3rd Degree this Tuesday:
Episode Title: The Tricky Issue Of Race - Part 2
Broadcast date: 1 June 2010
Teaser ...As a nation we are deeply divided by our political past, but if there’s one thing that can cross that divide, it’s sport.
With the 2010 World Cup just days away, we look at how sport can be used as a nation building tool.
We talk to author John Carlin whose book on the 1995 Rugby World Cup was turned into the Clint Eastwood movie, “Invictus”. In it, former president Nelson Mandela manages to unite a deeply divided nation behind the Springbok rugby team.
And on a lighter note we look at the hype around the world cup and what the fans can look forward to, from Diski dancing puppets to open air television parks.
3rd Degree viewers can see Debora Patta trying her hand at Diski dancing.
3rd Degree is on e.tv on Tuesdays at 21h30.
