Scott and Deirdre Gurney have been placed on a leave of absence from Gurney Productions.
Craig Armstrong of ITV will step in as the interim CEO to Gurney Productions.
ITV has had a controlling interest in Gurney since back in 2012, so Armstrong’s selection to fill in for the Gurneys doesn’t come as a huge surprise.
Given that Armstrong is an Emmy-winning producer who has contributed to series like Survivor, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and Food Revolution over the years, the folks at Gurney have a qualified person helming the company for the time being.
