<p><em>“She has grown our core business as well as driving significant innovation, including the successful creation of BritBox, the growth of BBC America alongside our partner AMCN, the launch of new channels like BBC Earth in Canada, and major new content and production deals.</em></p>
<p><em>“We will miss her generosity and her spirit of collaboration, and we wish her great success at Warner Bros.”</em></p>
