2021 Royalty Soapie Awards: all the winners

Nominees Jack Devnarain and Nthati Moshesh, selfied by Jack.

The 5th Royalty Soapie awards were held at the Radisson Hotel and Convention Centre in Joziburg on Saturday night (18 September) and featured an audience of nominees and guests who walked the red carpet like in the days of old.

The ceremony and red carpet were recorded for TV but only air on SABC1 on Saturday 2 October at 19h30 - when they should have aired live. 

It's ridiculous to have a delay on a local awards ceremony like this. It takes the spontaneity and pizzazz out of it and creates a disjointed situation when it comes to media coverage and the socialz.

If you'd prefer not knowing who won before watching, please don't read on.

If you're okay with it and feel you're in a place to handle the consequences, this is what transpired...

DiepCity, which received the most number of nominations, took the most number of wins with a total of seven, followed by The Estate with three.

Also missing: Legacy, Die Sentrum, Durban Gen and Lingashoni.

Oh wow, I look forward to the awards: I'm particularly happy for the Diep City, Skeem Saam, Lusanda Mbane and Melusi and Gladys wins laugh
I'm not too sure about wins for the villian roles though 
Maybe I should start watching The Estate.....
