Next round for the “Bastards”: after terrific ratings on NBC, International Emmy and Rose d’Or winning “Benidorm Bastards” are now heading for Spain. “Los Mayores Gamberros” (local title) will premiere on La Sexta early 2013.
Carmen Ferreiro, Director of Programmes, says: “We first saw ‘Benidorm Bastards’ at MIP and we loved it. We are confident that it will be a rating success”.
Axel Böhm, Senior Vice President Sales Spain at Red Arrow International says: “The ‘Bastards’ are unstoppable. First Scandinavia, then the U.S. and UK and now Spain: I’m certain the ‘Gamberros’ will take La Sexta’s audience by storm.”
