UK Network Finds Love Behind Bars

June 25

US distributor CABLEready has pre-sold its upcoming crime documentary pilot LOVE BEHIND BARS to a UK pay-TV network.

Crime and Investigation UK, carried on the BSkyB platform, is likely to air the show some time in 2009, CABLEready’s president Gary Lico told C21.

LOVE BEHIND BARS, a planned series about women who fall in love with incarcerated men, is produced by Canada’s CMJ Productions, the company behind CABLEready titles such as STUNT STARS and ACCIDENT INVESTIGATOR.

Lico said that Crime and Investigation pre-bought the LOVE BEHIND BARS pilot on the strength of this programming history. The channel already airs several CABLEready series, including the popular MEDICAL DETECTIVES.
