Don't trust anyone...⚠️ The Heart of Britain sleeper train from Glasgow to London has been "hackjacked" (hijacks are so 20th century). Can two people who’ve never met, one on the train and one not, work together to save the lives of its disparate group of passengers as the locomotive hurtles towards what might quite literally be its final destination? #Nightsleeper airs this Sunday 15 September on BBC One and iPlayer. A Euston Films production, penned by award-winning writer Nick Leather Fremantle is handling global distribution. #MadeByFremantle

Fremantle orchestrates global sales for epic Mozart docu-drama 🎻 Mozart: Rise of a Genius, a new and insightful three-part docu-drama from 72 Films (a Fremantle company), offers an in-depth exploration of the life and enduring legacy of one of history’s most revered cultural figures: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Enriched by contributions from some of the world’s most eminent historians, musicologists, and classical music luminaries - including Stephen Fry, Sheila Hancock, Richard E Grant, and Adjoa Andoh - the series examines the tragically short yet profoundly impactful 35 years of the musical prodigy who revolutionised the world of music. Jens Richter, CEO, Commercial and International, Fremantle, said: “Mozart: Rise of a Genius is a powerful series that celebrates the brilliance of Mozart and highlights the complex, fascinating world he navigated during his lifetime. We are delighted to collaborate again with 72 Films and the BBC to share this remarkable story with our partners and their audiences, who will gain a fresh perspective on this legendary figure.” Set against the backdrop of a flourishing European culture, the series charts Mozart's journey from high-society darling to rebellious outsider. Mozart: Rise of a Genius is produced by 72 Films (a Fremantle company) and premieres 16 September on BBC Two and BBC iPlayer. Fremantle is handling worldwide distribution for the docuseries.
