Life Down Under channel launches on Samsung TV Plus

Radar MCN has launched its second owned FAST channel bringing together a selection of its most well loved shows.

Life Down Under, which will initially be available on Samsung TV Plus in Australia and New Zealand, features hit series including Keeping Up With The Joneses, Lee Chan’s World Food Tour and Tony Robinson’s Time Walks.

“It’s always been an ambition of the business to bring together content from across our extensive library into one broadcast destination. We receive messages from fans every week asking how they catch watch certain series. Now they can do that,” said Radar MCN General Manager Derek Dyson.

“We’re not just anticipating this being an domestic success. We know through our distribution business Fred Media that appetite for Australian content has never been higher. We’re already in discussions with international partners about taking Life Down Under to the world,” he added.

Radar MCN hit the headlines with its recent announcement of its Total Distribution service; working with content owners to monetise their IP across every available channel worldwide.

“We’re practicing what we preach with Life Down Under. It’s us doing Total Distribution on ourselves; shows that having been sitting on the shelves for some time are now back out there, driving a return,” Dyson added.
