ITV Orders Trans Child Facility Doc; ‘Canada’s Ultimate Challenge’ Creator Staffs Up; ‘Dennis & Gnasher’ Firm Hire; Canadian Media’s Climate Change Pledge — Global Briefs
ITV Orders Trans Child Facility Doc ITV has greenlit a documentary series exploring the rise and fall of the UK’s only dedicated NHS service for trans children.
The Tavistock Centre’s Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) has attracted plenty of headlines over the past few years and The Clinic will probe what happened at the treatment center, which was recently ordered to close – leaving thousands of children in medical limbo.
Rogan Productions Scotland is producing. “The Tavistock GIDS clinic has been such an important story not just for anyone interested in trans issues, but the wider discussion over recent years around gender,” said EP Mark Hedgecoe. “It has been utterly fascinating to be able to talk to many of those involved, on all sides, and piece together what has happened there over the years.” ‘Canada’s Ultimate Challenge’ Creator TGC Staffs Up LA’s TGC Global Entertainment is staffing up.
The formats and unscripted company has drafted in a handful of international sales agents following its launch in January. Cecilia Ingebrigtsen has joined to oversee Europe and Nordic sales after leaving Magnify Media earlier this year, as Magnify’s catalogue was subsumed into parent ITV Studios.
