SABC1 has announced a new weekly family reality show called Khumbul'ekhaya, which will premiere on the channel on Tuesday 28 November.
Produced by Urban Brew, the series "tracks the journeys of real South Africans who ask Khumbul'ekhaya for help in their search to heal their relationships with lost or estranged family members.
"The Khumbul'ekhaya team helps real people put the pieces of their family lives back together again."
Khumbul'ekhaya is also billed as educational - each show consists of two stories which hope to get viewers reflecting on their own family relationships and being moved to implement positive change in their own home.
Presenter Andile Carelse (who was raped by her father at age 11 and who thus has plenty of perspective on what it takes to heal family relationships) reflects on the experiences of the story characters.
The aim of Khumbul'ekhaya is to show how through reconciliation and forgiveness we can heal broken relationships in our families.
Khumbul'ekhaya premieres on SABC1 on Tuesday 28 November, at 21h00.
