EDMONTON – Super Channel has acquired the UK comedy drama Gap Year from Entertainment One.
The eight-episode, hour-long series will make its Canadian broadcast premiere on September 14 at 9:00 PM ET (SC1), and each episode will also be available to viewers on Super Channel On Demand the day following its weekly linear broadcast.
From the BAFTA-nominated producers of the critically acclaimed series Glue and The Enfield Haunting, Gap Year follows a motley gang of travellers who embark on a three-month trip around Asia. Despite wielding travel guides, digital cameras and water purification tablets, the gang is not treating this as a holiday, and all have a personal quest that’s brought them halfway round the world. None of them get what they hoped for, but all gain something better, as they learn that no matter how far you go and how hard you try, you can’t take a holiday from yourself.
