Reality is ever more important to the portfolio, as we pivot to All4, and he will help us expand our offering.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mcfarlane said, \u201cI am so happy to be joining Alf Lawrie and his team at Channel 4. Over the years, I have been lucky enough to work on some of the channel\u2019s noisiest brands and have always been a fan of the anarchy, mischief and conversations that Channel 4\u2019s shows can bring.
