EXCLUSIVE: Industry veteran Danny Tipping has launched unscripted producer Longwave Studios.
The UK-based company kicks off with a commission for Crime+Investigation titled The Bodies on the Bridge, a two-part doc series about the tragic and bizarre story of the 2024 murders, in West London, of Albert Alfonso and Paul Letchworth by Yostin Mosquera and the killer’s thwarted attempts to dispose of his victim’s bodies on the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol.
Longwave is co-producing with Krempelwood and sold internationally by Blue Ant Rights. The doc is currently in production.

Headquartered in London, Longwave will focus on factual content for the global TV market across all unscripted genres – from investigative series, factual entertainment formats through to human interest stories. It will employ a team of producers and creatives.
“We’re thrilled to be working with the great team at Longwave Studios on their inaugural production – a traumatic yet important story about the sinister workings of the dark web and sex tourism, and the excellent work of two police forces in bringing the perpetrator to justice,” said Korn.
