Wise Owl’s sixth When...Came To Britain for BBC Music/@BBCTwo. As The Observer says of Dhivya Kate Chetty’s film, it’s “wonderfully joyous”. This is what we did for them, and what they did for us  - fifty years to the day since @ABBA’s Eurovision triumph in Brighton.

[Wise Owl Films @wiseowlfilms]

50 years on from their @Eurovision triumph, When ABBA Came To Britain is Wise Owl’s latest show for @BBCTwo with untold stories & previously unheard interviews with the band.

How it started...how it’s going...5 years ago on Bonfire Night 2018 we launched Wise Owl Films in Leeds.
It's been incredible, challenging & rewarding.
To everyone who worked with us, filmed with us, commissioned from us & BELIEVED in us...thank you! There's plenty more to come.
