We appreciate the pressure on U.K. broadcasters to commission out-of-London and moving the production of some of our returning series to Manchester means Studio Lambert North will get off to a flying start.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have hugely enjoyed working with the Dragons\u2019 Den<\/em> team in Manchester over the last four years and I am very proud of what we have achieved,\u201d added Olsen, \u201cbut I feel it\u2019s time to take on new challenges and the opportunity to set up a regional business with Studio Lambert, a company I\u2019ve long admired, was irresistible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
