FormatBiz | Doctor Foster Heads to Slovakia: TV Markíza Secures BBC Studios Scripted Format License

BBC Studios partners with Markíza Group to bring the compelling drama Doctor Foster to Slovak audiences. The 10-part adaptation, titled Zrada (Betrayal), stars Klára Issová and Milan Ondrík, airing weekly on TV Markíza from February 5th at 20:30.

Originally created by Mike Bartlett, the BAFTA-winning series explores a doctor's life unraveling amid suspicions of her husband's affair. With successful adaptations worldwide, including Japan, South Korea, France, Turkey, the Philippines, and Indonesia, André Renaud from BBC Studios expresses excitement about reaching Slovak viewers.

Silvia Majeská, Programme Director of Markíza Group, anticipates the strong storyline and top-notch production quality to captivate audiences. BBC Studios, the world's leading scripted format distributor, continues to expand the global reach of "Doctor Foster" nearly a decade after its original UK broadcast.
