Queen's legendary lead singer Freddie Mercury earned a place in modern rock history as the writer and singer of some of its most legendary songs: Bohemian Rhapsody, Killer Queen, We Are the Champions, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love.
Born in Zanzibar to Indian parents and later raised in India, Mercury and his Queen bandmates went on to sell albums in unit totals that rival the Beatles.
His remarkable four octave singing range was a key ingredient in the band's success.
Mercury famously died of AIDS in late 1991, less than 24 hours after a public admission he had contracted the disease.
Vallei van Sluiers 2
Channel: eExtra (Openview 105 / DStv 195 / StarSat 489)
TX Time: 19h00
Genre: Drama, Afrikaans
The first season finished on a suspenseful note with the nightmare scene at the pit, where Hugo and Beulah floated in the water.
Three shots were discharged from Hannah, JP and Bertito's firearms. All three had more than enough reason to get Hugo out of the way. Hugo was hit and lost consciousness due to his bleeding, as Con desperately sought help at the hospital.
But no one wanted to help...
The second season begins seven months after the shooting incident at the pit. Many questions are answered by flashbacks.
But when the season starts it is winter in the Ceres Valley, with snow that creates a fairytale landscape low on the slopes of the mountains.
In the meantime, many changes have taken place in the lives of the people of the Valley. Most importantly, Hannah's decision to re-establish veterinary practice. She advertises for a veterinarian and eventually gets a response from someone who arrives for an interview.
De Wet Enslin, however, is a strange man and not easy to measure.
