The Catch

Genre: Dating Game Show, Reality

The Catch

Eight single women are on a mission to find a suitor.

But there's a twist: among them are six sneaky impostors posing as eligible bachelors, ready to break hearts and steal the prize.

These devious players, unknown to the rest of the group, will stop at nothing to sabotage the search for true love and pocket the cash for themselves.

In this high-stakes reality game, trust isn't just important - it's everything.

Only one lucky lady will walk away with both the man of her dreams and a sweet cash prize, but to claim victory, she will have to outsmart everyone else in the game.

Tensions will run high as couples vote each other out, fighting tooth and nail to stay in the game.

If a lady reaches the finale with her real suitor, she will score both his heart and the grand prize.

But, the one who ends up with an imposter will have been played and will lose it all to him.

It's all about romance, lies and mind games where love may not be the only thing worth fighting for.

Ramses The Great: King of Ancient Egypt

Channel: HISTORY (DStv 186)
TX Time: 20h15
Genre: Documentary Series, History, Docu-Drama

Ramses The Great: King of Ancient Egypt

Featuring cutting-edge science and unique access to the latest archaeological discoveries, Ramses the Great: King of Ancient Egypt exposes the man behind the myth.

It also reveals how — for the past few thousand years — this mighty ruler has remained a caricature of his own propaganda.

The pharaoh's remarkable destiny unfolds in six episodes that bring his astounding 67-year-rule to life — a legendary reign during which he turned a fallen empire into one of the most powerful realms of all time.

It's an immersive journey that features CGI reconstructions, jaw-dropping footage and commentary from passionate experts who bring ancient Egypt to life like never before, and who reveal Ramesses' darkest secrets and lies along the way.

In the series premiere, "Birth of a Dynasty": In 1323 BCE, Egypt was plunged into chaos following Akhenaten's attempted revolution.

Paramessou, who had proven himself in the military field, succeeded Horemheb and the Ramesside dynasty was poised to rule.
 

North West Killer

Channel: eExtra (Openview 105 / StarSat 489 / DStv 195)
TX Time: 20h30
Genre: True Crime, Documentary

North West Killer

This is the story of one of the worst ever killing sprees in South Africa.

Several bodies have been discovered within a small area.

There seem to be similarities between victims - couples out at night have been kidnapped, raped and then shot.

When a taxi driver is arrested and a gun found in his possession which matches the bullets on crime scene, he is sentenced for murder.

But what would drive someone to commit a crime like this?
 

Thinah singoZungu

Channel: Mzansi Magic (DStv 161)
TX Time: 19h00
Genre: Docu-Reality, Music, Religion

Thinah singoZungu

An exclusive glimpse into the lives of the Zungu family, gospel royalty from KwaZulu-Natal.

This is a family that juggles faith, fame and fortune while living under the intense scrutiny of the Christian community.

As the family faces the challenge of being held to a higher moral standard, they are simply trying to raise their children and pursue their dreams.

Set against the stunning backdrops of iTheku (Durban), eNanda and Umhlanga, Thinah singoZungu paints a picture of the family's contrasting worlds - from township pride to suburban luxury.

At the heart of the show is Thinah Zungu, a pastor with deep Christian values, who embraces a flashy lifestyle that some may consider contradictory.

Having risen from a shack to a mansion, Thinah believes he has earned his luxurious life, complete with designer clothes and a high-profile social circle.

But with wealth and fame come criticism and Thinah is not afraid to defy the norms.

Behind the scenes Thinah's wife who is also a pastor, Zama (also known as uMaMtshali or Landlord) is stepping into her role as a pastor but is fiercely protective of the family she runs like a lioness.

With three children to raise - Ndumiso, Smanga and Olwethu - each child is on their own journey of self-discovery.

The eldest, Ndumiso, is already the family breadwinner, a weight his siblings struggle to understand as they fight to create their own identities beyond the confines of their parents' religious expectations.

The show explores universal themes of family vs fame, humility vs success and the price of chasing dreams.

It pulls the curtain on the Zungu family's journey where each step towards greatness comes with its own cost.
