GPM close to deal on site as
UK struggles to keep up with demand for production space
A media investment firm that has bankrolled shows including Line of Duty has raised $180m (£136.6m) to build a Hollywood-style studio and fund new films and TV series, as the UK struggles to keep up with the demand for production space.
London-based Great Point Media (GPM), which recently partnered with the Hunger Games-maker Lionsgate to build a $100m studio complex in Yonkers,
New York, is close to a deal on a site to build at least one large-scale studio in the UK.
