Medialaan goes travelling with Talpa

Around the World with 80-Year-Olds originally aired on SBS6

A broadcaster in Belgium has commissioned a local version of a Talpa format in which travel-shy senior citizens explore the world.

Medialaan has ordered Around the World with 80-Year-Olds, which will follow eight Flemish seniors who have never left their home country before travel the globe, for its network VTM.

The Dutch format originally aired in the Netherlands on SBS6 before Talpa secured a deal with Chinese prodco 3C Media to remake the show in China.

A second season is due to air on SBS6 in spring 2018, while a German version is set to make its debut in the summer on ZDF.
