JULIAN BELLAMY

Managing director, ITV Studios Bellamy runs the U.K.’S largest TV production and distribution group, ITV Studios, responsible for long-running soap “Coronation Street,” drama “Bodyguard,” and such formats as “I’m a Celebrity ... Get Me out of Here!” Respected and wellliked, he was head of programs at Channel 4 and is former commissioning chief at Discovery Networks Intl. ITV Studios, now home to more than 50 production banners, has been crucial to commercial broadcaster ITV’S strategy to diversify from advertising. The 2015 acquisition of “The Voice” producer Talpa Media was seen as a key moment for ITV Studios, and for Bellamy.
