MIPTV Spotlight: FremantleMedia

CANNES: The prime-time family game show Bang on the Money is launching on ITV in the U.K. this spring, and FremantleMedia is making the format available to buyers at MIPTV.

The format looks on as two teams of young people face a series of studio challenges for the chance to win a cash prize.

Another highlight is Football Nightmares, a sports-themed format developed with football legend Gianluca Vialli. “Football Nightmares combines drama, excitement and love for the beautiful game as two ex-professional players embark on a mission to restore the confidence of failing amateur football teams,” says Rob Clark, FremantleMedia’s director of global entertainment.

The company is also presenting My First Holiday, a format that sees real people experience a foreign vacation for the very first time.

“This MIPTV we have gone back to the basics of great storytelling, authentic characters and feel-good, fresh television,” Clark says.
