Ubuthe Uzobuya

Ubuthe Uzobuya is a reality show that delves into the lives of couples torn apart when one partner abruptly disappears without explanation.

Hosted by actor Tshepo Maseko, the series explores the heart-wrenching stories of those who were once deeply in love, only to be left in uncertainty.

The focus of the show is on tracking down the missing partner to uncover their reasons for leaving, culminating in an emotional reunion with the partner who reached out to the show.

In the final segment, the person who vanished must confront their past and decide whether to return to their former life or embrace the new one they've built - perhaps even starting a new family.

Each episode promises to deliver powerful revelations and heartfelt moments.

In the series premiere, "Nomaindiya": Nomaindiya's rough temperament pushed Jwara to prolong his stay in Johannesburg.

She takes matters into her own hands as she embarks on a journey from the Eastern Cape to bring him home.

Long Way Home

Starring and executive produced by Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman, this 10-episode journey rekindles the duo's famed road-tripping spirit, bringing them a little closer to home this time.

Long Way Home follows Ewan and Charley as they ride refurbished vintage motorbikes from Ewan's home in Scotland to Charley's in England - but rather than take the shortest route, they go the long way.

They head across the North Sea to Scandinavia, all the way up to the Arctic Circle and then down to the Baltics and through continental Europe, before eventually hopping back over the English Channel two months later.

It's an adventure that will take them to more than 15 countries, through spectacular scenery and along some of the greatest driving roads in the world.

Along the way they'll immerse themselves in each country's culture, meet the locals and try their hand at unique and eclectic activities.

Up against a complete gut job, unprecedented construction challenges and high financial stakes, the Marrs will call on fellow renovation experts to help make their dream a reality.

In the series premiere, "In Over Their Heads": Dave and Jenny will begin demolition on the property with hopes of creating a one-of-a-kind bed and breakfast, but after encountering a massive bee infestation in the columns flanking the front of the house and uncovering some major construction issues, they realise that their dream may be coming with an enormous price tag.
