International Emergency for Lineup

MIPCOM: Broadcasters in Europe and Australia have acquired fast-paced documentary format Emergency Call from Dutch distributor Lineup Industries.

Emergency Call

Seven Network in Australia, Germany’s Vox, EO/NPO1 in the Netherlands, Italy’s Rai2 and C8 in France, via Coyote Productions, are set to make local versions of the format.

The show follows the life in an emergency call centre through the experiences of the people who work there.

Created by the team behind Radio Gaga, Emergency Call has already aired on French-language Belgian public broadcaster RTBF and Eén, the Flemish public channel in the same country.

Describing the show, Lineup co-founder Julian Curtis said: “This is an unprecedented real-life look behind the scenes of front line services. The operators who field calls to the emergency services literally have no idea what they will face each time they answer.”
