Summary

- The ownership stake moved from 51% to 75% recently.
- Two Cities Television produces shows like Blue Lights and Amadeus.
STV Studios has expanded its ownership in Two Cities Television, raising its stake from 51% to 75% as per a recent Companies House filing. This move aligns with the initial plan established when STV first acquired a majority holding in early 2024.
Two Cities Television, co-led by Michael Jackson and Stephen Wright, is based in London and New York. The company has delivered successful seasons of the BBC police procedural 'Blue Lights' and the limited series 'Amadeus' for Sky. Upcoming projects include 'Army of Shadows' for Channel 4 and Canal+ and an RTÉ series starring Kate Mulgrew.
This latest investment from STV Studios, which already holds stakes in other drama indies and recently partnered with Kevin McKidd's Ferryman Films, reinforces its strategic backing for Two Cities' production slate. The indie aims to maintain ongoing series while developing new limited series projects.
