Five aspiring presenters landed themselves full-time presenting gigs on Thursday night (2 August) in the finale of SABC3's 2018 Presenter Search.

We were expecting 3 winners but 5 got lucky when the search did a switcheroo on the usual format.

Three will be joining Top Billing and one will join Expresso and Afternoon Express respectively.

The competiton came down to 6 finalists in the end so there was only one who was left out with a cold shiver: 27-year-old actress Mosa Kaiser, who received a consolation prize.

She'll be joining Expresso as a roving field reporter so she'll be popping up at various times during the live show.

As for the 5 permanent fixtures... this is what they have to say about what they're bringing to the table, with Mosa rounding things off:

Fezile Mkhize



New presenter on: Top Billing

I am like the power bank for the people and I don’t take that responsibility lightly.”
