Broadcasters in Australia and Denmark have acquired Paul Abbott’s new drama No Offence from FremantleMedia International (FMI).

FremantleMedia’s No Offence

ABC TV in Australia and DR in Denmark are the first two broadcasters to secure the police procedural drama.

Created by screenwriter Abbott (Shameless, State of Play), the series sees a crack team of police officers clamp down on crime.

The programme is produced by AbbottVision for Channel 4 and will premiere in the UK on Tuesday May 5.

“No Offence is crime on steroids – it’s gripping, daring and a great reflection of Paul Abbott’s remarkable talents,” said Jens Richter, CEO of FMI.

FMI secured distribution rights to No Offence last month and took the show to MipTV.
