Genius Factory

Channel: eExtra (OpenView HD 105 / DStv 195)
TX Time: 17h00
Genre: Documentary

In 1980, Robert Graham, a 73-year-old eccentric millionaire got the idea to create a Nobel Prize-winning sperm bank. He was labelled a sexist, a racist, an elitist, a eugenicist, a white supremacist and a Nazi.

Nevertheless, the "Genius Factory" ran for 20 years and produced over 200 children. Graham died before he got to see if the experiment worked.

In this documentary, we track the children 30 years later, to find out if they're geniuses, and answer the age-old question of nature vs. nurture, to find out if you're a product of your genes or your environment.

The Voice Kids 2017

Channel: ITV Choice (DStv 123)
TX Time: 18h00
Genre: Reality Competition, Music

The Voice Kids is the junior version of The Voice UK, with the age limit being 7–14 years old. There are four stages: Blind Auditions, Battle Rounds, Semi-Final and the Live Final.

The coaches - will.i.am, Danny Jones and Pixie Lott - search to uncover the best junior talent Britain has to offer. This season will be followed by the 2018 season, within a couple of weeks of UK broadcast.

Murder Made Me Famous 3

Channel: CBS Reality (DStv 132)
TX Time: 20h20
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series

Murder Made Me Famous examines killers who gained public notoriety when their crimes whipped up a media frenzy. The unnerving psychology behind murder has long been source material for television, books and movies, but why do certain killers capture the attention of millions?

Each episode presents dramatic recreations of well-known crimes using archival material and commentary from those connected to the case to help unravel the twisted personalities that were thrust into the spotlight.

Featured commentator for every episode is author and crime reporter, Steve Helling, who has covered several high-profile crime stories including the Natalee Holloway and Laci Peterson disappearances.
