NEW FAMILY HISTORY TV SHOW

Plum Pictures are currently working on the development of a new television programme for Channel 4 and they would love to hear from you.

The new series will examine and explore individual stories of British heroism, adventure, exploration and ingenuity.

Naturally, these stories are not in short supply, however there are two slight twists:

1. They need a living family descendant to help them retell these stories – who they will film following in the footsteps, reliving that exciting tale.

2. Most importantly, there needs to be an object at the centre of each story that they hope to rebuild/recreate. The object itself could be anything from a makeshift boat used in an escape attempt to a beloved motorcycle or car that took your ancestor on an adventure. It might only exist as a sketch in your Granddad’s war diary, letters or memoirs... a dream that is yet to be realised. They are open to any ideas!

Have you (or any of your members) got a gripping story that you think is worth being retold.

If you or anyone you know has such a story hidden away, they would love to hear from you ASAP.
