Boom time for Lorraine Heggessey
|
Version 0 of 1. Outgoing ITV drama chiefs Laura Mackie and Sally Haynes have reunited with former BBC1 controller Lorraine Heggessey to create a new production company, MainStreet Pictures. The indie will be part of Heggessey's expanding Boom Pictures stable of companies, which also includes IT Crowd creator Graham Linehan's Delightful Industries. Heggessey knows the pair well, having worked with them when they were at the BBC. Friends Reunited, however, was presumably not among the considerations when it came to naming the new indie. Mackie and Haynes' ITV drama credits include Downton Abbey, Mr Selfridge and Appropriate Adult. MainStreet Pictures will launch in July with a Boom … sorry, bang. |
