ITVS label Rollercoaster appoints Remarkable exec as head of production

Sarah Boyce

Rollercoaster Television, the ITV Studios label led by James Fox and Dom Waugh, has appointed Sarah Boyce as head of production.

Boyce joins Rollercoaster from Endemol Shine UK-owned Remarkable, where she was head of production for entertainment, overseeing returning shows such as Pointless, Richard Osman’s House Of Games and The Wall for the BBC, as well as most recently Starstruck for ITV.

Other credits at Remarkable include the BBC One show All Together Now and Your Home Made Perfect for BBC Two.

Prior to that, Boyce was a freelance production manager for ten years, during which time she managed high-volume quiz shows, and worked on live television productions such as The Lottery Draw Shows and reality series like Big Brother and Fame Academy.

Remarkable execs Fox and Waugh launched Rollercoaster Television last year, with a focus on creating and producing new formats for the UK and global markets.

Fox and Waugh commented: “We’re absolutely thrilled Sarah is joining us. She has one of the best production brains in the business, equally adept at realising complex, big-scale first series as managing returning brands. And with our first slate of shows now gearing up, it feels like the perfect time to bring Sarah on board.”

“It is a real privilege to be joining James and Dom at the very start of the Rollercoaster ride,” added Boyce. “They are a dynamic force and I can’t wait for the thrills and spills of the journey.”
