Munich, October 6, 2009. The Dutch hit series S1NGLE will run in Austria next year. SevenOne International, the worldwide programming distribution company of the ProSiebenSat.1 Group, has sold the dramedy to ORF1. The successful TV series about the three girlfriends Stella, Fatima and Nienke, who stand side by side through the ups and downs of life and love, is produced by FourOne Media. The series will be broadcast in Austria starting in the second quarter of 2010. The long running hit series "S1NGLE" gave the Dutch TV station Net 5 market shares of up to 150% above its average.
