WASHINGTON, D.C. — Blue Ant Media’s Love Nature channel announced Monday it has commissioned a new wildlife series, Ireland’s Wild Islands, from Irish production company Crossing the Line.
Produced in partnership with RTÉ and ARTE France, the new series is hosted by Irish wildlife and outdoor television presenter Eoin Warner (pictured), who travels by sailboat down the western coast of Ireland to explore the wildlife inhabiting the country’s battered Atlantic islands.
The Eoin Warner-hosted version of Ireland’s Wild Islands is available as a three-part series. An extended cut of the series includes two additional, non-hosted episodes that highlight the landscape, wildlife and the majestic, storm-battered islands themselves.
Created by Crossing the Line, the series is directed by Emmy award-winning documentary filmmaker John Murray (The Farthest, On a River in Ireland and Broken Tail) and produced by Cepa Giblin (Broken Tail, Wild Ireland, Wild Journeys). James Manfull will executive produce the series on behalf of Love Nature. Blue Ant International will oversee pre-sales and international licensing for the series.
