Charles Tremayne

Charles Tremayne is a British television executive and producer. He won an Emmy Award as Executive Producer of American Pickers.[1] In April 2020, Tremayne transitioned from his role as President of Cineflix Productions to the new role of Chair of the Cineflix Content Group, a working alliance of its producers and creatives.[2]

Earlier he was Controller of Factual Programmes for Granada Television and Executive Producer for current affairs programme World in Action.[3]

He was portrayed by Roger Allam in the docudrama Who Bombed Birmingham? (also presented as The Investigation: Inside a Terrorist Bombing).[4] He commissioned Keith Floyd to present a World in Action programme on convenience food and, in December 1993,[5] clashed with Alan Sugar over "Tottenham's tax problem", an exposé of interest-free loans in breach of League rules.[6]

When Tonight with Trevor McDonald replaced World in Action, Tremayne helped the new show obtain interviews with the original five Stephen Lawrence murder suspects.[7]

After 1999 Tremayne began working on American TV.
