  • France's Banijay Group Buys Endemol Shine to Create European Production Giant
    Publication date: 28 Oct 2019 Author: Tim Westcott Director, Research and Analysis, Programming France's Banijay Group buys Endemol Shine to create European production giant Brought to you by Informa Tech France's Banijay Group buys Endemol Shine to 1 create European production giant France-based production company Banijay Group has reached agreement to acquire Endemol Shine Group from Walt Disney Company and US hedge fund Apollo Global Management. The price for the deal was not disclosed but is widely reported to be $2.2 billion. A statement from the group said the deal will be financed through a capital increase of Banijay Group and debt. On closure, subject to regulatory clearances and employee consultations. Post-closing, the combined group will be majority owned (67.1%) by LDH, the holding company controlled by Stephane Courbit's LOV Group, and Vivendi (32.9%), which invested in Banijay in 2014. The merged group said it will own almost 200 production companies in 23 territories and the rights for close to 100,000 hours of content, adding that total pro-forma revenue of the combined group is expected to be €3 billion ($3.3 billion) this year. Endemol Shine Group is jointly owned by Disney, which acquired its 50% stake as part of its acquisition of 21st Century Fox last year, and funds managed by affiliates of Apollo Global Management. Endemol Shine has 120 production labels and owns 66,000 hours of scripted and non- scripted programming and over 4,300 registered formats. Our analysis Endemol Shine Group has been up for sale since last year, and Banijay Group appears to be have been the only potential buyer to have made an offer, despite reported interest from All3Media, RTL Group-owned Fremantle and others.

The authors thank Ben Aigboboh, an associate in the Century City office, for his assistance with this article. 97 For exclusive use of MLRC members and other parties specifically authorized by MLRC. © Media Law Resource Center, Inc. LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING I. INTRODUCTION Television networks constantly compete to find and produce the next big hit. The shifting economic landscape forged by increasing competition between and among ever-proliferating media platforms, however, places extreme pressure on network profit margins. Fully scripted hour-long dramas and half-hour comedies have become increasingly costly, while delivering diminishing ratings in the key demographics most valued by advertisers. It therefore is not surprising that the reality television genre has become a staple of network schedules. New reality shows are churned out each season.1 The main appeal, of course, is that they are cheap to make and addictive to watch. Networks are able to take ordinary people and create a show without having to pay “A-list” actor salaries and hire teams of writers.2 Many of the most popular programs are unscripted, meaning lower cost for higher ratings. Even where the ratings are flat, such shows are capable of generating higher profit margins through advertising directed to large groups of more readily targeted viewers.

  • Copyrightability and Formats of Television Shows Under English Law
    This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article that will be published by Bloomsbury Professional in the Communications Law journal (volume 23, issue 2, pp. 89-92) Copyrightability and formats of television shows under English law Alexandros K. Antoniou, PhD, FHEA University of Essex School of Law Abstract The article discusses the High Court decision in Banner Universal Motion Pictures Ltd v Endemol Shine Group Ltd (Ch D) on whether the format for a television game show can be eligible for copyright protection under English law. It analyses the conditions required for the format of such shows to be classified as dramatic works and considers the importance of the decision for the media industry. Keywords: copyright, format rights, television, dramatic works Background The case in Banner Universal Motion Pictures Ltd v Endemol Shine Group Ltd & Anor1 related to a television game show format called Minute Winner, in which members of the public, who have been randomly selected and without warning, could win a prize after successfully completing a minute-long challenge. It was devised in 2003 by Mr. Derek Banner, a Danish citizen, and could be broadcast as daily or weekly show, either singly as a one-minute fill in;, or between, other main programmes;, or in a programme break; or as a feature length 30-minute show involving several games. Mr. Banner argued that in 2005 he held meetings in Stockholm with Friday TV, a Swedish production company, at which confidential information was disclosed and Minute Winner was mentioned. Following the meeting, Mr. Banner sent the co-founder of Friday TV an unsolicited email to which he had attached a version of the document in which the Minute Winner format was contained (the Minute Winner document).

Oh - and get fantastic results. Someone recently described me as having a “too diverse, erratic” set of skills. It wasn’t meant as a compliment but I took it as one. I’ve worked in content over a significant period of time and I’ve experienced how it can shift and manifest in different ways according to what the audience needs. I’m platform agnostic – I have got my hands dirty in all sorts of ways – print, online, TV. What matters is that you know your audience and you make quality content they’ll devour. My career objective is that simple – deliver work that activates audiences: to buy, to read, to watch, to engage, to laugh or to cry. I have had a lot of experience managing teams – big and small. I love managing people – I like to motivate them, I enjoy mentoring and the feeling of watching your team reach a satisfying and effective solution is a great one. I get the best out of people. I love entertaining audiences and I believe that comes down to excellent storytelling. I have travelled the world in my role and personal life and found that content that resonates has one thing in common – it means something to people. Whether it is as grand as making their lives better or as simple as starting and ending the day with a smile.
