Recent years have seen an astonishing growth in the adaptation of program formats in television systems across the world. Under the new market conditions of the multi-channel cluster brought about by new technologies and increased privatisation of service, the adaptation of successful and popular TV formats from one place to another is occurring on an increasingly regular basis. Hence the remaking of different national versions of Big Brother and Pop idol are only part of what is going on. In fact, from Chinese versions of Coronation Street and Sex and the City, Indian and Indonesian remakes of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? program clones of Ground Force and other make-over and renovation shows across Europe and the UK, the present is the era of the global TV format.

'Albert Moran with Justin Malbon wrote a very timely book which will be useful for anyone studying and/or researching global television industries... Moran's book is especially useful and illuminating as it provides an examination of the institutional background and motivations of the development of global tv formats using interviews with prominent people from the industry.' -- Dr Agnes Gulyas, Art, Design and Media Subject centre.
