Moon&Back TV Information

Moon&Back Media is a partnership between Nigel Hall, Dawn Airey and Russ Lindsay borne out of a longstanding relationship at the highest level of the global television industry, where the three multi award winning founders have been launching talent, creating IP and producing / commissioning the world’s most successful television shows for over three decades. REALSCREEN: https://realscreen.com/2023/09/27/asylum-entertainment-group-invests-in-new-uk-prodco-moonback-media/ Emmy® Award-winning production house Asylum Entertainment Group (Asylum), part of Endeavor’s nonscripted content group, today announced an investment in newly launched production company Moon&Back Media.   Based in London, Moon&Back Media was founded by multi-BAFTA-winning producer Nigel Hall (Britain’s Got Talent, The X Factor, I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here!), seasoned broadcast leader Dawn Airey (C4, C5, ITV, Sky) and premier talent manager Russ Lindsay (Ant & Dec, Simon Cowell).  Hall, Lindsay and Airey – longtime collaborators with rich and varied experience, skills and relationships – reunited to launch the company to create talent-driven international formats. The stake offers Moon&Back access to Asylum's global portfolio while expanding Asylum’s footprint into the UK.  Hall’s success is highlighted by his work as former Head of Light Entertainment at ITV, creating hits like Celebrity Stars in their Eyes, You’ve Been Framed and Saturday Night Takeaway. Later, Lindsay – who, as co-founder of UK-based talent agency James Grant (YMU), had been managing top-tier talent – pulled in Hall to forge Syco Entertainment with Simon Cowell. As Managing Director, Hall co-created, formatted and executive produced the two biggest formats in the last 20 years: the UK and global versions of The X Factor and the Got Talent franchise. Through Hall’s stewardship, The X Factor spawned local versions in 56 countries while Got Talent currently airs in more than 190 international territories.
