ITV Studios has announced a slate of 10 new unscripted titles set to debut at the Mipcom market. The offerings are spearheaded by “The Chase Around the World,” a multinational treasure hunt spin-off of the popular ITV game show. The company is also bringing the latest installment of its seminal documentary series, “70 Up,” to the forefront of its unscripted lineup.
The Chenab Times has learned that “The Chase Around the World” aims to replicate the success of its originating series by expanding the quiz format to a global stage, challenging contestants across various countries. While details regarding the specific countries involved in the treasure hunt remain under wraps, the concept suggests a dynamic and geographically diverse competition.
Beyond the flagship game show spin-off, the Mipcom slate includes a diverse range of factual entertainment. “70 Up,” the latest iteration of the “Up” series, continues the decades-long project that has followed the lives of a group of British individuals every seven years since 1964. This installment promises a poignant look at aging, societal changes, and personal reflections as the participants reach a significant milestone.
The broader formats slate, comprising 10 distinct titles, signals ITV Studios’ ongoing commitment to developing and distributing adaptable entertainment properties worldwide. The company has historically found success in selling its formats to international broadcasters, allowing for localized productions that resonate with domestic audiences.
While specific details on the other nine titles were not immediately available, the announcement suggests a continued focus on established genres like game shows, observational documentaries, and potentially other factual entertainment formats that have proven popular in international markets. ITV Studios has a robust catalogue of globally recognized formats, and this new batch is expected to further diversify its international sales portfolio.
Mipcom, held annually in Cannes, France, is one of the world’s largest markets for television and digital content. It serves as a crucial platform for distributors, producers, and buyers to showcase and acquire programming, strike deals, and identify emerging trends in the global media landscape. ITV Studios’ participation underscores the significance of this event for major content creators and distributors aiming to expand their reach.
