Cheetah Television

Background
Cheetah Television (known as Endemol UK Productions until 2006 and Bazal Productions until 2002) was a general entertainment/factual subsidiary of Endemol that was originally created in 1987 as an independent production company by former BBC executive Peter Bazalgette following his success of Food and Drink, which was acquired by Guardian Media Group in 1990, and a majority interest was sold to Endemol in 1998, which Endemol bought GMG's shares in 2000 and rebranded it in 2001 under the Endemol name following a corporate makeover. The company was based within London, alongside a separate production division in the Midlands (Endemol UK Productions Midlands, formerly Bazal Midlands). This was joined in 2004 with a third production division in Bristol called Cheetah Television West (formerly Endemol West). The main and West divisions would be rebranded as Cheetah Television in 2006.

On September 16, 2009, Endemol UK announced that Cheetah would be merged with fellow subsidiary Brighter Pictures to form a new production company, titled Remarkable Television.
