Ambulance Australia Season Three

The Sunshine State Breeds Heroes.

Ambulance Australia Commences Production In Queensland.

Season three of Network 10’s powerful Australian documentary series Ambulance Australia, has commenced production in Queensland, showcasing the critical work our paramedics are faced with on a daily basis.

With honesty and transparency, the gripping fly-on-the-wall series will take an extraordinary look at the Queensland Ambulance frontline.

Taking viewers on a journey from the high pressure Ambulance Triple Zero Operations Centre, to the heart and soul of the paramedics on the road who are forced to make split second decisions that can mean the difference between life and death.

With a staggering 1,235,793 responses to incidents*, the most of any state, Queensland is the perfect location to capture the raw reality of life as a paramedic.

Endemol Shine CEO, Mark Fennessy said: “Ambulance Australia is a truly unique series of which we’re enormously proud. Season 3 promises to be the most compelling yet as filming moves to the Sunshine State for the very first time. We look forward to showcasing the brilliant work of the Queensland Ambulance service.”

Queensland Ambulance Service Commissioner Russell Bowles said: “It’s rare for the public to get a behind the scenes glimpse of our operations so this is an exciting way to highlight the care, compassion and professionalism shown by our staff. We hope that by showcasing the rewarding, and at times difficult work our paramedics and Emergency Medical Dispatchers do every day, the public will get a greater understanding of what to do in an emergency and when is an appropriate time to call Triple Zero (000).”

Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Steven Miles said: “We’re extremely proud of the way our Ambos in teal deal with patients in what is often the most vulnerable and confronting point in their life and this series will show the light and shade of what it is to be a Queensland Ambulance officer.”

Ambulance Australia is produced by Endemol Shine Australia for Network 10. It will air on 10 and WIN Network in 2020.

Australian Survivor’s The Jury Villa returns to 10 Play

The Jury Villa, 10 Play’s exclusive Australian Survivor companion show produced by Endemol Shine Australia, has returned this season. The digital-only show follows the journey of the final Survivor tribemates after they get eliminated and are reintroduced back into civilisation, sequestered as jury members.

Australian Survivor’s executive producer Cathie Scott said: “This season of Australian Survivor has taken the format to a whole new level! We’re witnessing more intense and strategic gameplay, exceptional production values and heightened audience engagement. With records being broken across all 10 platforms, fans are loving the show.

“The Jury Villa is a great way for us to extend the Survivor storyline beyond the initial broadcast and onto our digital platform, 10 Play. It was one of the highest rated digital companion shows on 10 Play last year – particularly with our under 50s audience. I’m sure it will continue to entice and excite the Survivor fans this season.

“Like Australian Survivor, this season of The Jury Villa is set to be a must-watch. We’ve really upped the ante on the production of the show and, based on the gameplay this season, audiences can expect some pretty interesting interactions at the Villa as the castaways are voted out of the main game!”
