Ocean Wonders<\/em>, from otf studios and EarthxTV, sees marine biologist Tom \u201cThe Blowfish\u201d Hird reveal the science behind some of the most intriguing mysteries of the underwater world. Scenery\u2019s Human Playground<\/em>, meanwhile, follows as Idris Elba sets off on a journey around the world to discover why humans love to play, whether on sand, sea, snow or tarmac.<\/p>\n \u201cThe conventional wisdom is that premium factual is difficult to sell into the Spanish-speaking markets where sport and light entertainment are the focus,\u201d said Emilia Gil Villegas. \u201cIt is clear that the right documentaries about the right subjects, whether pharaohs, female spies or fascist dictators, cut across all cultures and demographics. That message was reconfirmed at MIPCOM, where our slate of new launches not only generated a real but but, as these deals demonstrate, real business.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Off the Fence has closed a slew of deals with broadcasters in Iberia for titles across its factual catalog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":22294,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[4840,9497,760,10261],"class_list":["post-22293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-amc-networks-international-southern-europe","tag-emilia-gil-villegas","tag-off-the-fence","tag-tv3-3cat-catalunya","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
