Boer Soek 'n Vrou 16

Channel: kykNET (DStv 144)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Dating Game Show, Reality, Afrikaans

Boer Soek 'n Vrou 16

Boer Soek 'n Vrou returns for a 16th season with host Marciel Hopkins in her last season, who gets to watch true love blossom (hopefully) between the farmers and the participants.

The series is an international reality format following the fortunes of unmarried farmers participating in the show's campaign to find a partner for everyone.

The farmers were introduced on kykNET's website and as the season gets underway the entire process is laid out and the audience is invited to participate on the show's website.

The show once again travelled across the country to find free-spirited, lovelorn farmers, and to find out what it is they are looking for in a partner.

Now, Marciel is ready to help the Top 5 farmers (the five who received the most letters) to try and find the love of their lives, which is not unlikely - the series has already led to many weddings (and children!).

Million Dollar Wedding Planner

Channel: S3
TX Time: 22h00
Genre: Documentary

Million Dollar Wedding Planner

Lelian Chew is a wedding planner to the super-rich in the east Asia.

With Asia now home to more billionaires than the USA or Europe, this film goes inside a world of unimaginable wealth and luxury.

Lelian takes on just 10 weddings a year at an average cost of a million dollars.

For her clients, bespoke Cartier jewellery inspired by Meghan Markle, hundreds of thousands of dollars of flowers and multiple designer wedding dresses are nothing out of the ordinary.

But Lelian's job is also to navigate the clash between age-old Chinese marriage customs and the desires of the young and newly wealthy, often with outlandish solutions - multiple weddings are becoming the norm for the Chinese super-rich.

Travelling from Hong Kong to Singapore, Shanghai, Bali and Italy, Lelian opens the door to her normally closed and extremely discreet world.

Genre: Reality Competition

Survivor 39: Island of the Idols

This edition features two legendary winners, Boston Rob Mariano and Sandra Diaz-Twine, who return to the game to serve as mentors to a group of 20 new castaways.

Combined, Boston Rob and Sandra have played over 200 days of Survivor and plan to share their knowledge with the new castaways, but for the first time, they won't be competing for the money.

During the 39 days, some castaways will have the opportunity to visit the Island of the Idols to learn skills and strategy from these "idols."

Each player, selected to visit the special island in various ways throughout the season, will have to decide if they should put their knowledge to the test for a chance at a possible advantage in the game, or risk losing something very important in the process.

Those who can rise up to the challenge will possibly gain an advantage and continue their individual quest for $1- million and the title of Sole Survivor.

These new castaways will be forced to compete against each other with the same ultimate goal: to outwit, outplay and outlast each other, and in the end only one will remain to claim the title of Sole Survivor.

The show films in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji.

In the Season 39 premiere, "I Vote You Out and That's It": One castaway gets fired up when learning a lesson on the Island of the Idols, where Boston Rob and Sandra Diaz serve as mentors in an all-new twist.

Also, castaways question whether likability will prove to be a liability.
