She is currently series producing the second season.<\/p>\n Webb-Lamb said: \u201cGilly is rare in having the breadth of experience we need in factual entertainment. She has a wicked sense of humor and an instinctive feel for a cracking story. She has dedicated her career to making programs that entertain whilst offering a commentary on the world around us, and we are really lucky that she is bringing her passion for the genre to the channel.”<\/p>\n Greenslade said: “Working alongside Simon and Lorraine has been an incredible experience and while I\u2019m sad to be leaving at such an exciting time for Label1, I am delighted to be joining Kelly and the factual entertainment team at Channel 4. I absolutely love the sort of smart, warm, revealing formats that Channel 4 has always been at the forefront of innovating. The chance to work on much-loved existing series, and to commission the next wave of ambitious formats, is simply irresistible.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Gilly Greenslade is joining Channel 4 as commissioning editor for factual entertainment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[289],"class_list":["post-9984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-channel-4","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
