Sky Vision sells 100 hours into CEE

UK-based distributor Sky Vision has sealed a raft of sales with broadcasters across Europe as the NATPE market in Budapest kicks off.

The biggest single deal is with Russia’s first IPTV service Stream, which has taken a 72-hour package that includes fishing series from indie producer Wildwise Catching the Impossible and Passion for Angling.

Pan-regional broadcaster Viasat has also bought a package of programming including Objective Productions’ Sky 1 fact-ent series and format Make Me a Millionaire Inventor.

In Ukraine Inter TV has picked up a pair of series featuring naturalist David Attenborough, Galapagos and Kingdom of Plants (pictured). Polish pubcaster TVP has also taken both Attenborough shows and Russia’s Kultura has acquired Galapagos.

Sky Vision is the sales arm of News Corp.-backed UK pay TV platform BSkyB.
