CANNES: Scripted dramas and comedies are among the many key highlights for Shine International at MIPTV, according to Nadine Nohr, the company’s CEO.

The ITV series Broadchurch co-stars David Tennant (Doctor Who) and comes from the screenwriter of Law & Order: UK and the producers of Spooks. It is a major focus for Shine International’s sales remit, as is the drama In the Flesh, which comes from the director of Doctor Who. The comedy Vicious, meanwhile, stars the renowned actors Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi.

“Shine International’s programming captures the hearts and imaginations of millions of viewers, everyday, in over 200 territories,” says Nohr. “At MIPTV we will be launching our largest catalogue of new and returning commissions to date—network commissions and high-profile productions from an array of TV’s most-trusted and exciting program-makers.”
