BBC Greenlights Brian Cox Mars Doc; Channel 4 Privatization Reactions; ‘MasterChef’ France; – Global Briefs

The UK broadcasting and production sector has reacted with dismay to the confirmation hat Channel 4 will be privatized and given the option to create shows in-house. Broadcasting Union Bectu Head Philippa Childs said “there could not be a worse time to introduce further uncertainty to the creative industries, who were among the hardest hit by the pandemic and continue to face a chronic skills shortage.

Channel 4 will study the White Paper issued by the government and a considered response will follow. However, Channel 4 remains committed to upholding and maximising its remit and public service purpose that has enabled it to shape Britain’s creative culture and make a significant contribution to the creative industries, while also investing across the UK’s Nations and Regions to create local and regional economic and social benefit.” The move will be formally brought in front of UK parliament next month and take around two years. The news was delivered in a UK government White Paper late last night, which also included a mega revamp of the laws that govern UK broadcasting and production including on prominence and regulation of streaming services.

Rights strikes multiple deals around the world. Endemol France will produce the series, in which contestants are challenged to create the best dishes for the judges. “return to France, joining a recent spate of reboots, demonstrates the show’s enduring appeal across the globe,” said Lucas Green, Banijay Global Head of Content Operations.Endeavor Content-backed UK studio The Story Collective has changed its name from The Story Company and made a trio of senior hires.
