Entangled

Romantic comedy-drama series which revolves around the complications that arise when a bride-to-be in her 30s suddenly gets cold feet.

The show follows Sharon, an overachiever in her 30s who is on the verge of marrying the love of her life, Sizwe.

However, when her ex Julius suddenly resurfaces after many years, everything Sharon and Sizwe have built is threatened.

If your 20s are meant to be a time of fun and messy self-discovery, then your 30s are for nursing the hangover from some of those bad decisions.

At least that's the case for the characters in Entangled.

The show is more than about a love in danger – through the characters and storylines it explores the trials of life in our 30s.

These include navigating friendships, the concept of masculinity, culture clashes, sexual orientation, and the ever-pressing discussions of what modern day relationships look like through a humorous lens.

The series stars Phuti Khomo (The Wild, Egoli) as Sharon, Vuyo Ngcukana (The Queen, Unmarried) as Sizwe and Vuyo Dabula (Generations: The Legacy, Queen Sono) as Julius.

The supporting cast includes Pearl Modiadie as Andiswa, Senzo Radebe as Reggie, Mpho Popps as Zweli, Didie Makobane as Zenani and Tessa Twala as Tshepi.

Vikings: The Rise and Fall

Dispel the myths, meet the legends and witness the rise and fall of the greatest warriors in history...

National Geographic takes you on a televisual rollercoaster ride to uncover groundbreaking new Viking discoveries revealing who the Vikings really were.

For over 300 years the Vikings waged war from the seas with brutal effect.

But were they blood-thirsty plunderers or cunning political operatives?

In the series we witness the Vikings' first voyages beyond the Scandinavian coast, the sacking of York, and sieges of Paris, as we uncover the trade routes the Vikings developed as far east as Baghdad and West, to discover America.

We hear the myths, meet the legends and witness the rise and fall of the greatest warriors in history.

Throughout history, Vikings waged war from the seas, notoriously ruthless and with their own set of rules.

The Viking expansion was unprecedented in the veracity of its spread.

Known for merciless bloodshed, the Norsemen became the most feared people in history.

However, their story has always been told from a one-sided, Christian point of view and only now, after rigorous research through mythical sagas and bioarchaeological finds, can we uncover the truth about who the Vikings really were.

This fresh perspective on the Vikings is painstakingly pieced together by documentary producers with the help and onscreen input from 20 of the world's foremost Viking experts.

Throughout history, tales of the dreaded Vikings evoke images of slaughter and terror, wanton pillage and savage bloodletting, but beneath the infamy of sordid violence lies a fascinating true story.

The Vikings were fierce warriors, but they were also seasoned navigators, intrepid explorers, craftspeople, merchants, politicians and poets.

Between the years 700 and 1100, these Norse warriors conquered Britain and Ireland, laid siege to Paris, built complex trade networks as far east as Constantinople and Baghdad and were the first Europeans to set foot on the wild plains of America before fading into obscurity.

Tracing their rise and fall in this incredible new series involves an epic journey across the globe, starting with the 8th Century and a detailed look at who the Vikings were and why they first sailed beyond their own fair shores to raid monasteries up and down the coasts of Britain and Ireland.

In the series premiere, "The Road to Lindisfarne": An attack on a small religious community on the holy island of Lindisfarne in AD 793 heralded the start of the Viking Age of conquest and expansion.

But before this, we look at the Vikings' beginnings in Scandinavia.
