New Television Series

[Andre Laas]

A new television series, Shoreline, starts on Monday 13 July at 19.30, temporarily replacing 50/50 on SABC 2. This 13-part series (14 if one includes a last episode of behind-the-scenes footage) covers the archaeology, history and marine biology stories of the 3000 km long South African coastline, from the Orange River to Kosi Bay. The series uses an anchor presenter, actor Peter Butler, and three specialist presenters: Eleanor Yeld (marine biology), Nomalanga Mkhize (history) and Gavin Whitelaw (archaeology). The presenters visit various shoreline sites, talk about them and interview local experts. The film footage is stunning, shot in HD, the sound quality is extraordinary, the pace is energetic and the direction brilliant. Welcome to Shoreline
