Claudia Marra, who oversees format rights for Mediaset Distribution, commented, “I am very happy with the success of this format that is collecting interest worldwide after its first presentation at MIPTV ‘Fresh around the world’ in April. Everyone likes the idea of mini-teachers having to do with celebrities in an entertaining reversion of roles. After lockdown and sad things continuing to happen, a show that will reunite family and large target groups of all ages for a good moment of relax and fun. I guess we really need it.”
