Cynopsis: International 05/30/08 Good morning. It's Friday, May 30, 2008, and this is your first early morning International & Multicultural briefing. INTERNATIONAL MARKET: From Germany to Sweden is the next step for ProSieben's Beat your Host! following a sale by SevenOne International to Kanal 5. The Swedish channel will debut its Vem kan sla Filip och Fredrik (Who Can Beat Filip and Fredrik?) version in Fall 2008 with competing hosts. Yup, you guessed it. The hosts will be Filip and Fredrik, one of the country's comic teams already hosting Kanal 5's 100 hojdare (100 Highlights). This brings the number of countries for the show to 12 so far. EM.Sport Media is putting in a bid of the nearly 5% of Germany's Constantin Film it does not already own through the film company's Swiss parent Highlight Communications. It has been a busy week for EM.Sport with the sale just two days ago of its EM.Entertainment kids unit to Belgium's Studio 100 media corp for $64 million. The two companies inked a distribution agreement back in February with the latter's Studio 100 Media division. Italy's Mediaset is launching Disney Channel in the country on its Premium Gallery pay-TV platform on July 1, breaking the network's exclusive contract with Sky Italia. Open Mike Productions has received orders from the U.K.'s Channel 4 to produce a second run of the 6-episode Alan Carr's Celebrity Ding Dong. The 45-minute show is a rather tongue-in-cheek series where regular and famous folks are pitted against each other. In addition to the series, scheduled for a fall debut, Channel 4 also picked up the broadcast rights from Open Mike for Alan Carr - Tooth Fairy Live, Alan Carr's live stand-up show at Hammersmith Apollo. In other commission news, political comedy/drama series The Hollowmen (6x30-minutes) has been ordered by Australia's ABC TV from Working Dog. Production starts soon on the show, which will air as part of ABC1's Wednesday primetime with repeats on ABC2. The Hollowmen is about an internal think tank, set up by the Prime Minister. Southeast Asia's Hallmark Channel, Australia's Network Ten, Fiji TV, India's Zee Cafe, New Zealand's TV2 and Korea's Story On are the latest networks to sign on to acquire the Army Wives series from Disney-ABC International Television (Asia Pacific). LATAM MARKET: On Sundays this coming June, Latinoamerica Television will present a new series titled BBC Mundo Specials taking a look at topics and issues affecting Latin American indigenous communities. The specials will air with BBC Mundo programming highlights. EXECUTIVE MOVES: Global Networks' France unit has brought in Leonor Grandsire as MD for the NBC Universal international division. Based in Paris and reporting to Francois Roux, MD EMEA, Leonor will manage local pay-TV channel daily operations and growth in the country. Since December 2007, she has been SACEM's Head/Internet and Media. Miami-based Alfredo Duran has been named as SVP/Branded Services and GM of The Warner Channel Latin America, reporting to Malcolm Dudley-Smith, WBITD's EVP/Sales & Business Development, Canada, Latin America & Asia. He most recently served as EVP and GM for E! Entertainment Television Latin America for the past eight years. The new SVP/Home Entertainment for Australia for FremantleMedia Enterprises will be Daryl O'Connor. He will be in charge of growing the new label in Australia and New Zealand in addition to buying new content for local and international markets, new Digital Download developments and working with the Australian production office. Before joining the company, Daryl headed up Warner Music Australia's Warner Vision Australia unit. In other Global Networks exec news, the Asia Pacific division has pulled in Natalie Gee to be Creative Director. In this newly created position reporting to MD Raymund Miranda, she will work on the company's new channel launch strategy in the Asia Pacific region as well as handling on- and off-air creative for Sci Fi Channel, Universal Channel and the Hallmark Channel. Based out of Singapore, Natalie was previously the Launch Creative Consultant for AETN All Asia Networks. Gustavo Antonioni is joining the recently merged Granada Ventures and Granada International as Commercial Brand Director. In the newly created role, the former Marvel Entertainment and Warner Bros. executive will oversee international marketing and licensing strategy for ITV's brands including Coronation Street, Dancing on Ice and Hell's Kitchen.
