What's Coming Up In August 2019 On Discovery Channel Africa?

Gold Divers
From Monday 12 August at 20:00
For over a century, the shores and waterways of Nome, Alaska have been a beacon to hard-working dreamers looking to strike it rich. Fortunes have been won and lost for miners seeking the golden treasures of the Bering Sea. This season, as the new summer mining season begins, gold in Nome is drying up, pushing miners to extreme new locations in a desperate search for gold. Zeke heads miles off shore to Sledge Island while Shawn seeks to build his empire with a new claim at the Kellys' reputation that may sink them before the season starts. Plus, there's a new kid on the gold-mining block seeking his fortune on the Bering Sea floor - but will he maintain his beginner's optimism?

Undercover Billionaire
From Thursday 15 August at 20:00
Glenn Stearns is a self-made billionaire. He grew up poor in the remote outposts of Maryland and was just 14 years old when he became a father. A few years ago, he sold his company for $2.2 billion and he believes if he can do it, anyone can. Now, he's putting his belief to the test in a series that taps into his expertise to see if it's possible to create a million-dollar company in just 90 days, as he partners with a deserving candidate. But, there's a twist: the real identity of our mogul will remain anonymous to everyone around him. He'll be dropped off in a remote community with little resources and no contacts. The road to success is rarely an easy one - he will need to build connections, relationships and get a job that pays cash to build a company from scratch. If he's successful, at the end of the 90 days, he'll turn over the company he built to the people who helped him out along the way - and he'll reveal his identity to those around him.

From Thursday 29 August at 21:00
Legendary builder, problem-solver and maker, Adam Savage, is on a mission to challenge his skills and abilities as he undertakes his ultimate dream builds.

From pop culture to legend, folklore to little-known science fact, Adam obsessively engineers inventive builds to discover new information - and all with his signature showmanship. With Adam at the helm, engineering has never been so much fun!
