Lime Pictures has appointed Nick Johns to the role of head of development for unscripted in the U.K.<\/p>\n

Ben Crompton, who formerly held the position, joined the company\u2019s U.S. division as executive VP of development. Johns will report to Sarah Tyekiff, the company\u2019s head of unscripted, who, together with creative director Rebecca Kenny Smith, leads the company\u2019s slate of factual programming.<\/p>\n

Johns past credits include taking the creative lead developing and securing commissions on Dancing on Ice<\/em> for ITV Studios, Let\u2019s Dance for Comic Relief<\/em> (Whizz Kid Entertainment), Beat the Pack<\/em> (BBC) and Sex Tape<\/em> and And They\u2019re Off!<\/em> (STV).<\/p>\n

Prior to joining Lime Pictures, Johns had served as head of entertainment development for STV Productions in London since 2014. Before that, he was a development executive for Victory Television, the BBC and ITV Studios. At ITV, he worked as a senior producer on two seasons of I\u2019m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Tyekiff said: \u201cI am thrilled to have landed Nick for our U.K. development team at this exciting time for Lime. We have ambitious plans for the unscripted slate both here in the U.K. and internationally, and Nick\u2019s wealth of development experience, creative leadership and strong network relationships provides us with the final pillar to underpin an incredibly strong creative team.\u201d<\/p>\n

Johns added: \u201cI\u2019m delighted to be joining Lime during a time of such success, in the U.K. and internationally. They already make some of my favorite shows, so I\u2019m really excited to get cracking on their next generation of format hits under Sarah\u2019s determined and inspiring leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
