Article Abstract:
Over 40 British producers and distributers will be represented at the NATPE '96 programme market in Las Vegas this year, an increase of approximately 200% on 1995 figures.

New markets are developing within the industry with the introduction of niche cable channels, featuring topics such as gardening and cookery. Children's television programmes are another growth area.
