There's a flurry of activity on kykNET & Kie from July with the introduction of a new primetime schedule to accommodate the two previously announced telenovelas.
Word from the channel is that the schedule shake-up is part of a bigger overhaul that's going to feature new local shows later in the year.
First up to know: the Afrikaans-dubbed Turkish telenovelas that we told you about
here now have timeslots.
In die Ysterhand se Greep will air Mondays to Thursdays at 17h30 and Kind van die Noodlot airs Mondays to Thursdays at 20h00.
Both have a Saturday Omnibus at these times:
In die Ysterhand se Greep: 10h00 to 14h00
Kind van die Noodlot: 14h00 to 18h00
