Filmed over six months, the documentary captures the work, expertise and exquisite
craftsmanship that goes into making Boodles' fine jewellery. The programme follows the
creation of the Boodles Emerald 'Greenfire' necklace, from loose stones, to design,
creation and launch; shadowing the four Directors, Nicholas, Michael, Jody and James each
step of the way.



A British family business, founded over 200 years ago, Boodles aims to create
beautiful, unique and contemporary jewellery designs with an awareness of fashion and a
sense of adventure and fun.



Jody Wainwright (Boodles Director and Head of Stone Sourcing), who features in the
programme, commented:



'We are delighted to be sharing our story through this documentary and hope that it
will provide an interesting insight into the, sometimes mysterious, world of fine
jewellery. Our 'Greenfire' suite, created using the finest emeralds from the Columbian
Muzo mines, is one of the most ambitious and valuable collections that we have embarked
upon, so we were thrilled that Channel 4 were there to capture our journey.'



Overall, the film captures the Boodles directors and staff as they strive for
perfection in everything they do... with a few glamorous parties and some celebrity
friends thrown in...



Inside Boodles: The Million Pound Necklace will air on Channel 4 on Sunday 23rd March
at 20:00 and on 4Seven on 24th, 25th and 27th March. It will be available on Channel 4's
