About Shed Productions
Shed Productions, part of the Shed Media Group, is an independent UK television production company, specialising in contemporary, original drama programming and content. It was established in 1998 by Eileen Gallagher, Brian Park, Ann McManus and Maureen Chadwick, who previously worked together at Granada Television.
Shed has developed a reputation for producing high quality long running drama series at a cost effective price for broadcasters. This reputation is based on the strength of its brands, most notably Waterloo Road for BBC1, currently in production for a fourth series of 20 x 60' representing 60 hours in total, Bad Girls and Footballers Wives' both iconic brands which consistently delivered mass prime-time audiences for ITV1. Shed is currently filming a new eight-part peak time drama, Hope Springs, for BBC1. Set in Scotland, it is a vibrant, thrilling and funny drama about four female ex-cons trying to go straight.
Shed retains control and ownership of the programme rights for all its productions and has a growing library in excess of 240 hours. Shed generates substantial additional revenue streams through exploitation of the ancillary and secondary rights in its programme brands through Outright Distribution, Shed Media's wholly owned distribution arm.
