Channel 4 acquires Russian drama for Walter Presents

Channel 4 acquires Russian drama for Walter Presents
Channel 4 acquires the rights to Russia's top drama for its foreign language streaming service Walter Presents.

Channel 4 has acquired a show dubbed "the Russian version of Dynasty" for its foreign language streaming service Walter Presents.

Russian Affairs, which will be renamed Gold Diggers in the UK, is described as "a glossy drama about power, money, and sex in present-day Russia".

The programme is currently the top-rated show in Russia and has aired two seasons, with a third currently in development.

Walter Iuzzolino, who curates the content for the platform, told Variety: "It's a sassy, lavish and unmissable saga of lost innocence, sexual manipulation and greed, and unlike any Russian series I have ever seen before."

The series will join Walter Presents, which is available free through All4, later this year.
