Remarkable Entertainment (formerly known as Remarkable Television) is an unscripted/factual subsidiary of Banijay UK Productions (formerly known as Endemol Shine UK), itself part of Banijay, and formerly part of Endemol. It was formed in 2009 as a merger between existing Endemol subsidiaries Cheetah Television and Brighter Pictures.
