A new television series featuring Australian wildlife expert, Tim Faulkner, has been acquired by Thai pay-TV channel, TrueVisions. The Wild Life of Tim Faulkner is a 10 x 30’ series produced by Australian production company Ziggy Entertainment (a WTFN Subsidiary) and distributed by Fred Media.
Tim Faulkner is the Operations Manager at the world-famous Australian Reptile Park and is a committed conservationist and leader in the battle to save the ferocious Tasmanian Devil from extinction. He is already well-known to television audiences around the world as the wild life expert on the hit animal series Bondi Vet.
FRED General Manager, Michael Aldrich said: “It’s an exciting time for us. Tim has appeared in a number of our shows as a wildlife expert and the feedback from audiences has always been fantastic.”
“It was only a matter of time before we found the right series for him and we are encouraged by the positive response we have had from broadcasters so far.”
TrueVisions Director of Programme Acquisitions, Arthit Promprasit said: “We have known about Tim for some time and think his new series will appeal to our audience. We look forward to building his name across our networks.”
The Wild Life of Tim Faulkner will premiere on TrueVisions’ True Explore channel in mid-2014. The programme is currently broadcast in over 120 territories on multiple networks including Animal Planet Europe, TVB Hong Kong, Discovery India and Nine Network.
Series 2 is in production and set to be released in October 2014.
