The Americans have been imagining killing their President (and the Russian one!) for decades and now it's our turn.
A plot to kill the President starts on SABC1 on Thursday night (31 October) in the new political thriller End Game.
You may remember
Zakeeya Patel mentioned that she's in it just after she won Strictly Come Dancing? She's playing a gym bunny.
So what's it about exactly? This from the official description ...
Beautiful, bright and bored, Khosi Hlatswayo is wife to the Minister of the Environment, Jet Hlatswayo … And she’s having a really horrible day. She’s uncovered an assassination plot targeting the President, her troubled teenage daughter is on a chase of her own, and has snuck out the house to try and seduce her mother’s lover - whose young enough to be her son, Khosi's strained marriage is pushed to the brink by the murder of her husband’s mistress, and everyone thinks she’s to blame.
Not only has she been framed for a high-profile crime, but whoever's behind it is plotting to make this day even worse for Khosi, and possibly the worst for all of South Africa. Khosi must uncover the plot, expose conspirators deep within the government. And the clock is ticking … It's gonna be one hell of a day!
Sounds fun I thought. A
very crap day.
Not the sort of day I'm in the mood for as I sit here sipping my vino telling you about the show. *hic*
Bubu Mazibuko stars as Khosi and
Hlomla Dandala stars as her philandering husband Jet.
It premieres at 20h30. For more about it and the cast, see:
