Broadcasters in Australasia, Europe and the Middle East have acquired BBC fly-on-the-wall documentary series Bangkok Airport from distributor Hat Trick International (HTI).

Australia’s Channel 9, Discovery Networks in Norway, TV2 in Demark and Shaw in Canada have all licensed the series, as has Nat Geo People for Asia, the Middle East and Africa.

Bangkok Airport (6×60’) debuted on BBC3 in the UK in January and takes viewers behind the scenes at the busy South-East Asian Airport.

It is produced by UK indie Keo Films, whose 1×60’ special The Mega Brothel has also been sold by HTI.

TLC has taken rights spanning Central and Eastern Europe, Middle East, South Africa, Portugal and Finland, while ABC in Australia, DR in Denmark and Medialaan in Belgium have also licensed the show.

HTI last week sold another Keo series, I Bought My Own Rainforest (3×60’).
