Season 2

Ashes to Ashes returns for a second season, set against the backdrop of a family-owned business in Tembisa, Namane Funerals.

The funeral parlour is headed by the husband and wife duo Mandlakazi and Selogile Namane, who inherited it from their parents. The pair have created an empire with the assistance of their children Tsietsi, Monwabisi and Reba Namane.

On the surface all looks well, but the Namane family is haunted by deep, dark secrets, which are constantly swept under the carpet to keep the family intact.

A series of scandalous dramatic moments led to the truth about the father of Mpho's baby being revealed.  Shocking events continue to follow the Namane family in the second season, threatening the future of the funeral parlour and the Namane family as we know it.

Season 2 returns with new characters and more grim secrets that will further shatter the family unit. After the Season 1 finale it remains to be seen who survived the terrible shootout rampage by the deranged Tsietsi Namane.

Meanwhile love, support, and unity are put to the test when Selo makes a life changing decision which results in regret and despise.

New to the cast in Season 2 are Tina Jaxa as Nokulunga Radebe, Mandlakazi's estranged and feisty cousin; Atandwa Kani as Buzwe Sihlahla, Tsietsi's no nonsense lawyer; and Nandi Nyembe as Detective Nkonzo's mother, Ma Nkonzo, who has a score to settle with the Namanes.

Returning cast this season include Patrick Shai as Selo, Nambitha Mpumlwana as Mandlakazi, Zenande Mfenyana as Reba, Menzi Ngubane as Detective Nkonzo, Nyaniso Dzedze as Tsietsi, Chumani Pan as Monwabisi, Nyalleng Thibedi as Mpho, Craig Urbani as Mickey, Maggie Benedict as Violet, Mandla Gaduka as Damian and Richard Lukunku as Stitch.

For Season 2, the creative producer is Genna Lewis and the head writer is Linda Bere. The series producer is Helen Smit and the executive producers are Clive Morris, Sipho Gogotya, Genna Lewis and Ntokozo Mbuli for Clive Morris Productions. The executive producer for e.tv is Bobo Mokgoro. Original music is by Alan Lazar.
