MADRID\/LONDON: Walter Presents has secured exclusive rights to the thriller Locked Up<\/em> (Vis a Vis<\/em>) from Imagina International Sales in its first Spanish acquisition.<\/p>\n The non-English-language drama service run by Global Series Network (GSN) and Channel 4 will bring the series, which is set in a Spanish women\u2019s prison, to U.K. audiences. Produced by Globomedia for Antena 3, Locked Up<\/em> follows Macarena Ferreiro, who is framed by her lover for corporate fraud and sent to a high-security women\u2019s prison that houses ruthless criminals. When her only friend in the prison is brutally murdered, Macarena is implicated in a multimillion-dollar hold-up that could change her life.<\/p>\n Locked Up<\/em> originally aired on Antena 3 in Spain. It drew 4.3 million viewers and a 22.4 percent share. The second season of the show was released last week. Locked Up<\/em> will be one of the first Spanish fiction titles to air in the U.K.<\/p>\n Jason Thorp, the CEO of GSN, commented, \u201cWe are delighted to have made Locked Up<\/em> our first Spanish acquisition. The quality of drama production is rapidly on the up in Southern Europe and Locked Up<\/em> is a great example of that. We believe we\u2019ve picked up an exceptional piece of television that British viewers will love.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MADRID\/LONDON: Walter Presents has secured exclusive rights to the thriller Locked Up (Vis a Vis) from Imagina International Sales in its first Spanish acquisition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":5911,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[712,233,713,714,715,716,717],"class_list":["post-5910","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-antena-3","tag-channel-4","tag-global-series-network","tag-globomedia","tag-imagina-international-sales","tag-locked-up-vis-a-vis","tag-walter-presents","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
