SBS buys into British royalty

A young Queen Elizabeth II

MIPCOM: Australian pubcaster SBS has pre-bought two forthcoming documentaries about the British royal family from UK-based distributor TCB Media Rights.

The first documentary, Elizabeth (8×60’), is produced by ITN Productions for the UK’s Channel 5 and charts the life of the current British queen and her almost seven-decade rule.

The other is The Private Lives of the Monarchs (5×60’) from Like A Shot Productions. The series, which has also been pre-sold to UKTV and Viasat, will follow Tracy Borman, joint chief curator of the Royal Palaces, as she delves into the British monarchy.

Release dates for the shows have yet to be confirmed.

Last week TCB Media Rights was taken over by Canada’s Kew Media Group.
