Channel: HISTORY (DStv 186)
TX Time: 21h10
Genre: Reality Competition

Knife or Death is a new competition series featuring the most experienced blade-smiths, martial artists and knife experts as they slice, stab and chop their way through a blade-shattering gauntlet for a chance at winning a cash grand prize.

In every episode, competitors take a timed run through an obstacle course unlike anything else on television, which tests the strength, sharpness and craftsmanship of their blades, along with their skills at wielding them.

Only the two competitors with the fastest times gain entry to the final round each week, the dreaded Dead Run.
 

Picnic at Hanging Rock

Genre: Mystery, Period Drama

A reimagining of Joan Lindsay's iconic Australian novel that delves into the mysterious disappearances of three schoolgirls and their governess on Valentine's Day, 1900.

In the final decade of the 19th century, mysterious widow Hester Appleyard arrives in Australia, haunted by a secret past, and establishes a successful school for young ladies.

Six years later, on Valentine's Day 1900, she allows her pupils to picnic at Hanging Rock. And there, in the strange, brooding landscape, something unthinkable happens.

Channel: BBC Earth (DStv 184)
TX Time: 20h30
Genre: Reality

The series that lifts the lid on the drama of life in the playground is back, offering insight into the ups, downs, tantrums and triumphs which unfold when a class of children meet each other for the first time.

Throughout this series, we see how 4 year olds experience happiness and sadness, before gaining an understanding into the world of playground friendships, romances and rivalries.
 

Crazy Love

Channel: Lifetime (DStv 131)
TX Time: 20h55
Genre: True Crime

These are stories of people whose love makes them feel exempt from the moral code that governs the rest of us.

It always starts with passion - these are couples who do things in love's name and under love's spell that they might never conceive of doing under normal circumstances.

High school lovers who kill the girl that threatens to come between them. A lawyer who goes on the run with her bad boy client after springing him from jail. The intense couple whose love blossomed in the wake of a tornado and whose multi-state crime spree was nothing short of Bonnie and Clyde.

On the Other Side of the Wall

Channel: Telemundo (DStv 118)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Telenovela

The story follows the lives of two women, one of humble origin and the other a prominent figure, who cross the border from Mexico to the United States for different reasons: one chasing a dream and the other fleeing a nightmare.

In this contemporary series, which reflects the reality of many emigrants, both women will have to do the impossible to move their children forward and survive, leaving behind everything they knew until then

These are the stories of good people who did not choose their destiny of living on the other side of the wall.
