INTELLIGENT FACTUAL

October Films is a leading British independent film and television production company based in London.

We produce content for broadcasters worldwide. We have a well-established reputation for intelligent factual programming - from hard-hitting current affairs to factual entertainment series; from observational documentary to history and science programmes.

We pride ourselves in our proven ability to adapt quickly to the developing tastes of audiences, while new distribution channels have allowed us to deliver our content to a variety of media platforms.

Our productions have received over 90 international awards during our twenty years in television production.

In September 2009 we were once again voted one of the Top Ten Independent Producers in the annual Televisual Peer Poll; and then again early this year we were also voted one of the Top Ten Indies in the Broadcast Magazine Peer Poll - recognition from our industry colleagues that we have enjoyed every year for the last twelve years.
