Hello and thank you for taking the time to read this!
I am currently working on a new series for Channel 4 with the working title of “The Great Escapers”. We are looking to feature British people who have moved to both Spain to set up a new life. We are not just concentrating on those people who have retired, rather people who have headed overseas to start a new career or set up a new business.
We are looking to feature a mixture of people from a variety of backgrounds – probably in the Malaga/Marbella area of Spain – and at different stages of their moves.
We would like to meet people who are settled into their lives but also people who are either about to make the move or meet people with fledging business or as they first arrive in the country.
We are also looking for people who maybe have things coming up in their lives that we could film – maybe a big celebration, a wedding, a child starting a new school, a new job or, as I mentioned above, a new business – to show how this perhaps differs from the UK. Perhaps there is someone whose business is undergoing some refurbishment or they are preparing for a big event.
This will be a positive show and one that focusses on real people and their lives. We aim to show the benefits of life abroad and also the challenges while also hopefully providing some advice to others thinking of making the move.
Do you have an interesting story to tell?
