Prospero Productions' spin-off 'Opal Hunters: Red Dirt Road Trip' is set to premiere on Discovery April 13.
Panthers and pumas are alive and well in the Australian bush and big cat expert Vaughan King is on a quest to prove it. The former big cat keeper at Australia Zoo has teamed up with veteran researchers John Turner and Simon Townsend to investigate recent sightings of these elusive predators. Their aim is to prove the existence of a living population of big cats in the Australian bush, creatures whom authorities deny exist.
Discovery Australia has ordered two more seasons of 'Demolition Down Under' and a second season of 'Aussie Mega Mechanics', both from WildBear Entertainment.
By virtue of shows set in isolated locations and shot with small crews, Discovery has been able to keep its Australian commissions in production despite the impact of COVID-19.
Discovery has upped its Australian commissions with 'Sydney Harbour Force', a ten-hour ob-doc series from WTFN.
Discovery Australia and UK have commissioned another 40 episodes, across two seasons, of Electric Pictures' 'Aussie Gold Hunters'.
Discovery has added to its factual slate with a new series set to follow Australian and New Zealand towing companies as they battle it out to secure lucrative contracts.
After producing five seasons of 'Aussie Gold Hunters', Electric Pictures has promoted Robin Shingleton to executive producer within the company.
