First Live HD Production For Fountain Studios

Sky 1's 'Noel's HQ', produced by Twofour Broadcast, is set to become the first live HD production to take advantage of Fountain Studios' recent £1.5m HD refit.
Filming of the five part series, which began on Sky 1 on January 17, follows in the wake of successful HD recordings of BBC3's sitcom 'Clone' and Sky Sport's 'The Cesc Fabregas Show'.
Fronted by Noel Edmonds, 'Noel's HQ' aims to inspire, encourage and empower viewers to contribute to life in Britain. Their live show successfully piloted at BBC Studios last year and taps into the frustration felt by viewers who perceive the UK changing for the worse and their communities, and therefore their lives, changing forever.
Mariana Spater, MD Fountain Studios, commented: "We are delighted to be welcoming 'Noel's HQ' and Twofour Broadcast to Fountain Studios and look forward to using our new high definition facilities to create a prestigious live prime time show for Sky."
