CBC Gem Outlines Its February "Exclusives"

The Corp. claims to have a large number of shows you won't see anywhere else - including season 4 of the U.K.-version of "Ghosts" and other series from overseas. 

One, celebrating Black History Month, may be of interest to some here who liked the Canada-Russia series and the Ballard docs. It's a look back at the life and accomplishments of Willie O'Ree, the first black player in the NHL and the incredible obstacles he faced. 

What's interesting about the line-up isn't that there's a lot of CanCon in it, but how much is from out of the country, including shows from Sweden, Ireland, Australia, and Ukraine. Some of these will undoubtedly turn up on the over-the-air network, while others will be restricted to web only. But it's expected they'll all be available for free.
