Viaplay has agreed to sell its Dutch operations to DPG Media-owned Videoland for approximately 1.6 billion crowns, with proceeds intended to support deleveraging and sharpen focus on its Nordic core. The broker views the transaction as strategically sensible, strengthening the balance sheet and improving liquidity headroom while signaling management confidence in the Nordic plan.BroadcastnowBanijay’s Upside Down lands first international remakeBrazilian broadcaster Globo has greenlit the first international adaptation of Banijay's Dutch competition format "Upside Down," to be produced by Banijay's Brazilian division Endemol Shine Brasil at Banijay Studios in Latin America. The format, originally created by EndemolShine Nederland for Dutch streamer Videoland, features celebrity families competing inside a studio that is literally inverted with physical challenges, quiz games, and immersive technology.
