Produced by Studio Lambert in association with All3Media International for the BBC, the show will bow on Tubi in the first quarter of 2024.<\/p>\n<p><em>Boarders<\/em> was created and written by Daniel Lawrence Taylor, with Emma Dennis-Edwards, Yemi Oyefuwa and Ryan Calais Cameron contributing. The series is led by Josh Tedeku (<em>Supacell<\/em>, <em>A Town Called Malice<\/em>), Jodie Campbell (<em>Bulletproof<\/em>, <em>No Return<\/em>) and Myles Kamwendo (<em>The School for Good and Evil<\/em>), alongside Sekou Diaby and Aruna Jalloh, both making their screen debuts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited to be bringing <em>Boarders<\/em> to audiences in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and across LatAm as we continue to offer a variety of global programming at Tubi,\u201d said Sam Harowitz, VP of content acquisitions and partnerships at Tubi. \u201cAt Tubi, we\u2019re dedicated to telling compelling stories from all over the world and we know our highly engaged viewers will love the world and characters that Daniel has created just as much as we do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m beyond excited that Tubi is bringing <em>Boarders<\/em> to North America,\u201d said Lawrence Taylor. \u201cThis is a quintessentially British coming-of-age school show with big universal themes of belonging, achievement, first crushes, forging friendships and awkward sexual encounters that will hit home as hard for the North American audiences as much as it does for us Brits. It is jam-packed with exciting new talent, both in front of and behind the camera, and is filled with humor, pathos and straight-up joy. I know the Tubi audience will love watching it as much as I loved creating it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTubi is the ideal partner for this fantastic original comedy drama, and this agreement will ensure <em>Boarders<\/em> reaches a huge corner of the global market,\u201d commented Sally Habbershaw, executive VP for the Americas at All3Media International. \u201c<em>Boarders <\/em>showcases a wealth of brilliant new talent and brings to life a contemporary comedy of manners with a lot of heart.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The British coming-of-age dramedy Boarders is set for an exclusive North American debut on Tubi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3087,"featured_media":20065,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[314,237,8437,1083,5187],"class_list":["post-20064","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-all3media-international","tag-bbc","tag-boarders","tag-studio-lambert","tag-tubi","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Tubi Picks Up BBC&#039;s Boarders - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Tubi Picks Up BBC&#039;s Boarders - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The British coming-of-age dramedy Boarders is set for an exclusive North American debut on Tubi.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-01-26T15:27:18+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2024-01-26T15:31:26+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/07\/Tubi-Boarders-0124.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"394\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/\",\"name\":\"Tubi Picks Up BBC's Boarders - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2024-01-26T15:27:18+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-01-26T15:31:26+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/tubi-to-launch-bbcs-boarders\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Tubi Picks Up BBC&#8217;s Boarders\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\",\"name\":\"Alexa Alfano\",\"description\":\"Alexa Alfano is associate editor at World Screen.
