BBC Worldwide has announced pre-sales for Hidden Kingdoms to a raft of broadcasters, ahead of MIPCOM 2013.

Hidden Kingdoms (3 x 50′) is produced by Mark Brownlow (Planet Earth, South Pacific) and the Executive Producer of Africa, Life and One Life (Mike Gunton).
Wild Brazil is another new title on BBC Worldwide’s factual slate, pre-sold to Germany (WDR) and Sweden (SVT). The series comes from the producers of Meerkat Manor and Elephant Diaries (Lucinda Axelsson) and 24/ 7 Wild and Springwatch (Tim Scoones).
Mark Reynolds, Director, Factual Content BBC Worldwide said: “The pre-sales for our outstanding productions such as Hidden Kingdoms and Wild Brazil are a testament to the quality of BBC Worldwide’s content at MIPCOM this year.
