Beyond Heads to MIP with The Hunks

SYDNEY: Beyond Distribution is headed to MIPTV with its recently acquired The Hunks, a six-part series from Back2Back Productions.

The reality series features ten physically fit men who spend the summer together attempting to outdo one another while surfing, working out and wooing women, as well as providing insight into how men’s minds work. The real-life men behind the series will also be on display at the market, attending several functions with Beyond.

Fiona Crago, the general manager of Beyond Distribution, said: “We are very excited about working with Back2Back Productions and adding to our roster of top-quality British producers. The high quality of programming from the U.K. is renowned and embraced by broadcasters worldwide. It is a great opportunity to introduce our buyers to some of the Hunks at MIP. We expect The Hunks will turn heads at the market as the boys may not be dressed entirely weather appropriately!”

David Notman-Watt, the managing director and executive producer at Back2Back Production, commented: "The Hunks are ten gorgeous young men who over a very British summer will lift the lid on what young men today actually think about women. Prepare to be shocked, surprised, and most of all, to laugh. This much flesh has not been seen on our screens since Baywatch!"
