Channel: Curiosity Channel (DStv 185)
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Documentary Series, Science, Nature

To survive Mars, our species will need to evolve how we eat, drink, and build our homes.

Will we need our genes to evolve as well?

First Steps to Mars

Humans seem to be on the cusp of reaching Mars, but how did we get to this point?

Our journey to our neighbouring planet traces a path connecting Nikola Tesla, Nazi weapons of war, a Cold War space race, and a string of blockbuster discoveries made by some of NASA's most talented robots.

Surviving Mars

Science may soon make the dream of traveling to Mars a reality, but how will we live once we get there?

How will we manage our basic human needs of food, water and shelter on a planet known for its barren surface conditions, high radiation levels and toxic dirt?

First Martians

Evolutionary biologist Dr. Scott Solomon foresees a series of changes to our species from the size of our hearts and heads to the pigments in our skin.

The Trials of Winnie Mandela

Channel: SABC1
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Documentary Series

The Trials of Winnie Mandela

The Trials of Winnie Mandela is a provocative examination of an icon, a politician, a grandmother, and a human being.

A deeply personal story that compels her granddaughters - and audiences - to grapple with their own understanding of human frailty, unconditional love and the human capacity for good and evil.

This seven-part documentary series is structured around a lunchtime conversation between Winnie Madikizela-Mandela and her two granddaughters.

The interactions are frank, heartfelt, they are emotional and uncomfortable.

Most of all, they provide unique insight into the complexity of a woman who lived an extraordinary life.

Unparalleled access to Winnie Mandela, exclusive interviews with family, friends, commentators, victims and activists and rare archive footage captures Winnie's life story in detail never attempted before.

Swati and Zazi are drawn into a dark, unfamiliar world of anarchy, police brutality, betrayal, necklacing, spies and political compromise with their grandmother placed centrally in the mix.

Immersed in this shadowy and frightening world, the sisters are unwavering in their determination to find the truth - often to Winnie's chagrin.

They ask questions to which they might not want to hear the answers.

There has been an unfortunate tendency in public life to silence complex discussions about Winnie Madikizela-Mandela's iconic life.

More especially since she died in 2018, when the prevailing narratives insisted solely on the "feminist heroine" and refuse the probing of a fallen idol.

Yet the voices of her victims still cry out; if we cannot hold her accountable for her own legacy, we have no right to hold anyone accountable for their actions today.

In the series premiere: Winnie Mandela has died.

One of South Africa's most controversial struggle icons and former wife of South African president Nelson Mandela.

Her death is fraught with controversy. Is she a saint? Is she a sinner?

Over a leisurely Sunday lunch with Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, her granddaughters Swati and Zazi begin their quest to find out more about their grandmother's life.

When Winnie arrives in Johannesburg in 1952, she is firmly rooted in a radical black consciousness politics learnt from her father and grandmother.

This is contrary to the belief that she was a naïve country girl politicized by her husband to be Nelson Mandela.

When Nelson Mandela is incarcerated for life in 1964, Winnie becomes the face of the anti-Apartheid struggle and consequently a target of the notorious Apartheid security police for the next 30 years.

She is detained, tortured, banned and finally banished after her involvement in the 1976 student uprising.

Her bravery and resilience have captured the imagination of the world.

But the relentless abuse and torture by the Apartheid security forces over the years begins to harden her.

The sisters discover that their grandmother is prepared to kill for her ideals.
 

Koala Man

Channel: Disney+
TX Time: 00h01
Genre: Animation, Comedy

Koala Man

Koala Man follows middle-aged dad Kevin and his titular not-so-secret identity, whose only superpower is a burning passion for following rules and snuffing out petty crime in the town of Dapto.

Though it may seem like any other Australian suburb, forces of evil both cosmic and man-made lie in wait to pounce on unsuspecting Daptonians.

On a quest to clean up his hometown, and often roping his frustrated family into his adventures, Koala Man stands at the ready.

He'll do whatever it takes to defeat villainous masterminds, supernatural horrors, or worse: jerks who don't take their rubbish bins down on the proper days.

The series features the voices of Michael Cusack, Hugh Jackman, Sarah Snook, Hugo Weaving, Miranda Otto and more.
 

Life in Colour with David Attenborough

Channel: BBC Earth (DStv 184)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Wildlife, Nature, Documentary Series

Life in Colour with David Attenborough

David Attenborough travels the world from the rainforests of Costa Rica to the snowy Scottish Highlands to reveal the extraordinary and never-before-seen ways animals use colour.

The natural world is full of colours. For us, they are a source of beauty, but for animals they are a tool for survival.

David Attenborough reveals the extraordinary ways in which animals use colour: to win a mate, to fight off rivals and to warn enemies.

In India, peacocks dazzle females with magnificent tail feathers; a tiny hummingbird in the deserts of North America unfurls his spectacular headdress as he dances for a mate; and in the darkness of a rainforest, powerful mandrill baboons signal their status with red and blue face masks, while tiny frogs warn of deadly poisons with brilliant colours.

New camera technologies - some developed especially for this series – also allow us to see colours and patterns usually invisible to human eyes.

Ultraviolet cameras reveal bright signals on a butterfly's wings and facial markings on yellow damselfish that are used as secret communication channels.

Some animals can also detect polarised light, and specialist cameras can now show us how fiddler crabs see the world, and how mantis shrimp have strange polarisation patterns on their bodies to signal to a mate or rival.

Each challenge centres on fabricating a component of the overall weapon.

The winner leaves with $10,000 cash and the coveted title of Forged in Fire Champion.
