S1 now with NZZ documentaries

The new Swiss television channel S1 is adding «NZZ Format»—the TV productions of the Neue Zürcher Zeitung—to its lineup. S1 and the NZZ have signed a cooperation agreement to this effect.

Thanks to the collaboration with the NZZ TV editorial team, S1's program will have even more Swissness, according to the press release. "We are delighted that this cooperation will enable us to do even better justice to our claim of showing high-quality TV productions," says Program Director Mike Gut. He continues: "NZZ Format is one of the most renowned documentaries in the whole of Europe and fits perfectly into our existing documentary channels and, above all, into our culinary environment with the cooking shows. S1 will be programming "NZZ Format" from April and will focus primarily on the culinary genre (e.g. fondue or the subtleties of Graubünden cuisine) and on documentaries about Swiss peculiarities such as the Postbus or Swiss locomotive legends.
