Watch: Wise Owl Films – From Bruce Springsteen to the Yorkshire Shepherdess and the Brontes

Fresh from filming in America with Bruce Springsteen, the team from Wise Owl Films have joined Prolific North on a new podcast.

Not only are they producing a documentary about The Boss, their hit More4 series, Our Farm Next Door: Amanda, Clive and Kids, featuring Yorkshire shepherdess, Amanda Owen and her family, returns next week.

Executive Producer Mark Robinson and Development Executive and Series Producer, James Knight spoke to us about the complications of signing up major music stars; and the unique production process behind Our Farm Next Door.

They also discuss the impact of Channel 4’s arrival in Leeds and how the backing of a major label (they’re owned by Lime Pictures, which is in turn owned by All3Media) helped them through the pandemic.
