Naked (formerly known as Boundless from 2012 until 2020) is a British television production company that was established on 1 January 2012 and was run by managing director Fatima Salaria.[3]

History[edit]

On 1 January 2012, Fremantle split Talkback Thames into four separate production companies, concentrating on specific genres which were Boundless for factual programming, Retort (later renamed Hare and Tortoise[4]) for scripted comedy, Talkback for comedy, and Thames for mainstream entertainment.[5][6] In 2018, the Boundless brand was updated, replacing its purple look for red. In 2020, Fremantle merged Boundless with Naked Entertainment, with the name of the new production label being "Naked".[7][8][9]
