Granada International has been selected to distribute both the finished series and format of ‘Ballroom Bootcamp’, an entertaining family show from Original Productions, makers of worldwide hits ‘Monster Garag’e and ‘Monster House’, it has been announced by Nadine Nohr, Managing Director.
Ballroom Bootcamp is a colourful, fast-paced entertainment show that brings dreams of transformation to life. Ordinary people from all walks of life are put them a rigorous five-week training programme with top ballroom dancing professionals.
All the while, the tension and excitement builds as they get ever closer to the ultimate dance-off, where the trainee ballroom dancers compete against each other in an authentic, professionally judged dance contest.
It’s the ultimate fish-out-of-water show, following the highs and lows of average people - from plumbers to housewives, from sportsmen to couch potatoes - as they’re pushed beyond the limits of what they ever thought they could achieve and reveal why they’re so keen to put on those dancing shoes.
Thom Beers, Original Productions, creator of Ballroom Bootcamp, commented: "We're thrilled to continue our great relationship with Granada International. Ballroom Bootcamp is an exciting and family oriented programme with many twists and turns - it ultimately shows that anything is possible if you work hard enough at it. It is a true piece of feel-good TV."
Mark Reynolds, Head of Factual at Granada International, added: "We're delighted to be working again with Original Productions. Their programming has an energy and style that epitomises really good factual entertainment for all the family. I'm sure Ballroom Bootcamp will be an international success."
