The four-parter, produced by streaming service History Hit, will investigate a time capsule to reveal the daily lives of real ancient Romans.<\/p>\n<p>The brand-new <em>Emperor: The Rise and Fall of a Dynasty<\/em> will retell the stories of the cutthroat and turbulent years of the first five Emperors and the powerful women behind them. The brand new three-parter is an October Films and GroupM Motion Entertainment co-production.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming two-part <em>Endurance: Race to the Nile<\/em> follows the success of <em>Endurance: Race to the Pole<\/em> and will see explorers Ben Fogle and Dwayne Fields return. Co-produced by October Films and Krempelwood, the title will tell the story of the Victorian explorer Dr. Livingstone.<\/p>\n<p>These three commissions follow the recently announced <em>The Great Explorers with James May<\/em>; <em>To the Glory of God: Building Britain\u2019s Cathedrals<\/em>, with the Reverend Pat Allerton; and the <em>Jason Watkins Tower of London<\/em> special series.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Frow, Paramount\u2019s chief content officer for the U.K.,\u00a0 said: \u201cPremium factual content continues to attract strong audiences for us, and we are keen to offer our viewers more of what we know they enjoy. It\u2019s particularly exciting to extend the relationship that we have with fantastic on-screen talent like Jason Watkins whilst working with new-to-tv talent such as the Reverend Pat Allerton. Who better to guide us around the magnificent architecture of Britain\u2019s Cathedrals than someone who spends the majority of his time in such amazing buildings?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Channel 5 has ordered two new factual titles and a second season of the historical series Endurance, all set to premiere later this year and into 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3087,"featured_media":21878,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[915,9895,9896,9897],"class_list":["post-21877","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-channel-5","tag-emperor-the-rise-and-fall-of-a-dynasty","tag-endurance","tag-life-death-in-pompeii","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 Commissions New &amp; Returning Factual Titles - 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-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Channel 5 Commissions New &amp; Returning Factual Titles - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Channel 5 has ordered two new factual titles and a second season of the historical series Endurance, all set to premiere later this year and into 2025.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-08-21T15:27:11+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-08-21T15:27:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2024\/08\/C5-LifeAndDeathInPompeii.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\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-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/\",\"name\":\"Channel 5 Commissions New & Returning Factual Titles - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-08-21T15:27:11+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-08-21T15:27:15+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/channel-5-commissions-new-returning-factual-titles\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Channel 5 Commissions New &#038; Returning Factual Titles\"}]},{\"@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\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\",\"name\":\"Alexa Alfano\",\"description\":\"Alexa Alfano is associate editor at World Screen.
