Corymore Productions is an American television production company that was created and founded in 1987 by producer Peter Shaw and his wife and actress Angela Lansbury.[1][2] The name came from Corrymore House, by Keem Bay on Achill Island in Ireland, where Lansbury had spent childhood summer holidays, and whose correct spelling with doubled R she discovered later.[3]

The couple launched Corymore Productions at Universal Studios with their two sons, David and Anthony, where for twelve years they co-produced the long-running hit television series Murder, She Wrote, as well as several television movies featuring Lansbury.[4] The company, which produced Murder, She Wrote: The Celtic Riddle, hasn't produced anything since 2003.[citation needed]
