Grundy Switzerland and SF produce "The greatest Swiss talents"
Was Recherchen der Sonntagszeitung bereits am vergangenen Wochenende ergeben haben, teilt nun Ringier offiziell mit: Auf Anfang 2011 startet im Schweizer Fernsehen SF das Format «Die grössten Schweizer Talente». Produziert wird die Sendung von der Ringier Beteiligungsgesellschaft Grundy Schweiz in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Schweizer Fernsehen.
According to a press release, "Switzerland's Got Talent" (working title) is a licensed format. The original comes from England and is called "Britain's Got Talent". It was first broadcast there in 2007, with the winner of the first season, Paul Potts, and the runner-up from 2009, Susan Boyle, selling millions of albums.
Unlike "MusicStar", for example, the casting show is not just looking for singers, but for talent from all areas of entertainment. The castings are expected to take place throughout Switzerland in the fall of 2010. You can register via www.sf.tv from June 15, 2010. The host and jury will be announced at a later date.
Grundy Switzerland is a Ringier holding company (35 percent), belongs to Ringier TV and is part of the Ringier Entertainment division. "It's great to be able to bring the successful format from England to Switzerland. I am sure that we will be surprised by the variety of applicants in the search for the greatest Swiss talents. As diverse as Switzerland itself...", says Mathias Ruch, Managing Director of Grundy Switzerland and Head of Moving Image/Television at Ringier. Grundy Switzerland already produces the successful early evening program "5GEGEN5" for Swiss television.
