About Red Sauce
Red Sauce combines the best of working for an exciting and dynamic new fledgling label with the reassuring backup and facilities of a major production group. Founded in late 2020, we have since won over 250 hours of content commissions for various broadcasters and brands. Our shows range from the long-running, high volume Five docusoap Bargain Loving Brits in the Sun through Dave's newly re-commissioned true crime hit Special Ops to a soon-to-be-announced talent-driven comedy entertainment format, feature-length specials and our first brand-funded series.

Led by award-winning programme maker and former BBC commissioner, Tom Edwards, we create a broad range of fact ent and popular factual content from bases in London and Manchester.

2022 was the first year we have taken part in the Channel 4 Production Training Scheme and it was a big success for both Red Sauce and our trainee - who took an active role in the development team (pitching their own ideas directly to commissioners) as well as gaining experience as a researcher working on location with big name talent on a high profile production.
