Following on from her immense success during her time at BBC and Sky, Lucy Lumsden has launched new independent television company, Yellow Door Productions in order to get “closer to the creative coal face”,
Lumsden is responsible for commissioning smash hits like Outnumbered, The Thick of It, Gavin and Stacey, Stella and Miranda, just to name a few.
This new London-based company has already signed a first look deal with ABC Studios, the production house behind Grey’s Anatomy, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., The Muppets and Scandal.
Yellow Door Productions is set to develop scripted ideas for the UK and US markets, and just like its name, opens up an exciting new venue for budding talent.
Patrick Morgan, executive vice-president of ABC Studios explained “Lucy is responsible for some of the UK’s most creative and internationally successful television. When we heard that she was making the transition to producer, we jumped at the chance to get into business with her.”
Commenting on this exciting ‘first look’ deal with ABC Studios, Lumsden expressed “I can’t think of a more exciting way to kick off this new chapter.”
