Fellow Travelers

Channel: M-Net (DStv 101)
TX Time: 22h15
Genre: Drama, Thriller, Period Drama

Fellow Travelers

Fellow Travelers is an epic love story and political thriller, chronicling the clandestine romance of two very different men who meet in McCarthy-era Washington.

Matt Bomer plays charismatic Hawkins Fuller, who maintains a financially rewarding, behind-the scenes career in politics.

Hawkins avoids emotional entanglements - until he meets Tim Laughlin (Jonathan Bailey), a young man brimming with idealism and religious faith.

They begin a romance just as Joseph McCarthy and Roy Cohn declare war on "subversives and sexual deviants," initiating one of the darkest periods in 20th-century American history.

Over the course of four decades, we follow five main characters - Hawk, Tim, Marcus, Lucy and Frankie - as they cross paths through the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s, the drug-fueled disco hedonism of the 1970s and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s, while facing obstacles in the world and in themselves.

In the series premiere, "You're Wonderful": In 1950's Washington, Hawkins Fuller is at the State Department, enjoying clandestine sex with men and avoiding entanglements.

Everything changes when Hawk begins an affair with Tim Laughlin.
 

The Brokenwood Mysteries 2

Channel: BBC Brit (DStv 120)
TX Time: 20h00
Genre: Police Procedural, Drama, Mystery

The Brokenwood Mysteries 2

The Brokenwood Mysteries comprises two-hour murder mystery stories set in a seemingly quiet country town where the town's newest resident, Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Shepherd, finds that murder lurks in even the most homely location.

Each telefeature in the series is a standalone story which sees the show's two lead police officers trying to solve a murder case.

In the Season 2 premiere, "Leather & Lace": The Brokenwood Cheetahs are a local rugby team of legendary status.

Their losing streak of 50 straight games has broken national records.

So when their hapless coach, Arnie Langstone, is found dead - stripped naked and strapped to a goalpost - some think it might be blessing in disguise – perhaps now they might start winning again.

But amidst this DSS Mike Shepherd is perplexed by several other issues.

Firstly, why was a pair of women's underwear stuffed down Arnie's throat? And what do the neatly embroidered initials 'G.G.' signify?

But then a second body is discovered and Mike and his team are stretched to the limit.

Is this the work of a serial killer or merely a puzzling coincidence?
 

Property Brothers: Forever Home 3

Channel: The Home Channel (DStv 176)
TX Time: 17h00
Genre: Reality Makeover, Home Improvement

Property Brothers: Forever Home 3

Drew and Jonathan Scott are on a mission to help couples transform their current houses into forever homes — a place where they can put down roots and happily spend the rest of their lives.

The homeowners aren't looking to flip properties or make a quick buck, they know their house is "the one" and have plans to grow old together.

But before that can happen, they need Drew and Jonathan to unlock its full potential.

First, Drew takes the homeowners on a tour of nearby renovated homes to learn about the features they can and can't live without.

Then, Jonathan presents two design options that showcase different ways their house can be reimagined.

Stakes are high and the pressure is on as the brothers tackle a full-scale renovation, with design and demo hurdles along the way, to turn these houses into their forever homes.

In the Season 3 premiere, "New Lives, New Home": A couple that took a step back from busy careers to focus on their kids dreams of a layout that works for their family.

Drew and Jonathan open up their floor plan to create a kitchen and living room that match the family's needs.
