Granada International Signs Deal With Orange For SVOD And VOD

Granada International has concluded a non-exclusive three-year volume deal with Orange for SVOD and VOD in France.
Orange's VOD services are available via set-top box, ADSL network and internet. Also available via set top box are Orange's SVOD Services, which launched last November with '24/24 Musique' and '24/24 Jeunesse' (music and animated series). From June 2007 this service will be extended for subscribers to include drama series.
Granada International titles included in the first selection include Space 1999, The Persuaders, Brideshead Revisited, Agatha Christie�s Poirot, Inspector Morse, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Also included in the deal is a package of feature films including The Last Seduction, To Die For, The African Queen, Bugsy Malone and a number of films directed by suspense legend Alfred Hitchcock.
Granada International Managing Director Nadine Nohr commented: "We are currently digitizing our catalogue, which contains many series which are well known throughout the world, at a rate of 450 hours per week. Working with VOD and SVOD suppliers is a further opportunity for us to maximize revenue from our extensive range of programming and offer a number of non-exclusive volume deals for many companies in the market that are keen to acquire content that will have a broad appeal to their new customers."
