72 Films has landed a commission from BBC Factual for Kings and Queens: The Story of the Monarchy, a six-part series fusing dramatic reenactments, graphics, and insights from historians, with Fremantle handling international distribution.

BBC Factual has commissioned docs on Brexit and Anne Frank and added a new episode to its Elon Musk series for BBC Two and iPlayer, as it affirms its commitment to a broad history slate.
