Former Top Gear Editor, Andy Batten-Foster, joins Twofour as an Executive Producer. Andy has a very strong broadcast production background. He started out as a radio presenter going on to direct the Antiques Road Show and later to create the long running series 999 for BBC ONE. He was Head of Features at Granada Television (1996-1998) and Deputy Head of BBC Bristol (1998-2000). He produced the landmark series Magic for BBC TWO and also led the team that relaunched Top Gear in 2003. He has developed formats for both the UK and USA (Discovery, A and E and the Biography Channel). Most recently he has been at Steadfast Productions (Last Chance Driving School for ITV1).

Based at Twofour's Plymouth offices Andy will report to Twofour's Director of Programmes Joe Houlihan.

Joe Houlihan said: "We're delighted that someone with such a fantastic track record is joining Twofour. Andy's experience extends across a wide range of popular factual programming and it will be a great benefit to have him on the team."
