The Clinic Format Makes Its Way to Greece

Eccho Rights has licensed the Belgian format The Clinic to Antenna TV in Greece.

Seen through the eyes of four doctors and one nurse, The Clinic provides stories based on real medical cases, showing the intense moments of daily life at a hospital. The Greek version of the show is set to go into production this spring, with an initial order of 60 episodes to air later this year on ANT1 in Greece.

Created by Tuvalu for VRT in Belgium, The Clinic was a record-breaking ratings-winner for the Belgian pubcaster. The remake in Spain, Centro Médico, was produced by Zebra Producciones and ran for more than 1,100 episodes on RTVE.

Fredrik af Malmborg, managing director at Eccho Rights, said: “The Clinic is a wonderfully simple but successful format—each episode is based on real medical cases, as seen through the eyes of a cast of doctors and nurses. Though the episodes are scripted, the deeply researched source material and original cases make for highly realistic and relatable storytelling.”
