LONDON: Cineflix Rights has inked a host of sales deals for more than 120 hours of third-party content, including several titles from LMNO Productions.

In Australia, Foxtel went for Hollywood & Crime, Cheating Vegas and the fourth season of Unusual Suspects, all of which come from LMNO Productions. Foxtel also picked up Instruments of Death (Like a Shot Entertainment/Definition Media) and season two of Wives with Knives (Indigo Films).

The first five seasons of Special Delivery, from LMNO Productions, are headed to the UKTV channel Really, along with Triage Entertainment’s The Real Skinny and LMNO Productions’ 101 Things Removed from the Human Body and Amazing Medical Stories.

Italy’s Mediaset also opted for 101 Things Removed from the Human Body and Amazing Medical Stories, as well as Bigger Better Faster Stronger (The Downlow Concept), Head Games (Sharp Entertainment) and I, Human (Touch Productions). These titles are set to debut on Mediaset’s Italia 1 as part of the science block Archimed.

Chris Bonney, the CEO of Rights for Cineflix Media, commented: "Cineflix Rights’ third-party slate has grown steadily over the past few years and now represents around 50 percent of our catalogue. Our success comes down to our ability to combine scale with a tailored approach to selling which means we maximize returns for our producer partners. Our teams will be…looking to acquire and sell more third-party content as we continue to expand this side of our business."
