The Company

Peanut & Crumb is an award-winning strategic communications and TV production company founded by BBC broadcaster Katy Derham and BAFTA-nominated producer Jane Gerber. We’re a collective of top tier creatives and media experts who will tell your story, engage audiences and get results.

We work with leading brands like Tesco, WWF, Total, The National Lottery, PwC, Sotherby’s, Leon Restaurants and Glyndebourne Opera House, and agencies like Havas and Grey.

From beautifully-crafted film content and broadcast TV projects to branded podcasts, media strategy and media coaching, our team of award-winning journalists, directors, producers, media strategists and storytellers regularly moves heaven and earth to help our clients realise their business objectives.

Although we are based in Brighton, our founders are ex-London executives from both a broadcast and commercial background. And with our personal approach, experience and connections we aim to create a unique narrative that cuts through the noise and become a trusted partner.
