First Round of Deals for Undercover Boss

LONDON: ALL3MEDIA International has secured the first deals for its debut Studio Lambert title Undercover Boss, which is currently in production for Channel 4 in the U.K. 

The format has already been optioned by Endemol in France, Nordisk in Finland and Gil Productions in Israel, with further options signed in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Spain and Belgium.

Australia’s Network Ten acquired both the format and the completed show, while YLE Finland and SKY in New Zealand went for the finished show.

Undercover Boss follows as a company’s leader goes incognito within their own business, rooting out problems and rewarding hidden talent among their employees.

Stephanie Hartog, the executive VP of formats at ALL3MEDIA International, commented, "Undercover Boss is a fantastically positive, warm new show from Studio Lambert, and we were delighted at the reaction from buyers at the market. We look forward to the shows completion and signing many more deals."
