Prison drama which revolves around Zandile (Noxee Maqashalala), South Africa's most prolific female public prosecutor. She is a star, an inspiration and a proud, no-nonsense law enforcer who is rising up the ranks of the legal profession at light speed.

There's no knowing how high she'll go - until the day she is arrested for murder. Zandile goes from an officer of the law to a criminal.

Now Zandile finds herself arriving at the gates of the very prison where she has been sending the guilty to. And one question keeps going through her mind, over and over again: How did this happen? She is innocent... yet here she is.

Someone to Blame: The Ahmed Timol Inquest

Channel: SABC3
TX Time: 19h30
Genre: Documentary, History

Covers the 2017 inquest into the death of Ahmed Timol, the 29-year-old Roodepoort school teacher and political activist who was said to have committed suicide by jumping out of the 10th floor of the former John Vorster Square Police Station on 27 October, 1971.

The original inquest in 1972 returned a verdict that there was no living person responsible for his death, despite overwhelming evidence of gruesome torture. Loved ones did not believe Timol had jumped: they believed he was either tortured to death and then thrown from the window, or pushed.

Imtiaz Ahmed Cajee, Ahmed Timol's nephew, made it his personal quest to find those responsible for his beloved uncle's death.

The series turns a microscope onto unique weddings through a celebrity team of "experts" in various fields. Season 2 of the series returns with a cast that looks slightly different: two new "Bashers" with fresh perspectives join the fray as the team continues their search for the perfect South African wedding.

Season 2 welcome the return of wedding planner extraordinaire Zavion Kotze, and party professional Denise Zimba. They are joined this year by brand new "Bashers" Zola Nene - South African celebrity chef and author - and former Miss South Africa Bernelee Daniell.
