										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-family: Calibri;">kykNET se Plaasjapie beloof &#8216;n Groot Oes met Groot Pryse! </span></b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><a href="https://kyknet.dstv.com/program/plaasjapie" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11527 size-medium" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Plaasjapie-Skryf-in-300x266.png" alt="" width="300" height="266" /></a></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Kan jy vir  een maand op ‘n plaas oorleef? Skryf in vir kykNET se nuwe realiteitsprogram, <i>Plaasjapie</i>, en bewys dat jy ‘n boer is wat ‘n plan kan maak. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><i>Plaasjapie</i> is kykNET se splinternuwe realiteitsreeks wat deelnemers die geleentheid gee om te wys of hulle die deursettingsvermoë het om op ‘n plaas te oorleef. 20 stads- of dorpmense (wat geen plaas- en boer ervaring het nie) word weggevoer na ŉ plaas om vir ŉ maand in ŉ skuur te leef en werk. So as jy dink jy kan harde bene kou, maar ook uithouvermoë het en slim genoeg is, dan is Plaasjapie vir jou. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">As jy dink dat dit kinderspeletjies is om op ‘n plaas te woon en werk, dink weer, want met <i>Plaasjapie</i> gaan jy met die basiese elemente op ‘n plaas moet oorleef – dit beteken geen van die luukshede wat op vandag se moderne plase te vind is nie. Diegene wat hul spanmaats uitoorlê in die uitdagings sal die geleentheid kry om sekere luukshede vir hulself te wen, maar die res sal maar moet voel hoe dit was om op ‘n plaas van jare gelede te woon. </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><i>Plaasjapie </i>gaan nie net oor oorlewing en fisiese werk op ‘n plaas nie – allesbehalwe. Dit gaan oor strategie, deursettingsvermoë en slimmer wees as die res van die deelnemers. En planne beraam, want dis tog wat ‘n boer doen. Sommige van die uitdagings vind plaas in spanne, en ander is individuele uitdagings. En, daar mag dalk ‘n gekonkel agter jou rug wees, wat jy tot jou voordeel kan gebruik, of wat jou moontlik jou kaartjie huis toe gaan kos. So, maak seker jy weet wie jou ware vriende is en wie is wolf in skaapklere&#8230; </span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">So, as jy kans sien vir die uitdaging van woon en werk op ‘n plaas, slim alliansies kan vorm, strategieë kan uitwerk, ‘n plan soos ‘n boer kan maak, en, belangrikste van alles, ‘n maand sonder die luukshede waaraan dorps – en stadsjapies gewoond is, maak seker jy skryf voor 15 Februarie 2020 by kykNET.tv in. Nie net staan jy die kans om as kykNET se eerste <i>Plaasjapie</i> aangewys te word nie, maar daar is groot pryse op die spel.  </span></p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Enter NOW to outwit, outplay and outlast the Survivor SA, Season 8. </strong></p>
<p><a href="https://youtu.be/Rwx4L9-lzKE">https://youtu.be/Rwx4L9-lzKE</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Survivor SA</em> fans finally received the news that they have been waiting for since nifty player Rob Bentele nabbed the title of Sole Survivor at the end of season 7’s live finale. M-Net confirmed that <em>Survivor South Africa</em> will return for an eighth season in 2020 and that entries have officially opened. Those who think they have the savvy and skills to outwit, outplay and outlast the competition on a desolate exotic island – and maybe even raise the bar of shrewdness set by the previous season’s players – have until Monday 20 January at midnight to enter.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://m-net.dstv.com/show/survivor-south-africa" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"><img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11523 size-medium" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Survivor-SA-Enter-Here-300x265.png" alt="" width="300" height="265" /></a>To be eligible to put your name forward as the show’s potential next Sole Survivor, you have to be 18 years or older by 20 January 2020. You also have to be a South African citizen or have a permanent residence status and need to make sure that your passport is valid until August 2020.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This season, there is also only one way to enter<em> Survivor South Africa</em> – via the online entry form on the M-Net website. Once you have logged, you will go through a quick and easy online audition process. First, you will be asked to fill in a short application form with a few personal questions and thereafter you have to submit a three-minute video, showcasing your game plan and why the <em>Survivor SA</em> team should pick you. If your online application is successful, you will be contacted by the <em>Survivor SA</em> team for a call-back, and who knows, you could be part of the next season’s castaways.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">But who should consider entering this time around? Executive Producer Handrie Basson from Afrokaans – who produces the show for M-Net – has the answer: “If you love watching <em>Survivor</em>, if you have shouted at the TV in frustration and admiration and if you have said ‘I can do this!’ or if you have thought ‘I will never do that!’… then it’s time to get off the couch and onto the island!”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The newest season of <em>Survivor SA</em> will see the return of veteran host Nico Panagio and will be on M-Net 101 in the second half of 2020.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Is it Too Soon To Tell?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This season of M-Net&#8217;s Survivor, is now entering it&#8217;s final stages, with the bench of jurors, looking more intimidating than the few outcasts still remaining in the game.  But is it too soon to tell who the ultimate Survivor will be? And the answer is without a doubt yes, because, with Survivor, you never know, until you know.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In another episode, where Rob once again proclaimed his statue as the alpha male of this season, it was unfortunately Mike, who got the boot in this week&#8217;s episode, leaving with a bag full of strategies, for maybe a next time.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our friends at M-Net had a chat with him, and here are his answers.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-1.png"><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-11215" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-1-298x300.png" alt="" width="298" height="300" /></a>How do you feel about leaving in the home stretch of the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Whilst there&#8217;s a sense of loss in leaving the game, I feel a sense of validation in leaving the game. I lasted 35 days, and was a serious contender throughout. I planned meticulously, and would rather leave after taking a shot, than meander aimlessly to the end.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Tribal council was explosive. How did you feel when you found out you were the target?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I was initially shocked by the revelation, as I believed that my plan was more beneficial to Durao and Nicole than working with Rob, as I felt that we had a better chance at beating each other than against Rob. However, I soon felt strangely serene about being named the target, as there was no turning back from it.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-3.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-11218 alignleft" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-3-269x300.png" alt="" width="269" height="300" /></a>You often wanted to make a big move. Why do you think it never came to pass?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I hoped to subvert the dominance of the Sa&#8217;ula alliance, and was not able to achieve this because the allies I relied on felt an unprecedented loyalty toward Rob.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What was your strategy?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I planned to lay low, and be cool. I hoped to find myself in the middle of intersecting alliances, and imagined that it would take a precise realization of my plans to seize dominance in the end. I ignored many of my most basic impulses to deflect attention from myself, including my physical and intellectual aptitudes, and tried to use more vocal players to carry out my plans by instigating plans well in advance.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Where do you think it all went wrong for you?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">By relying on Durao and Nicole, my cover was blown. However, I can&#8217;t think of a better set of options, because we consistently lacked the numerical requirements to upset the apple cart.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-4.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-11217" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-4-222x300.png" alt="" width="222" height="300" /></a>What was your highlight in the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Building a strong set of relationships at Laumei kept me safe until Ta&#8217;alo, where I managed to survive a tribe swap with no allies. I also played an instrumental role in causing the eventual removals of Rocco, Cobus and Seipei, who were all great players.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What was your lowest moment?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Having to vote for Geoff was horrible, and the morning after losing my great friend Mmaba was horrific.</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Did you learn anything during your experience?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I learned that I am capable of enduring great discomfort, and that my everyday concerns are far less consequential than I imagined them to be. I feel far closer to understanding myself, and reject the prior obsession I had with materialism.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How much weight did you lose during your time on the Island?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Around 15KG.</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-2.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-11214 alignleft" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Mike-Survivor-2-212x300.png" alt="" width="212" height="300" /></a>You won Immunity quite a few times after merge. What did that feel like?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I didn&#8217;t care much for challenges, as I felt they were a distraction from the social aspect of the game, which is the most important in my mind. However, I desperately needed to win in the last vote, and it enabled me to see my dad, which was fantastic.</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What will you be looking for when casting your vote for the sole survivor?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I would like to vote for someone who has been a strong custodian for the season, and someone who had consistently played a consequential game.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How do you feel about reuniting with your former alliance Geoff and Mmaba on the jury?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I believed Geoff and Mmaba might have loathed me for Geoff&#8217;s exit, but seeing them has reminded me that the most important win of the season is the bond we have built.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The game continues, with five survivors still in the game.  Who will get voted out next…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Survivor South Africa: Island of Secrets </em>is screened on M-Net every Thursday at 19:00. It will also be available on DStv CatchUp.

<p style="text-align: justify;">In this episode of M-Net&#8217;s Survivor: Islands of Secrets, saw Mike winning his first individual immunity, maybe worth more than what we think.  Steffi also claimed her 5th visit to the Islands of Secrets, with a very special Family Surprise.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After Jacques took his time looking for an hidden immunity idol re-introduced into the game, it was Leatitia who snatched it up, preparing the table for another game changer. At the end, it was Jacques, who smiled at host Nico, when he received his fate, leaving the tribal council area with the words, &#8220;No Regrets.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our friends at M-Net asked Jacques some questions after becoming the next member of the jury, and here is what he answered:</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-1.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11184" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-1-265x300.png" alt="" width="284" height="321" /></a> How do you feel about leaving in the home stretch of the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I knew they were gunning for me four weeks in a row. So my exit wasn&#8217;t a surprise when it happened. I&#8217;m grateful I could postpone it so long and force the majority alliance to turn on itself a lot earlier than it intended</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What do you think contributed to the Tribe wanting you out? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Just like Dante, I saw through their agenda of how they kept players in the game who they knew they could manipulate. Thus they tried to silence the voice of reason and vote me out.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-11186" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-2-250x300.png" alt="" width="267" height="321" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What was your highlight in the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So many! Solving the first 3D puzzle with Ting-Ting and knowing I won&#8217;t be the first one going home. Visiting that beautiful Samoan waterfall with Dante and Mike. Surviving with an Idol and stretching it for three weeks really grinded the remaining player&#8217;s gears. Loved the fight to the bitter end!</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What was your lowest moment?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ostracized for using a swear word.  The night of the Ting-Ting vote is a close second.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Did you learn anything during your experience?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the game of Survivor, the Social game trumps the strategic and physical game.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How much weight did you lose during your time on the Island?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I lost 8kg&#8217;s! That&#8217;s insane for a dude who barely breaks into the 60kg category.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-3.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11185" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-3-236x300.png" alt="" width="253" height="321" /></a>Which challenge was a highlight for you and why? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The first 3D puzzle I solved with Ting-Ting Was also insane that Durāo and I won doughnuts, going up against colossal physical beasts like Rocco, Rob, Steffi and Cobus.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Did you play the game you wanted to play? What was your strategy? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I 100% played the game. From day one I wanted to play Survivor and not be a passive zero-vote finalist. I truly lived my dream.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Where do you think it all went wrong for you? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My closest allies were all seen as massive threats (Seipei and Cobus). When they were taken out I had extremely little wiggle room to play the game.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>You made some pretty bold moves in the game. Do you think that contributed to your exit? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Definitely. Some of my moves were great and some were terrible. However the people running the show were targeting the people they couldn&#8217;t control. As such, big move players such as myself, Seipei, Meryl and Cobus were targeted early in the Merge.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-4.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-11191 alignleft" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Jacques-Survivor-4-265x300.png" alt="" width="265" height="300" /></a>You are the one castaway that had the most advantages. Do you think they helped you prolong your stay? </strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It depends. I could have had zero advantages and still be in the game but everybody would view me as a passenger. I went out there to play the game and enjoy it. Having a bag of tricks was part of my journey and make for some great souvenirs now!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How do you feel about joining the jury?</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The jury are literally all my favourite people in the game. I can&#8217;t wait to sit down and have drinks with them and enjoy our last week in Samoa.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What will you be looking for when casting your vote for the sole survivor?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;ll base my vote on someone who can own their game and who made moves. If you were a troop soldier in someone else&#8217;s army, you can keep marching into the Zero-Vote-Finalist brigade.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The game continues, with six survivors still in the game.  Who will get voted out next…</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Survivor SA&#8217;s Mmaba answer some Questions&#8230; </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In most probably the most heated episode of M-Net&#8217;s Survivor SA: Islands of Secrets, it was surely up to the last vote, to decide which castaway the tribed voted off.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the end, after a tribal council where Jacques and Nicole had immunity, it was Mmaba who left the game, becoming yet another castaway to get the boot, with an immunity idol in her bag.  Mmaba made the Top 8, but will now serve as the next member of this reality show&#8217;s jury.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Our friends at M-Net caught up with this Survivor after the show, and here are some of the Questions asked, and answers given.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-1.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-11143" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-1-273x300.png" alt="" width="250" height="275" /></a>How do you feel about leaving in the home stretch of the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I can’t even explain how I am feeling; I am so emotional. It’s almost as though I could smell the win and the smell suddenly turned into a really bad rotten egg smell. I’m gutted and really disappointed at myself.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What do you think contributed to your blindside?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I think I’ve been an easy target throughout the game but winning the advantage at the Island of Secrets was the nail in the coffin.</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>You left with an Idol in your pocket. Did you trust your alliance that much?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I think it was more the paranoia than it was trusting the alliance. My gut feel throughout that day was telling me to play my Hidden Immunity Idol but for some reason in a split second I decided otherwise. My head was just all over the place.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What was your highlight in the game?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I’ve had so many highlights in the game that it’s really hard to pick one. But my best of them all would have to be my friendship with Geoffrey and Mike. I honestly didn’t think I would make such great and true connections in the game and that was a great surprise and definitely my highlight.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>W<a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-3.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-11148 alignleft" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-3-300x300.png" alt="" width="238" height="239" /></a>hat was your lowest moment?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My last tribal council was definitely my lowest, especially because I could have saved myself from being blindsided but I ignored that sm</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">all voice inside of me. I think I will regret that for a while and will find it hard to forgive myself and move on from it.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Did you learn anything during your experience?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I learnt the importance of trusting my instincts/intuition because it’s there to serve and protect me. But I also learnt of the strength I have within me, strength that I didn’t even know I possessed. The game of survivor is tough, you go through everything while you’re on the island and to have made it to merge and then the top 8 has been the greatest accomplishment for me.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How much weight did you lose during your time on the Island?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I lost a whole 7kg! I never weighted below 60kgs since my teens!</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The challenges seemed quite tough. Which one was the toughest for you?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s so weird because I loved the challenges and looked forward to them, but for some reason they didn’t love me back, every single one of them! But the toughest one has to be the one where we had to hold our breath, attached to a bar and suspended in water trying to survive the tide.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-2.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-11144" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Mmaba-Survivor-2-300x262.png" alt="" width="300" height="262" /></a>You won a challenge against Steffi on the Island of Secrets. How did that make you feel?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When I saw that challenge, I knew it was mine to win! I wasn’t even playing against Steffi at that point, it was Mmaba against Mmaba and I had to win.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How do you feel about joining the jury?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s such a strange feeling because I am still part of the game but also I’m not really part of it. I still need to make this really big important decision to vote for the sole survivor, so being part of the jury is such a huge responsibility.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>What will you be looking for when casting your vote for the sole survivor?</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I’m looking for a player that is playing the game in its fullness, not just the physical part of the game but also the social part. A player who will be able to defend their game play and take ownership of their big moves.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>How do you feel about reuniting with Geoff on the jury?</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>It’s obviously sad that I’m reuniting with Geoff this way because I’ve just been voted out the game but could not be more happy seeing him and catching up with him on all the jury gossip!</p></blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">The game continues, with seven survivors still in the game.  Who will get blindsided next&#8230;</p>

Set in the beautiful Samoa, and spiced with all kinds of never-seen-before curveballs, twists and turns, <em>Survivor SA: Island of Secrets </em>will hit our screens on Thursday, 16 May.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While M-Net and Production Company Afrokaans remain tight-lipped about what exactly this mysterious <em>Island of Secrets</em> will reveal, they have lifted the lid a little on the castaways. This season, a diverse group of 21 strong-willed individuals who believe they know the ins and outs of the greatest game on earth will be facing the harsh elements of Mother Nature – and even harsher mind games of their tenacious opponents, who all want to be the Ultimate Survivor.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Soon, South Africa will get an unusual first glimpse of these contenders. Eight of the castaways from<em> Survivor SA: Island of Secrets</em> are already featuring on a variety of advertising billboards throughout the country.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">M-Net handpicked fascinating, multi-faceted personalities from a variety of professions and age groups who are not all they seem to be on the surface. It&#8217;s going to be a social experiment of note to observe how they manoeuvre through the conflicts that are bound to arise.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The castaways on the billboards will be confirmed shortly, while the rest will be revealed closer to the first episode.</p>

Die reeks handel oor ’n middeljarige hotelbestuurder, Ferdie Kruger, en sy kleindorpie-personeel wat spartel om dié substandaard-hotel se deure oop te hou.</p>
<p>Hulle gaan dalk nie in die geskiedenis afgaan as die beste personeelgroep nie. Dalk ook nie as die flukste of hulpvaardigste nie. Maar dié kleindorpie-personeel van Fransenburg het om ander redes in ons harte ingekruip.</p>
<p>Ferdie en kie maak vir ’n derde keer ’n draai in ons sitkamers, en wie beter om reg aan die aweregse karakters te laat geskied as draaiboekskrywers Bennie Fourie, Stiaan Smith, Ryan Metcalfe en Beer Adriaanse.</p>
<p>Die seisoen het ook heelwat onverwagte kinkels. So, verwag die onverwagse – want soos julle nou al goed weet, loop niks volgens plan in die Fransen Hotel nie.</p>
<p>Die hotel word in episode 1 geruk wanneer meneer Van As opdaag om die plek self te bestuur. Hy is onmoontlik om voor te werk en die personeel beraam &#8216;n plan om van hom ontslae te raak.</p>
<p>Kyk Hotel 3, vanaf Januarie 2019 op kykNET DStv-kanaal 144</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Bolhuis: Onder die vergrootglas.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Bolhuis.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-8995" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Bolhuis-300x264.png" alt="Mike Bolhuis" width="300" height="264" /></a>Spesialis-ondersoeker Mike Bolhuis, die man wat wetsoortreders se broeke laat bewe, is vanaf Oktober op kykNET in die misdaadsreeks, <em>Bolhuis</em>, te sien.</p>
<p>Mike, wat beskou word as een van Suid-Afrika se top ondersoekers, was al betrokke by van die land se grootste moord- en bedrogsake. In dié reeks delf ons dieper in van die sake wat al op sy lessenaar beland het, soos die Delmas-moorde, waarin die vyf maande-oue Wiehan Botes en sy oppasser, vermoor is en waarvan die moordenaar steeds op vrye voet is.</p>
<p>Ander onderwerpe wat ondersoek gaan word, sluit die volgende in:</p>
<p><strong>Dwelmmuile:</strong></p>
<p>Desperate lede van die publiek word oortuig om dwelms in of uit die land uit te smokkel net om uiteindelik gevonnis te word tot lang tronkstrawwe of selfs die galg oorsee. Ons ondersoek hierdie misdryf verder en gesels met dwelmmuile se families wat steeds probeer lewe in hoop.</p>
<p><strong>Wurban:</strong></p>
<p>Willie Steenkamp was ‘n finansiële konsultant en die hoof van ‘n internasionale beleggingsmaatskappy genaamd Wurban wat beleggers fabelagtige winste belowe het. Uiteindelik egter het miljoene rande en Willie spoorloos verdwyn. Mike het gou Willie se ware kleure agtergekom.</p>
<p><strong>Ralph Haynes:</strong></p>
<p>Ralph Haynes, die man wat bekend was as die “Godfather van die Wes Rand”, verdwyn spoorloos in 2011 nadat hy opstyg in ‘n helikopter vanaf Kitty Hawk lughawe. Maar hoekom was Ralph so berug en wat presies het van hom geword? Mike soek steeds voort na hierdie man wat hy maar al te goed geken het.</p>
<p><strong>Die Knysna moorde: </strong></p>
<p>Gedurende ‘n besonderde bloedige paar maande in die pragtige dorpie Knysna, verloor drie mense hulle lewens in wat lyk soos die werk van ‘n reeksmoordenaar. Uiteindelik word ‘n plaaslike platejoggie gearresteer maar sit die verkeerde persoon agter tralies? Mike besoek weer Knysna saam met ‘n joernalis wat destyds die storie gedek het.</p>
<p><strong>Selfmoord:</strong></p>
<p>Wanneer besluit ‘n persoon om hulle eie lewe te neem en wanneer probeer ‘n moordenaar dit laat lyk soos ‘n selfmoord? Mike kry gereeld hierdie tipe sake. Ons gesels met familielede wat agterbly met meer vrae as anrwoorde. Ook gesels ‘n oorlewende van ‘n poging tot selfmoord met ons.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Rian van Heerden, die vervaardiger van <em>Bolhuis</em>, meen dat die reeks nie net baie interessant gaan wees nie, maar dat kykers diep geraak gaan word. “Mike het ons vrye toegang tot sy organisasie, sy sake en sy lewe gegee ten einde hierdie reeks te vervaardig. Tydens die 13 episodes sal jy ware verhale van misdade beleef wat jou nie onaangeraak sal laat nie. Net soos jy uiteindelik nie sonder ‘n sterk opinie van Mike sal wees nie.”</p>
<p>Mike meen hy wil vir kykers wys wat die realiteit in Suid-Afrika is en verskuilde kwessies na vore bring.</p>
<p>Nog nooit vantevore is daar so diep in die psige van ‘n ondersoeker soos met <em>Bolhuis</em> nie gedelf. Die harde feite, in die woorde van Mike Bolhuis.</p>
<p><em>Bolhuis</em> word vanaf Oktober op kykNET DStv Kanaal 144 uitgesaai.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Nuwe kykNet drama maak nuwe Spore op Dinsdae.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Spoorloos-2.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-9011" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Spoorloos-2-284x300.png" alt="Spoorloos" width="284" height="300" /></a>kykNET-kykers weet teen hierdie tyd dat die drama-gleuf op ’n Dinsdagaand nooit teleurstel nie en met die nuwe reeks, <em>Spoorloos</em>, wat op 9 Oktober begin, gaan dit ook nie anders wees nie.</p>
<p>Die storie speel af in die dorpie Digtersdal in die Oos-Kaap. Dis ’n spookdorp op soek na genesing en herlewing, maar ná dertien jaar se onopgelosde raaisels, keer die reeksmoordenaar van destyds skielik terug. Om hom op te spoor, moet ’n speurder en joernalis al die ou wonde oopkrap. Terselfdertyd is daar ook drie kinders van die dorp wat die monster probeer vastrek en familie-intriges, soos net in ’n klein dorpie kan wees&#8230;</p>
<p>Die dorp Digtersdal in die Oos-Kaap, is dertien jaar vantevore deur ’n reeksmoordenaar geterroriseer ,wat seuns van 5 tot 15 jaar oud geteiken het. Die moorde het skielik opgehou, maar die moordenaar is nooit vasgetrek nie. Die dorp was geknak. Wonde het jare gevat om rowe te vorm en is nog lank nie genees nie. Werner Malan se planne vir die ontwikkeling van Digtersdal tot ’n vakansieparardys, het doodgeloop en hy het ‘n fortuin verloor. Die bouwerke vir ’n toeriste-oord wat met die Sonstad sou kompeteer, is gestop en die ingangspoort wat opgerig is, staan verbleik soos ’n reuse grafsteen, ter herhinnering aan die tragedie wat die dorp oorval het.</p>
<p>Nou, dertien jaar later, is die dorp onder Werner se stukrag vasberade om die spoke van die verlede te besweer. ’n Fees is in die lewe geroep – die Fakkelfees – waartydens besoekers aangemoedig gaan word om in die nuwe tyddeelontwikkeling te belê.</p>
<p>In die rolverdeling is ’n paar veteraan-spelers, asook nuwe gesigte. Die reeks is in Cradock in die Karoo geskiet en die dorp en sy mense dien as agtergrond vir dié nuwe reeks.</p>
<p>Deon Coetzee is te sien as Werner Malan, ’n sakeman, politikus en boer. Hy is getroud met Angelique, gespeel deur Catriona Andrew, wat uit ’n ryk Engelse familie kom. Hulle seun, Werner Jnr. wat almal Junior noem, vertolk deur Francois Jacobs, is getroud met Lara, Amalia Uys se karakter &#8211; ’n gekneusde engel wat op soek is na redding uit haar versmorende huwelik. Lara het ’n 12-jarige seun, Jan-Gustav, gespeel deur Neil Slabbert.</p>
<p>Ludwig Binge as Ian Vos, werk by ’n advertensie agentskap in die stad. Hy was 17 jaar oud toe sy broer, Benjamin, deur die reeksmoordenaar vermoor is. Sy ma, Frieda, vertolk deur Wilmien Rossouw, woon nog in Digtersdal.</p>
<p>Zane Meas as Adam Arendse, is ’n politieke leier en aktivis en is pa van Keagan, gespeel deur Charl Fleurs, ’n slim seun, hoewel hy effens van ’n bangbroek is.</p>
<p>Eric Bouwer as De Wet, is ’n speurder van Johannesburg en Sonja Landman, vertolk deur Kim Lategan, is ’n TV-joernalis wat groot drome het om ’n ondersoekende joernalis te word. Lieb Bester, as Gert Neethling ,is die dronklap van die dorp en sy vrou, Magda, gespeel deur Elsabé Daneel, is iemand wat wys wat onvoorwaardelike liefde beteken.</p>
<p>Kagiso Rathebe, as Sibusiso Jele, is De Wet se kollega en Lusanda Miya, vertolk deur Sibulele Gcilitshana, is kaptein. Deon Prinsloo is ’n siniese speurder by die plaaslike polisiestasie en word gespeel deur Ashley Taylor.</p>
<p>Ander karakters is Ds. Els, met Morné Visser, die maplotter en dwelmhandelaar Piet “Pille” Taljaart, met André Odendaal en sy dogter Esti, met vertolking deur Ineke van der Merwe. Verder sluit die rolverdeling in Hannes van Wyk as die waarnemende skoolhoof, Mnr. Immelman, Marie Fick, die bestuurder van die plaaslike koerant, met immergroen Liz Meiring, asook Fezile Grootboom, Werner se voorman, vertolk deur SK Sombokwe. Die reeks is gegrond op <em>Daddy Longlegs</em>, ’n boek deur die Suid-Afrikaanse skrywer Vernon Baumann.  Die draaiboek is deur Ilse van Hemert geskryf en sy was ook saam met André Odendaal die mede-regisseur.
