BBC Teams With ZDF to Produce Premium Drama Series

The U.K. TV network BBC and German broadcaster ZDF have announced a partnership to collaborate on producing premium drama series. This exciting venture has already led to the commissioning of two new shows – “Honey,” a spy thriller from Sid Gentle Films Ltd, and the second season of “A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder,” a young adult mystery thriller co-produced with Netflix and created by Moonage Pictures.

The aim of this partnership is to leverage the strengths of both broadcasters. By combining ZDF’s expertise in pan-European co-productions with the BBC’s history of successful and award-winning scripted titles, the collaboration is set to offer a unique opportunity for production companies to work with two major European broadcasters. This alignment from the beginning will allow for seamless creative collaboration and the potential for even more compelling content to be produced.

This partnership marks an exciting new chapter in European television production, with both BBC and ZDF committed to pushing boundaries and delivering high-quality, engaging drama series to audiences across the continent. Stay tuned for more updates on this innovative collaboration.
