Dear Betty,
I'm pleased to hear that there will be a television program dedicated to sharing the lives of the hard-working people of the North with the world. However, I sincerely hope that the show will also recognize the many contributions made by WOMEN who work in the North [1]. If the producers need any help finding some of them, please contact the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists at http://apecs.is. The membership directory [2] contains hundreds of people, women and men, who would make excellent subjects for your show.
cheers,
