Article Abstract:
Wildlife programmes are becoming increasingly popular among television audiences in the UK, and this is fuelling significant developments in this sector. Large producers and broadcasters are likely to derive benefits from the growing interest in wildlife programmes, but this will not necessarily be the case for small independent producers, which will be under great pressure to produce more programming. Producing wildlife films involves many uncertainties and difficulties, and therefore requires a great deal of dedication.

Article Abstract:
Almost all television programmes relating to natural history in the UK were made by the BBC's Natural History Unit or Anglia's Survival team until the mid-1980s. However, a number of small independent production companies have been established over recent years. There is strong demand for the services of natural history cameramen and producers, but the most talented tend to still work for the BBC's Natural History Unit.
