Discovery UK has greenlit four new home-shot shows for its lifestyle and entertainment portfolio, including two new Food Network titles.<\/p>\n
Produced by Hungry Gap Productions in co-production with Peas in a Pot for Food Network, Rachel Khoo\u2019s Simple Pleasures<\/em> follows the cook in her country kitchen as she makes her favorite recipes using everyday ingredients. Gok\u2019s Easy Asian<\/em>, produced by Sidney Street Productions for Food Network, takes viewers into Gok\u2019s London home as he prepares simple versions of Asian food classics.<\/p>\n For HGTV, Angel Eye produced the tentatively titled Restoring the Good Life<\/em>, which follows upcycling and design enthusiasts Kate Humble, Zoe Pocock and Max McMurdo as they work their magic on a range of redesigns and reinventions. Rounding out the new commissions, Countdown To I Do<\/em>, produced by Studio 71 for TLC, revisits couples one year on from filming intimate wedding TLC YouTube show Countdown To I Do<\/em>.<\/p>\n Clare Laycock, senior VP and head of lifestyle and entertainment brands at Discovery UK and Ireland, said: \u201cIt\u2019s great to be working again with the fabulous Rachel Khoo and Gok Wan on these two new food shows. Showing home cookery at its very best, these intimate formats will inspire our foodie viewers with delicious, accessible recipes they can recreate at home. There\u2019s also never been a better time to revamp your living environment, and Restoring the Good Life<\/em> will help viewers inject some love back into their homes and gardens. While Countdown To I Do<\/em> brings TLC fans a new twist on the ever-popular weddings genre.\u201d<\/p>\n Charlotte Reid, head of commissioning for lifestyle and entertainment at Discovery UK, added: \u201cWe are excited to be making these timely and timeless series. It\u2019s great to be able to innovate and be solution-based and nimble in this environment, which the producers we work with do brilliantly. And we\u2019re especially grateful to our talent on these shows who are often not only letting us into their homes, but often taking on many behind the scenes responsibility and tasks.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Discovery UK has greenlit four new home-shot shows for its lifestyle and entertainment portfolio, including two new Food Network titles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":14534,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[613,213],"class_list":["post-14533","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-discovery-uk","tag-food-network","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
