Distraction Scores TF1 Deal

LONDON, March 8: The TVNZ reality format The Big
Experiment
, represented by Distraction, has

different conditions—for example, as someone who is overweight or as
someone of a different ethnic background. First produced by Rogue
Productions for TV One in New Zealand, The Big Experiment generated a market share of more than 24 percent.
The format has also been sold to Belgium.
