The award recognises the show’s long-standing commitment to developing new talent behind the scenes. Its production processes have helped launch the careers of many leading figures in both the UK and international film and television industries.

With 8.7 billion iPlayer streams in 2023 and 71% weekly UK audience reach, the broadcaster is betting on digital growth to counter rising costs and flat revenue. Annual Plan outlines strategic response to inflation, license fee freeze, and global competition.

The broadcasters have already commissioned two shows together, the spy thriller "Honey," and the second series of the mystery thriller co-produced with Netflix, "A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder."

"The Cage" is an Element Pictures (a Fremantle company) production. Global sales will be handled by Fremantle.

Paris Lees is the creator and lead writer of "What It Feels Like For A Girl," and Brian Welsh ("Beats", "Black Mirror") is lead director. The drama will arrive on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three later this year. ITV Studios will handle international distribution.
