Reef Television enjoys successful trip on BBC Two with 'Uncharted Territories'

Reef Television is currently enjoying a successful run on BBC Two with their hit series Uncharted Territory.
The series takes viewers to interesting European destinations where it is still possible to buy a beautiful home for the price of a family car in the UK.
Managing Director Richard Farmbrough, the executive producer on most Reef projects, has a background that includes BBC Music & Arts and Talkback Productions and his credits include 'Making Masterpieces' (BBC TWO), 'Return of the Architect' (BBC FOUR), 'House Doctor' (five), and 'Your Money or Your Life' (BBC TWO).
Reef Television specialise in arts documentaries and lifestyle programmes and have enjoyed a raft of commissions from BBC ONE, BBC TWO and UKTV Style, and in particular, Reef has established a strong reputation for lifestyle programmes, covering such areas as property, gardens, travel and antiques.
Past productions include the hit BBC TWO Daytime series 'Sun Sea & Bargain Spotting'. Presented by charismatic antiques expert Chris Gower, the show achieved an audience share of 25%, regularly winning it’s slot when it was broadcast in early 2005. Other successes include 'First Time Buyers' (UKTV Style), 'Perfect Properties' (UKTV Style) 'Model Gardens' (UKTV Style), and 2004’s hit daytime show 'Put Your Money Where Your House Is' (BBC ONE, UKTV Style), which achieved an audience share of 23%.
The company have a number of productions in development, including travel property show 'Uncharted Territory' for BBC TWO and 'Foreign Exchange', a BBC Daytime commission which follows on a successful pilot broadcasting earlier this year.
