It's hoped a new docuseries about the Isle of Man TT will help boost the profile of the racing fortnight.
Earlier this week, it was revealed Hollywood actors Brad Pitt and Channing Tatum are set to feature in a new film dubbed 'The Greatest Race on Earth'.
Production has already begun and the major feature film will follow the docuseries which is expected to be taken to the market later this year.
Enterprise Minister Tim Johnston and Chief Officer Mark Lewin hailed the announcement 'really exciting news':
