All 4 commission I Was Born On One Born

Since its launch, over 250 babies have been delivered on BAFTA-award winning series One Born Every Minute.

In a series of new shorts for All 4, six of those children – now at primary school – will have the rare opportunity to witness how they came into the world as they watch their censored One Born footage with their proud and sometimes emotional family.

Fascinating, funny and heart-warming, I Was Born On One Born features familiar One Born faces and their offspring. They will gain an understanding of what their parents went through to get them there and behold their first moments into the world.

I Was Born On One Born will launch on All 4 this April shortly after the launch of the new series of the genre-defining Channel 4 series, One Born Every Minute.

The hugely popular Channel 4 series returns to Liverpool Women’s Hospital this April to highlight the extraordinary highs and lows of the day-to-day life in a world where every minute of every hour a baby is born. And as is discovered, no birth story is ever the same.

A whole new raft of expectant mothers check in to the labour ward including Health Care Assistant at the hospital Olwen, who has a very special delivery as she supports her grand-daughter whilst on the ward. Midwife Sarah also keeps it in the family when she gives birth to twins naturally with her mum, who is also a midwife at the hospital, by her side.

Richard Bond, Creative Director at Dragonfly said “The new All 4 series is a fantastic twist on a much loved format and is indicative of the innovation at the heart of the show. It will be filled with the same warmth and life-affirming moments for which this ever popular series is known and which are in abundance in the next Channel 4 series.”

One Born Every Minute is consistently one of the most popular factual titles for the young (16-34) Channel 4 audience and since its launch in 2010 it has reached an incredible 40 million viewers (70% of the viewing population).

One Born Every Minute and I Was Born on One Born are produced by Dragonfly, part of Endemol Shine Group. The executive producer is Simon Kerfoot. Lizzie Keen, Editor at All 4 commissioned I Was Born On One Born. The commissioners for One Born Every Minute is Rita Daniels and Emily Jones.
