Damien Lewis: Spy Wars producer Alaska TV is sniffing out a U.S. sale of its latest format – a docu-series that takes four cocaine users on a dangerous journey to Colombia to learn about the effect…

Alaska’s Brighton-based division is producing the series, which distributor Drive will sell internationally outside of the UK and U.S. The series was commissioned by Emma Westcott for Channel 5 and it is exec produced by Alaska co-founder Chris Fouracre and Creative Director Ian Lamarra.

The formatted documentary takes four recreational cocaine users on a journey to discover the true cost of their party lifestyles. They go on an immersive, potentially dangerous, life changing journey, that follows the cocaine trail from the Colombian rainforests to the streets of Britain.

Fouracre said, “I’m immensely proud of the Brighton team who made this challenging and potentially dangerous format come to life. The series is emotionally engaging, occasionally jaw-dropping but ultimately redemptive, as the four contributors come to terms with the business of cocaine and the human suffering it engenders.

Lamarra added, “This series is explosive. I’ve never seen anything like it on British TV and can’t wait to roll the format out internationally.”
