Sogecable and chellomedia’s Multicanal have announced an agreement under which the latter will acquire the assets of the documentary channel Documania. Multicanal will then go on re-launch its own documentary channel Odisea in April, offering a much wider variety of programming than at present. Both Documenia and Odisea are long-established services, having been launched 14 and 10 years ago respectively. As a result of the deal, Odisea will become the leading documentary channel not just in Spain but also in neighbouring Portugal.
