SBS TV series 2007 November - Australia
A high-rating prime-time 7×26min factual entertainment science series for SBS in 2007, as a co-production with Essential Viewing, sold to UKTV, Sundance Channel USA and TVNZ.
Is Your House Killing You? is a groundbreaking, on the pulse, scientific makeover series. Ordinary families are invited to take up the challenge to ‘detox’ their homes. From inner city apartments to country fibros, our expert team swarms, probes and strips back a diverse range of homes in a CSI-style investigation. Some homes sparkle innocently and others are environmental monsters, but they all harbour a parallel microscopic world of hidden dangers.
In 2007 IYHKY was one of SBS’s highest rating shows in its time slot, sold to Sundance Channel USA, UKTV, TVNZ and in several other territories globally.
Director Jennifer Lyons-Reid and producer Carl Kuddell from Tallstoreez Productionz created the concept and formed a co-production with Essential Viewing in Sydney, to produce the first-ever South Australian factual format series series with the financial support from the SAFC.
