2001 Peter Collins writes ‘I’m now an executive producer of factual documentaries at a company called Pioneer Productions. I recently exec produced Britain’s Polar Bear
Cub for Channel 4 that followed the ambitious attempt to breed polar bears at Inverness Wildlife Park in Scotland – resulting in a very cute baby polar bear! I also produced a history special with Lucy Worsley called Lucy Worsley’s Fireworks for a Tudor Queen for BBC4 in which we recreated a famous Tudor fireworks display laid on for Elizabeth I at Kenilworth Castle. Finally I recently made a three part BBC2 series that went behind the scenes of the new aircraft carrier HMS Queen Elizabeth.’
