Poland, Portugal enter BBC’s Room

The UK version of You’re Back in the Room 

BBC SHOWCASE: Broadcasters in Poland and Portugal have ordered local versions of BBC Worldwide (BBCWW) hypnosis entertainment format You’re Back in the Room.

Eight episodes of the format are currently in production in Poland with production group ATM Grupa for Discovery Communications-owned free-to-air channel TVN under the local title Hipnoza.

Meanwhile, in Portugal, the show will be produced by Shine Iberia for Impresa-owned commercial broadcaster SIC under the title DivertidaMente.

Both versions are due to air this spring. The comedy gameshow sees five strangers taking on a series of apparently simple challenges while hypnotised.

The format, originally produced by Tuesday’s Child for ITV in the UK in 2015, has also previously sold to broadcasters such as RTL in the Netherlands, Pro Plus in Slovenia and W9 in France.

Back in the Room is among an array of finished shows and formats being sold at BBCWW’s Showcase event here in Liverpool, UK, which is taking place this week and attracts more than 700 international programme buyers every year.
