Prospectors has been picked up by Fokus TV

Polish broadcasters Fokus TV and TVN have picked up a raft of factual content from UK sales house Passion Distribution ahead of the Natpe Budapest market next week.

Fokus TV has taken a package of more than 60 hours of content including male-skewing factual entertainment shows Prospectors (season four, 10×60′), Timber Kings (season three, 12×60′) and Cold Water Cowboys (seasons two and three, 16×60′).

TVN’s slate of 20 hours includes eight episodes of Unreported World and Weather Gone Viral (8×60′), which will air on its TTV channel.

The Unreported World episodes include Muslim, Trans and Bannered and The Betrayal of Kenya’s Athletes, both of which were produced by Quicksilver Media for Channel 4 in the UK.

Elsewhere, Discovery has picked up a second season of Mentorn media’s Make You Laugh Out Loud for its Polish feed, and one-off docs including Seventy with a Six Pack and How the Rich Get Hitched for its CEEMEA channels.

Agnes Mbye, sales manager for Passion Distribution, said: “Poland continues to be our biggest market in Central Europe thanks to the growing number of free DTT channels. Interestingly, their viewers look for programmes they are familiar with, which makes the market even more competitive but also allows for more windowing.”
