Hello through the darkness... we hope you can see this news... Openview's launching a new pop-up channel this Monday (23 January) titled Power-UP!
It's on 114 and it's a catch-up service for everyone who's missing their fave shows because of loadshedding.
It's running 18-hours a day in two hour loops so if you're without electricity for 10 to 12 hours a day, you'll hopefully be able to tune in at some point during the 18 hours.
Each 18-hour loop premieres at 06h00 and runs until midnight.
According to eMedia, the channel will also provide advertisers with a repeat screening of their ads to give them more bang for their bucks because of the impact of loadshedding on their primetime adverts.
Shows in the line-up are as follows:
>> Durban Gen, House of Zwide, Scandal! and Imbewu - Mondays to Fridays,
>> The Black Door - on weekends from 23h00 and,
>> The Afrikaans novelas (Daai Crazy Somer, #DisComplicated, Die Vertroueling etc.) will air as omnibuses at weekends.
