It’s A Sin

South Africa-based pay TV broadcaster MultiChoice has picked up more than 40 hours of programming from All3Media International for its M-Net channel and Showmax streamer.

The deal includes Russell T Davies’ drama It’s A Sin, which will become available for African audiences for the first time via an exclusive deal with Showmax.

The series is from Red Productions and tracks a group of friends as they grow up in the 1980s in the shadow of AIDS.

Other scripted titles include Drama Republic’s The English, as well as Two Brothers Pictures’ The Tourist and Angela Black.

Unscripted titles include Highlife, the reality show from All3Media-owned Optomen Television that follows a generation of young, influential, trailblazing West African Brits living in London.
