Fremantle has sold out most major territories worldwide on the Martin Freeman-led BBC One smash hit “The Responder,” consolidating the acclaimed crime drama’s contention, even at this early stage, to become one of Europe’s top series of 2022.
Banner deals take in France (Canal Plus), Italy (Disney Plus), Germany’s (Magenta TV). Spain (Movistar Plus) and Russia & Cis (Viasat), all leading pay/SVOD operators.
The sales come as Fremantle, thanks to “The Responder,” “Cross Fire,” “Suspect” and “This Sceptred Isle” looks set to see an unprecedented four U.K. premium dramas finishing production in 2022. Led by “Fellow Travelers,” its English-language sales lineup for 2023 looks equally bullish.
In all, in 2022 Fremantle’s U.K. drama output will more than double compared to the previous year, said Jens Richter, at Fremantle’s global sales arm, Fremantle International, which he oversees as CEO.
That, however, is part of larger global surge.

Exclusive: Killing Eve producer Sid Gentle Films is teaming with Copperheart Entertainment, producers of the Ginger Snaps trilogy of cult horror movies, on a TV series adaptation of the darkly comic tale of teenage sisterhood. The project is executive produced by John Fawcett, co-creator and director of the original film and co-creator and executive producer of BBC America’s award-winning series, Orphan Black.
Anna Ssemuyaba (Guerilla) will write the potential Ginger Snaps TV series, which tells the story of sisters, Ginger and Brigette, who are self-imposed outcasts in their hometown. Inseparable and fascinated with the macabre, they make a pact to escape their sleepy suburban home by sixteen or else take their own lives. But on the night of her first period, Ginger is attacked and infected by a werewolf which unleashes a monstrous kind of puberty. Brigette can’t understand this new version of her sister who is violent and sexual.

Even as the U.K. celebrates Black History Month, Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (Bame) people are seriously underrepresented in senior TV leadership jobs, a survey conducted by the Creative Diversity Network (Cdn) has found.
The data shows that while on-screen representation of Bame people is improving, contributions to programs made by Bame people working behind the camera fall below 10% in most senior roles. Just 2.4% of production executives, 4.4% of series producers, 8.3% of heads of production and 9.3% production managers identify as Bame.
Some 12.8% of the U.K. population is classified Bame. Only camera operators came close to this numbers, with 12.5% Bame people represented in this role.
The survey also finds that in spite of the success of recent shows like the BBC’s “Noughts & Crosses” and “I May Destroy You,” Sky’s “Save Me,” and ITV’s “Unsaid Stories,” only 1.6% of writers working in U.K. TV identify as Black — compared to 3% of the general population.
