Candice Modiselle, host of the red carpet show.
As you probably know, the 5th Royalty Soapie Awards happened two weeks ago already and should have aired live on TV for the reasons we mentioned
just after the ceremony.
But we won't go on about that now. It's a new month, summer's on the way and we don't want to be whiney.
We'd rather remind you that the ceremony airs on SABC1 this Saturday 2 October at 20h00, starting with a red carpet build-up at 19h30 - both two weeks after the actual event.
Oh? Did we mention it again? Oops.
The red carpet is literally the first proper local red carpet we've had in years so we thought you'd enjoy pouring over these snapshots as a warm-up:
(Warning: there is news of some winners with the pics so please don't read on if you don't want to know any of the winners - rather return after the show):
