UKTV Food gets takeaways

UKTV Food has picked up four international culinary titles including the 5 x 60-minute Greatest Dishes in the World from Shine Reveille International and the 9 x 30-minute Kylie Kwong: My China from Fremantle Media.

The other two titles are the 13 x 30-minute second series of Food Safari, bought from SBS Australia, and the 13 x 30-minute second series of Glutton for Punishment which it acquired from Filmoption International. The latter features host Bob Blumer undertaking physically daunting, food-related challenges. All four deals were negotiated by UKTV acquisitions manager Alexandra Finlay.
