WILDFIRE TELEVISION is an independent producer of top-end factual programmes for broadcast TV.
In production in 2011:
'Gods and Monsters'
In this visceral five part series, Tony Robinson investigates the extraordinary and shocking beliefs that built Britain - and changed history.
From the brutal human sacrifices of Iron Age Britain, through the stomach-churning supernatural medicine of the middle ages, to the horrifying witch-hunts and exorcisms of the 16th and 17th centuries (and beyond), Tony's remarkable journey takes him to some of the darkest moments in our past.
For Channel 4 and National Geographic.
'Digging the Great Escape'
On the night of 24th March 1944 76 allied airmen crawled down a tunnel they'd painstakingly dug out of a supposedly escape proof POW camp, and vanished into the darkness. This was the Great Escape, immortalised by the Hollywood film, and famous around the globe as an extraordinary story of courage and ingenuity.
For nearly 70 years the tunnel has remained undisturbed - and with it the final secrets of the remarkable story of the Great Escape.
Now a crack team of engineers, archaeologists and historians have been granted unprecedented and exclusive access to excavate Stalag Luft III and tunnel Harry, and they've devised an extraordinarily ambitious plan to reveal those secrets...
