Personal Managers Association
Cathy Sweet has been in touch to confirm that ITV have agreed that should the DVD of Mr Selfridge break even and make a profit there will be a 17% royalty pool as per the PACT agreement. I called James Bain to ask how this would work and he said that they are still mulling over how best to manage the paperwork. It is likely that the 5% already paid up front for UK DVD will be treated as an advance and rather than reissuing contracts in their entirety, a note confirming this arrangement will be issued to be added to the existing contracts. He also said that ITV will no longer pre-purchase UK DVD rights on any contracts other than those where they donââ¬â¢t own the rights, such as Marple.
