Impossible Television

Three corporate mergers later, via Carlton then Granada, we ended up as an unknown part of ITV Productions. It didn't stop us making our successful series, everything from preschool cartoons through BAFTA-nominated youth series and the world’s first topical animated sketch show to late-night comedy and factual shows.

In October 2004, company founder Peter Scott bought out the whole kit and caboodle and decamped to Brighton to form a regionally-based indie. Everyone else came too, the producers and writers to Brighton, our top-notch animation team to a new studio in the centre of London.

We’ve turned our hands to everything right across the board, having worked in comedy (being David Walliams’ first producers, to working with Ronnie Ancona, Clive Anderson, Hugh Laurie, Brian Cant, Richard Briers and Tom Baker) to factual shows, gameshows to titles and branding, mainstream to frankly rude, preschool through children’s to youth, animation and non-cartoony.

We’ve also worked within the advertising industry with giants such as Viacom, GM, Coca-Cola and Wrigley’s, everything from creating the campaign to delivering on-air animated and filmed ads at a fraction of the usual cost.

As well as devising and making our own stuff, we work for other companies animating their ideas, from inserts to whole shows.

Impossible Television is run by Peter Scott, a writer/producer/exec with fifteen years’ experience in TV. As well as Impossible TV, Peter cut his teeth at Hewland International, rising from junior researcher to head of development before becoming Head of Stupid Ideas at the legendary L!VE TV. But he makes proper things now. Honest.
