London – BBC Showcase will see approximately 500 TV buyers from around the world over the four day event held annually in Brighton. The flagship event for British television, held from 22 – 25 February, provides a major boost to television exports and accounts for around 20 percent of BBC Worldwide’s annual programme sales. The event is an international platform for British talent as buyers view over 1400 hours of TV content and attend premieres of brand new programmes. The event will be launching two new titles, produced by Dangerous Films, to tie in with the 40th anniversary of man’s first walk on the moon: The Space Age: NASA’s Story, a complete history of mankind’s journey into space, and Moonshot, a feature length docudrama. “The four day event provides a fundamental boost to BBC and to our indie partners, not just through revenues but also by creating partnership opportunities with international media companies,” said BBC Worldwide’s managing director sales & distribution, Steve Macallister.
