Zone Reality Will Premiere its First Original Series

LONDON, September 19:
Zonemedia’s Zone Reality channel will be launching its first original series Psychic
Private Eyes.

Psychic Private Eyes will consist of 15 one-hour episodes and is a
co-production between Zonemedia and the British company IPM. The series is
scheduled to premiere in December on Zone Reality’s U.K. feed and then roll out
on Zone Reality in other territories in the first quarter of 2007. Zonemedia
Distribution will sell the series internationally.

The series features
real-life psychic investigations into actual murders and disappearances, using
three of Britain’s best-known psychic mediums—Colin Fry, Tony Stockwell
and T.J. Higgs. They’ll take on closed cases and attempt to contact the dead
victims, helping families to find the answers to the unsolved mysteries that
surrounded the untimely deaths of their loved ones.

“This show is a perfect
fit for the Zone Reality channel which aims to provide a unique angle on real
life situations,” says Steve Cole, the senior VP of channels at Zonemedia. “We
are delighted to be working with IPM on our first original series for the
channel as they have a fantastic background in this field, producing
internationally successful programs and creating household names. Zonemedia
Distribution is also confident that Psychic Private Eyes will prove a similar hit with viewers and
international buyers”.

“There‘s a
huge fascination for this subject which just keeps on growing,” adds Hilary
Goldman of IPM. “Like us, the team at Zonemedia recognizes the entertainment
value and sheer fascination viewers have for this emotive subject.”
