Zeal Entertainment Signs New Shows From Amaze TV

Format and events programming distributor Zeal Entertainment, part of the Digital Rights Group (DRG), has secured the international distribution rights to three brand new formats from independent UK production company Amaze TV - 'One of the Boys', 'Vicious Circle' and 'Ladies and the Tramps' - Managing Director Andrea Jackson has announced.
Would it be easier to see what men were really like... if you disguised yourself as one? A genuine must-see event offering an opportunity to literally change someone's life, 'One Of The Boys' takes one woman on the verge of a vitally important decision - either looking for a man to live with, work with or love - and gives her the unique chance to find out what men really think.
Using state-of-the-art prosthetics, voice and acting coaches - she will go undercover as a man - getting under their skin as 'one of the boys'!
Set in an ever-decreasing circle with ever-increasing tension, the fast-paced quiz show 'Vicious Circle' challenges twelve contestants to use their general knowledge, quick thinking and cunning tactics to defeat their opponents. Twelve players must first compete to gain entry into the circle, the six successful players then move around the circle answering questions and eliminating the competition by landing on their positions.
Dramatically, as the game progresses, the positions are removed, and as the arena becomes smaller and smaller, players require all their knowledge and tactics to survive. At the end of each show, the winner walks away with the money earned, and the loser returns to chance their luck in another 'Vicious Circle'.
'Ladies and the Tramps' is a high stakes dating format that discovers whether a man can really tell the difference between a woman in it for the money or in it for the love. As the series commences, twelve ladies selected from around the world and one man looking for true love, board a luxury yacht for a cruise around the Caribbean. Over the course of the series, the ladies will attempt to showcase themselves as the perfect partner for the lucky guy. Through a series of challenges, intimate dates and access to ship-wide CCTV, the man will, each episode, select one lady to reject.
However, six ladies are in it for the money - high-class escorts set to take home a large cash prize if they win his heart - and six are in it for the love - genuinely looking for a partner to share their lives with.
Zeal Entertainment is an independent events and formats distributor, which is owned by the Digital Rights Group, a leading UK independent distributor.
