  • Seven Productions' House Rules Goes Global
    Seven Productions’ House Rules Goes Global 6 June 2017 -- Seven Productions, the production arm of Australia’s market-leading Seven Network, today confirmed that one of its key franchises, House Rules, has secured a significant international broadcast breakthrough. House Rules has been commissioned by ProSiebenSat.1 Media in Germany. It will be produced by RedSeven Entertainment, a part of Red Arrow Entertainment Group. This new commission builds on the enormous success House Rules has achieved in the Netherlands where a second season has delivered exceptional ratings for Net5. In addition to a continued focus on the development of local formats, the Australian version of House Rules is broadcast across multiple international markets, including Ireland, Spain, the Philippines, Canada, France, Russia, Portugal, South Africa, Hungary, Belgium, Latin America, Germany, New Zealand and Italy. In Australia, House Rules is up 9.2% in audience on 2016 and growing. This year, it has delivered a peak viewing audience of 2.43 million and market leadership in total viewers, 16-39s, 18-49s and 25-54s. Seven has confirmed the commissioning of a new series for the 2018 Australian television season. Commenting, Therese Hegarty, Director of Content and Rights for Seven said: “The confirmation of this local commission with ProSiebenSat.1 Media in Germany is testament to the strength of the House Rules format. We are excited with this development and look forward to House Rules continued success in global markets.” House Rules’ increasing international footprint mirrors the success of one of Seven’s other key franchises, My Kitchen Rules. Seven has created and produced My Kitchen Rules for FOX in the United States and Channel 4 in the United Kingdom, and for TVNZ in New Zealand.

For the first time in Australian free-to-air television history, there will be 45 dedicated Olympic channels across Seven and 7plus all live, free and in HD. Australia’s most loved and respected sports broadcaster Bruce McAvaney returns for his 11th Olympic Games coverage, with Seven’s team featuring some of Australia’s greatest ever Olympians, who between them have racked up numerous Olympic and World Championship gold medals and 22 World Titles plus hundreds of Games both as competitors and broadcasters. On Wednesday, Seven announced its coverage would be anchored by Hamish McLachlan, Abbey Gelmi, Johanna Griggs, Luke Darcy, Matt Shirvington, Edwina Bartholomew, Lisa Sthalekar and Andy Maher. Leading Seven’s contingent on the ground in Tokyo, Mel McLaughlin, Mark Beretta, Jason Richardson and Nathan Templeton will make sure audiences are kept up to date with all the latest news, colour and atmosphere of the Games. Australia’s cycling golden girl Anna Meares, who won six medals including two gold across four Olympic Games, is one of the exciting new additions to Seven’s commentary team, along with former champion ironwoman Candice Warner.
