TVF preps factual for MipTV

Wildlife series New Species

UK-based factual distributor TVF International is to offer shows about lunar exploration, eugenics and archaeology at MipTV next week.

TVF has 150 hours of new content for the market in Cannes, with shows including Apollo’s New Moon from Thomas Lucas Productions, which uses state-of-the-art, upgraded archive footage to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landing.

Other science titles include upcoming BBC documentary You, Me & Eugenics from Furnace Productions, with which TVF has an exclusive first-look arrangement. The film examines the science and ethics behind manipulating genetic inheritance, changing human evolution and breeding a “better” human.

Also on the slate is UK prodco Rare TV’s BBC show Digging for Britain (29×60′), which follows professor Alice Roberts as she explores exciting archaeological finds from across Britain, and Babel Studios’ four-part series Asia in the Great War (4×48’).

On the factual entertainment front, TVF has added long-running series Winter Road Warriors (28×22’) to its slate. The show is produced by Pixcom in Canada and follows a family-run snow-removal business facing freezing temperatures, ice storms and white-outs in its quest to keep the roads clear.

Other series on offer will include fishing show Monster Carp (16×46’) and Art Attack (8×22′), plus wildlife shows such as Singapore’s Secret Forests with David Attenborough (1×46’) and New Species (2×43’).
