Appointment of Head of Development - Ten Alps TV and Radio

Ten Alps Plc ("Ten Alps" or the "Group"), the factual media group, is pleased to announce today the appointment of Selina Mehta as Head of Development of Ten Alps TV and Radio. Selina will be responsible for the development strategies across the TV and radio assets of the Group which include Blakeway, Blakeway North, Brook Lapping, Below the Radar, Films of Record and Ten Alps Asia.

Selina joined the Ten Alps Group in 2008 and, prior to her appointment as Head of Development of Ten Alps TV, Selina was Head of Development for Blakeway. Before joining Ten Alps, she was the Head of Development for Documentaries and Specialist Factual at the BBC.  During her tenure at both Ten Alps and the BBC, Selina has been responsible for a wide range of history, arts, current affairs and observational documentaries. 

Fiona Stourton, Creative Director of Ten Alps TV said:

"I'm delighted that Selina is going to join me in developing a coordinated creative strategy for the Ten Alps Group of Companies. She has an impressive track record of developing programmes in a range of genres and for a number of different Executive Producers when at the BBC. Since joining Blakeway she has helped us successfully develop a wider portfolio. Now all our companies will be able to benefit from those creative and management skills.

 Selina Mehta said:

This is a great chance for all of us and for me personally to work with a team of brilliant Executives and Producers and to pool the ideas and creativity across the group.  The re-structure of development puts us on a stronger footing for the future and gives us the ability to innovate both in our ideas and the way that we work as a group.
