Pinewood Studios Changes Course, Shutting TV Department

Listen up! Pinewood Studios, a name that's synonymous with blockbuster movies, has decided to close its TV unit. This move comes after they reviewed their business and found that the UK is seeing a slowdown in comedy and entertainment shows. Pinewood has three huge studios dedicated to TV shows like Taskmaster, RuPaul’s Drag Race UK, and even Gordon Ramsay’s Future Food Stars. Don't worry though, any shows booked for 2024 and 2025 will still happen. Pinewood was clear about their plans. They're going to shut their TV department that handles light entertainment TV for broadcasters. But that won't affect any other film or TV productions happening at their sites. They're proud of the work their TV team has done, hosting many top UK shows. You might know Pinewood best for its massive film credits, like James Bond and Deadpool 3. It’s interesting that they’re shifting focus, even though TV shows might not be as popular right now. Maybe they're eyeing other kinds of shows or even different projects entirely.
