C4 hits the road with families

Channel 4 in the UK has commissioned Endemol Shine Group-owned Princess Productions to produce a show exploring parenting in the family car.

Taxi of Mum & Dad (1×60′) will use a fixed car rig to film interactions between parents and teenagers as they bond, gossip and give advice during journeys.

Channel 4 Education commissioning editor Emily Jones ordered the show, while Anna Blue and Will Spokes will be the executive producers at Princess Productions.

“Taxi of Mum & Dad is a simple premise that captures those precious moments between teens and their parents when they’re not sure you’re looking,” said Jones.
