Espresso TV Signs Deals With Rai TV And Fox International Channels

UK independent factual and history distributor, Espresso TV, has signed its first distribution deals with two of Italy’s biggest broadcasters Rai TV and Fox International Channels Italy, in collaboration with its Italian partner, Lilium Distribution.
'Because It’s There' (4x30mins) was sold to Rai TV, and is a true adventure series which follows a small group of travellers on an action packed journey which sees them mountaineering to the summits of Tibet, sailing through storms in the Atlantic, and cycling through the Gobi desert of Mongolia.
'Fighting the Blue' (4x60min) was sold to Fox International Channels Italy, a social history documentary exploring the courage and resilience of the human spirit during the Battle for Britain.
David Hooper, Managing Director, Espresso TV said: “I am particularly pleased that Espresso is now providing content to two of the largest broadcasters in Europe. We hope to build on these announcements with Rai TV and Fox International Channels Italy with more deals in the future.”
