Irish television personality Baz Ashmawy is reportedly set to make €5 million after his Sky One show 50 Ways To Kill Your Mammy was picked up by a range of global networks.
The programme, which sees the presenter bring mother Nancy on a series of thrilling adventures, was a massive hit when it aired in August and it will now be aired in over 100 countries.
"I've been around the block before and I'm enjoying what I'm doing with Sky - I love the way they make telly and they've been very receptive and creatively supportive. The key is not to be saturated and keep focused on what you want to make,” Ashmawy told The Daily Mail.
"It's easy to say that, until you need money and think, 'Alright I'll do this,' and next thing you know you are working on a daytime show talking to someone about potted plants. I'm so happy it sold well because we're all very proud of it. I think 2014 was for me a long-time coming, but it was a brilliant and a really productive year."
Talks are understood to be underway on a second series of the show, with the 39-year-old currently fronting another Sky One show The Fanatics.
