Jimmy Mulville, Hat Trick Managing Director, said:

“Belfast is a fantastically creative hub of all the talents necessary to make great television and I’m thrilled to be expanding Hat Trick Productions there under the energetic and inspirational leadership of Louse Gallagher. She is a force of nature and will provide a welcoming home for the creative community in Northern Ireland. We can’t wait to get cracking.”

On her appointment, Louise Gallagher added:

“I am honoured to be given this opportunity, and it tops off what has been a wonderful year for me. I've long been a fan of Hat Trick's productions and am looking forward to contributing to their amazing portfolio with exciting projects from the wealth of talent I know we have here in Northern Ireland.”

“It has been a great pleasure for Northern Ireland Screen to work with Hat Trick, one of the UK’s most respected and prolific production companies, since 2007.  Most recently we’ve worked with them on Mastermind and the truly wonderful Derry Girls.  We’re delighted that Hat Trick is now setting up a permanent base in Northern Ireland and there’s no better person to run it than Louise Gallagher who is just off the back of producing the hugely successful A Bump Along the Way.
