New Lifestyle Television Show to be Filmed in British Columbia's Okanagan Valley

Fit For A King: The Renaissance of Real Food. A holistic nutritionist and a rock 'n' roller join forces to prepare meals "Fit For A King" using only a vintage Vespa, real food, and a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon. Together, they'll change the country in just 13 episodes.

The producers at Death or Glory Productions, currently in post-production of their first feature film PUNKSVILLE, are hard at work on a new television series, called "Fit For A King". The new show is also to be filmed entirely in the Okanagan Valley (in the heart of Western Canada’s wine country), in British Columbia. The first season will consist of 13 half-hour episodes, with plans for 5 seasons or more.

In each episode, hosts James Blonde (the rock 'n' roller), and Lisa Kilgour, RHN, leave their “home” at picturesque God’s Mountain Estate, in search of an outdoor adventure nearby, featuring and exploring the beautiful surroundings the Okanagan has to offer.

With the advice of local wine expert, and regular guest Gerrit Van Staalduinen, the hosts of "Fit For A King" will visit a featured winery in each episode, meeting with vintners to choose an exquisite, locally sourced wine.

“The show will visit organic, holistic and free-range farms and markets – all within the valley – in search of real, whole food, with which we will prepare delicious, nutritious meals,” adds Trance Blackman, the show’s co-producer, co-creator, and photographer.

"Fit For A King" will not only entertain you – with the most beautiful vistas, outdoor adventures, and interesting guests – but also educate, motivate, and inspire you to return to a simple, enriched, healthy lifestyle.

“We’ve set out to film and capture the wineries, outdoor activities, and the natural beauty of the Okanagan, in the most complimentary way. We’re presenting our back garden to the world. Additionally, our goal for the show is to be distributed to over 90 countries,” says Blonde, the show's creator, director and producer.

The producers are grateful to Jon Summerland, and the Okanagan Film Commission for their continued support, being instrumental in the process of putting together cast, crew, and locations for the "Fit For A King" production.
