MIPCOM Spotlight: BBC Studios

In the BBC Studios dating format Hot Property, one hopeful singleton has to choose a potential partner without having met them.

In round one, it’s based only on a single possession owned by each suitor, then by walking around the houses of the remaining contestants and finally, by meeting the person closest to them. “Hot Property is a dating show with a twist where you choose a potential partner without having met them,” says Andre Renaud, senior VP of global format sales at BBC Studios.

The company’s format catalog also features the entertainment show Late Night Guestlist and the reality series One Hot Summer: Heartbreak Holiday.

“Content for youth-skewing platforms continues to grow, and our launches Hot Property and One Hot Summer: Heartbreak Holiday are both aimed at 16- to 24-year-olds on BBC Three,” says Renaud. “Equally, a strong, fun, family-friendly format like Late Night Guestlist has the opportunity to delight a broad audience.”
