MIPCOM Spotlight: DRG

CANNES: This MIPCOM marks DRG’s first outing since the MTG Studios acquisition, “so it will be an important time for us to reinforce the fact that we are still an independent distributor,” says Jeremy Fox, the company’s CEO.

DRG is presenting buyers with UKTV’s The Roux Scholarship, which follows a unique culinary competition that has been running for 30 years. DRG also represents both the finished series and the format for Discovery Canada’s Know It All. “We believe the series’ combination of large-scale, explosive and exciting challenges and super-sized egos is the perfect recipe for international success,” says Fox. DRG is also excited about the second season of Top Boy, produced for the U.K.’s Channel 4. “This is a modern, dramatic and intriguing series, full of twists and turns, that is sure to keep audiences hooked,” says Fox.
