ITN produces Margaret Thatcher documentary series for Telegraph Media Group
Telegraph Media Group has announced that it has tapped ITN On to produce a documentary series of eight original DVDs for Telegraph readers to be inserted in the Telegraph between April 14-19. The DVDs incorporate hours of original stock footage from ITN’s archive and are intended to provide a comprehensive account of Margaret Thatcher (the longest serving Prime Minister of the last century) starting with her life before entering politics, through her years as party leader then Prime Minister and her enduring legacy. Narrated by Anna Massey, this unique collaboration was an attempt to produce the definitive documentary series on Margaret Thatcher.
Jon Godel, Executive Producer of the series and Editor of ITN On said: “The ITN and Telegraph brands are both synonymous with high quality journalism, making this one of the finest and most comprehensive Margaret Thatcher documentary series to date. With our strong video production techniques and access to a vast archive, covermounts are a natural fit for our businesses that allow us to create compelling original programmes and deliver added value to our clients.”
Mike Moore, Head of Consumer Markets at TMG, said: “Telegraph Media Group is delighted to be able to offer our customers this great DVD set. Our Daily Telegraph, Sunday Telegraph and Telegraph.co.uk audiences will greatly enjoy watching this formidable production.
