Historian

Congratulations to Hannah Wyatt, currently Managing Director of Boundless, (formerly part of Talkback Thames, and owned by the RTL Group) is to join BBC Studios as Genre Director, Factual Entertainment and Events, and she also gets to sit on Mark Linsey's evergrowing Executive Committee (salaries now safe from disclosure). Her entertaining portfolio will range from oversight of Top Gear to the Festival of Remembrance. Hannah is the daughter of former BBC oligarch, Will, and has production credits including "Underage and Pregnant", "The Bill made me famous" and "The Hairy Bikers' Mississippi Adventure".

Hannah studied history at Sussex University. “Studying anything that makes you think about the world, about the past, present, future, is good preparation for the TV business. After all, in essence, TV is all about people, their stories, and telling them. From that point on, the TV business is a straightforward industry, as well as an exciting one.”
