Relative newcomer Money Drop was the top format title by value created in 2012; pushing Come Dine with Me into second place. The TV Formats in Europe report further states that The Voice entered the top 10 in 2012. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire was the top title in both 2009 and 2010, but had dropped to ninth in 2012.
Endemol ($711 million – 26% of the total) was the leading distributor by value created in 2012, followed by FremantleMedia ($456 million – 17%). ITV was third, with 10% of the total. So, these three distributors combined took 53% of the total value created.
These top three distributors accounted for half of the format hours screened in 2012. ITV Studios (5,425 hours) is the largest distributor by hours, mainly due to Come Dine with Me.
