Markets

Mediaset Distribution is returning to Mipcom (Cannes, October 17-20, 2022) in presence with a new stand with the aim to sell hit prime time show Back to School to the international Market. Claudia Marra who handles the international format rights is happy with the further development of this show, recently aired by SAT.1 in Germany with a very good audience share 9.6% in the commercial target group and 1.5mln viewers.
Back to school is a family show, explains Marra: In each episode four celebrities face a real elementary school exam. They are tested on one subject they have prepared during a summer camp, as well as a surprise subject. During the summer camp, real students become ruthless teachers for the celebrities’. At the moment we are in discussion with several other key markets, like US, Spain, France and Belgium. I really look forward to Mipcom where I am sure other option will be closed’, added Marra.
