Fiver brings Lohan family to the UK
Channel Five's digital outlet, Fiver, has secured the rights to US reality shows featuring wild child Lindsay Lohan's family and the actor Denise Richards.
Living Lohan, which was commissioned by the US channel E!, follows Lindsay's mother, Dina, as she manages her younger daughter, Ali, who is trying to become a star.
Denise Richards: It's Complicated, made by American Idol presenter Ryan Seacrest's self-titled production company, follows the former wife of Charlie Sheen as she "navigates Hollywood, romance and motherhood following a tumultuous year in the tabloid headlines".
Richards, a former Bond girl, will be seen "picking up the pieces of her life in the wake of a bitter public divorce from Charlie Sheen and the recent death of her mother".
Living Lohan launches on Fiver, previously called Five Life, on June 19 while Denise Richards: It's Complicated will air later in the year.
The deal for the two shows was negotiated by the Fiver deputy controller of acquisitions, Katie Keenan, with Duccio Donati, the senior vice-president of Comcast International Media Group, for E! Entertainment Network
