Channel 5 has picked up Web Cam Girls, a documentary produced by Back2Back Productions and backed by Brighton-based distributor Electric Sky.

The Northern & Shell-owned terrestrial is one of a number of international broadcasters that have bought the one-off doc.

The others on board so far are RTL (Netherlands), VMMA (Belgium), TV2 (Denmark), TV3 (New Zealand), TVN (Poland), Pramer (Latin America), HSCC (Israel) SBS Discovery (Finland and Norway), and ABC and Foxtel in Australia.

The 1 x 50-minute film is a follow up to My Phone Sex Secrets, which was produced by Back- 2Back for Channel 4.

Web Cam Girls looks at the bizarre world of women who work in the alternative adult industry. The webcam erotica industry is thought to be worth £80m in the UK alone, and includes such niche interests as women taking showers in baked beans or crushing tiny cars in stilettos.

Webcam Girls was produced without a UK broadcaster attached, and Electric Sky topped up the funding in return for the international rights.

Electric Sky head of acquisitions Stella Brisley said: “After our success with My Phone Sex Secrets, we knew the follow-up would sell far and wide. “The winning combination of Back2Back’s proven production skills, together with our team’s track record for closing sales, gave us the confi dence to invest in the fi lm knowing a UK sale would be achievable.”

Back2Back managing director David Notman-Watt added: “We needed a distribution partner with biceps to take this project on and Electric Sky rose to the challenge having already sold sister documentary My Phone Sex Secrets worldwide.”
