About us

Only too often, television programmes divide into those that are good for you – and those that are entertaining to watch. Frustrated by this choice between austerity and frivolity, Seneca Productions sets out to make programmes that are at once great fun and profound and ambitious in their subject matter.

Our BAFTA-winning team have developed and produced major series and high profile one-off documentaries for broadcasters in the UK and US, including the BBC, Channel 4, ITV, History Channel, Discovery Networks and National Geographic.

We are committed to making documentaries, and arts, science and history programmes that never forget the duty to keep viewers moved, entertained and amused.
