Who we are

Eddie Morgan and Terry Wilson set up Northern Town in 2014 to specialise in factual TV especially music, arts and culture of all kinds.

We’re a diverse team with backgrounds in the indie sector, BBC and ITV.

We’re a real indie, not owned in any way by a bigger group or private money.

We make TV programmes for channels in the UK and globally.

Our most recent work includes Final Say a ‘moving, candid and striking’ portrait (The Observer) broadcast on Sky Arts in 2019,  a drama doc The Last Testament of Lillian Bilocca for BBC4 and You Asked, Art Answered for BBC and Google broadcast in 2019 and 2020.

Our biggest commission is a 75 episode series Brilliant Ideas for Bloomberg TV.

We also make digital content for clients, including 100 museums and galleries around the UK.

We’re always developing new ideas – from one-off films and live events to formats and factual entertainment.

We love working with other indies, organisations and anyone with a great idea.

So if that’s you, get in touch.
