Once again, Televisi?n Espa?ola?s programmes and channels (TVE Internacional and 24 Horas) will be showcased at this prestigious international market. Led by its Sales team, RTVE will present the historical series ?Isabel? as one of the main cornerstones of its strategy.
This fictional series recreates the reign of Isabella I of Castile, one of the most important women in Spain.
Another show in the fiction category, ?Vintage?, tells the secrets, romances and betrayals of two wine-making families from La Rioja: the Cort?zars and the Revertes. The prequel will be coming soon to TVE?s daily afternoon slot. ?Vintage: Origin?, currently in production, is a series set 45 years before ?Vintage? that will reveal the events leading up to the saga.
Other series include ?Love in Difficult Times?, with over 1,700 episodes over the course of seven years on TVE, and ?Mom Detective?, a detective comedy based on the entertaining character of inspector Laura Lebrel.
Once again, RTVE?s audiovisual catalogue will be present at MIPTV, which this year is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Televisi?n Espa?ola has attended this audiovisual market since its inception.
