yes Studios to make London Screenings debut

February 12, 2026

yes Studios has formally joined the growing London Screenings event for the first time this year, with a dedicated session for buyers on February 23rd.

The yes Studios’ event will feature two back-to-back screenings, introducing invited buyers to a wealth of new content, ranging from brand new dramas and comedies to new seasons of established favourites.

Leading the new slate is Brewing Trouble (7 x 35’), a sharp, character-driven comedy about family, failure, and second chances… all served with a splash of homemade moonshine! Created and written by Adar Meirom and Omri Amit and produced by yes TV and No Drama Studios, it tells the story of a young millennial, Yuval, whose money worries force him to return to his desert hometown and his eccentric, gun-toting grandfather, Shmulik. Together, they take advantage of Shmulik’s secret talent for brewing moonshine and start an illegal business that not only turns into a hilarious partnership, but also captures unwanted attention from both the police and a local Bedouin crime clan.

On Standby (10 x 25’) is a comedy drama about Sagit, a 33-year-old security officer at the airport, who watches everyone else take off while her life remains somewhat grounded. Between caring for her sarcastic yet dependent father, her detached mother, and a job that was meant to be temporary, Sagit has forgotten what it means to move forward. Seeking an outlet, she joins a writing class, where her cynical humour and buried dreams begin to surface, along with an unexpected chance at love. Warm, funny and heartfelt, On Standby was created and written by Gitit Fisher and produced by yes TV & Yoav Gross Productions.

Strangers (6 x 40’) is a new drama based on the best-selling novel ‘On Her Own’ by Lihi Lapid, who has also co-written the series with Zion Rubin. It is produced by United Studios of Israel and yes TV. Strangers follows Nina (17), who, in a bid to escape certain death after witnessing a murder, seeks refuge with Carmela (78), a disorientated woman who mistakes Nina for her own granddaughter. Set between Israel and the US, Strangers is a turbulent, thrilling and touching story about families seeking redemption and connection, and about strangers and the unexpected places where love grows.

Also being screened at the event is dark comedy Little Fucker (7 x 30’). Announced at MIPCOM, the series created by Ariel Waysman and Niv Majar and produced by yes TV and Tedy Productions. follows 12-year-old Shay, an outcast in his family and at school, as he discovers his father’s secret affair and begins blackmailing him, turning the family dynamics upside down.

yes Studios will also be sharing video of Season 2 of romantic comedy series Bloody Murray (9 x 25’), created, written and directed by Stav Idisis and produced by yes TV and Kastina Communications. The new series follows best friends Dana and Murray as they continue on their hope-filled mission to grab life before it grabs them.

In addition to the titles being screened, yes Studios has also recently added Children in the Woods (10 x 45’) to its slate for 2026. This dark psychological thriller follows Ami, an Israeli investigator who uncovers an international syndicate trafficking newborn babies, and Audrey, a Spanish investigator with whom she joins forces to track the movements of mothers and children across both countries and through the Darknet. Children in the Woods is written and created by Dalit Kahan and produced by yes TV and Edemol Shine Israel.

Sharon Levi, managing director at yes Studios, comments: “London Screenings has grown into an important event for distributors and buyers and represents a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase the breadth and depth of our current and upcoming content.

“As people have come to expect from yes Studios, we have some gripping, edge-of-seat dramas to talk about, such as Strangers, alongside several new comedies that range from the sharply characterised Brewing Trouble to the darkly funny Little Fucker. The screening event will also allow us to share our ideas around scripted formats – something which we have done successfully in recent years – and shine a light on those new titles that we feel are particularly ripe for international adaptations.”
