New Red Arrow formats Kiss Bang Love and The Day the Cash Came prove global hits - Seven Network Australia commissions new productions
- Kiss Bang Love sold to over eight territories worldwide
Munich, 21 October, 2015. Red Arrow International has announced that new MIPCOM 2015 formats Kiss Bang Love and The Day the Cash Came have been secured by Seven Network Australia and a wealth of other territories.
Following its high-profile launch at MIPCOM 2015, Red Arrow International has licensed Kiss Bang Love to eight territories in total including Seven Network in Australia, plus Italy, France, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Finland. The Day the Cash Came has been licensed to four territories worldwide including Endemol Shine Australia for Seven Network, and to Belgium and the Netherlands.
Kiss Bang Love is the provocative new dating experiment from the creators of Married at First Sight and is currently in production by RedSeven Entertainment for ProSieben Germany. The Day the Cash Came is a bold new real-world social experiment produced by CPL Productions for BBC One.
Brad Lyons, Director of Production Seven Network, said: Both Kiss Bang Love and The Day the Cash Came are noisy social experiments and we are excited to bring them to Australian audiences. In what was a very buoyant MIPCOM these were the stand out formats and we are excited to be working again with our friends at Red Arrow and Endemol Shine.
Henrik Pabst, Managing Director of Red Arrow International said: We have had an exceptional year for formats, with the breadth and quality of our shows proving a massive draw to broadcasters and producers. We are delighted that Seven has picked up these two new formats - from the moment we announced Kiss Bang Love and The Day the Cash Came the level of interest has been unprecedented, and I am delighted that they are now travelling the world.
About Kiss Bang Love
Kiss Bang Love is the provocative and radical new dating experiment created by Snowman Productions Denmark and produced by RedSeven Entertainment for ProSieben Germany. Research shows that kissing is a powerful tool in our search for the right partner, and the average single person kisses 15 people and has at least 2 one-night stands before falling in love. Kiss Bang Love puts this to the test as a group of single people in search of love agrees to take part in this radical new TV experiment.
About The Day the Cash Came
The Day the Cash Came is a real-world social experiment for the BBC produced by CPL Productions that tests the idea that people on low incomes should be trusted to make their own decisions about how theyre helped financially. In the show families living below the poverty line are gifted a years salary in one lump sum of cash by an anonymous benefactor - no strings attached. They can spend it in whatever way they choose: will they decide to blow it all on a spending spree, or spend the money wisely and invest in their long-term future?
Further territory details will be announced shortly.
