Get Ready To Dive Deep With Discovery Shark Week 2024 – Featuring South African Shark Experts!

The wait is over! Discovery Channel’s Shark Week, the longest-running and most anticipated TV event in history, returns to South Africa on Monday, 15 July, on Discovery Channel Africa (DStv channel 121). Hosted by the one and only John Cena, this year promises groundbreaking discoveries, thrilling encounters, and a spotlight on South Africa's very own shark experts.

 

Local Heroes Making Waves:

This Shark Week, we journey alongside South African heroes who are not just making waves, but also dedicating their lives to shark conservation and research, showcasing their unwavering dedication and inspiring commitment.

 

Join Zandile Ndhlovu, South Africa’s Black Mermaid in Monster Hammerheads: Species X, premiering Tuesday, 16 July at 18:10 CAT, as she dives with Dr Austin Gallagher in the Turks and Caicos, investigating a potentially new species of aggressive Hammerhead sharks. Zandile also joins Dr Gallagher’s team in Belly of the Beast: Bigger and Bloodier on Sunday, 21 July at 17:15 CAT where they study massive great whites in New Zealand.

"Joining Monster Hammerheads: Species X was an incredible opportunity to combine my passion for freediving and showcasing the beauty and diversity of sharks," says Zandile, South Africa’s first Black female freediving instructor and founder of the Black Mermaid Foundation. "I hope to inspire others, especially young girls from underrepresented communities, to connect with the ocean and become advocates for its protection."

 

In 6000-LB. Shark, premiering on Saturday, 20 July at 18:10 CAT, Leigh de Necker, Marine Biologist, teams up with Tom "The Blowfish" Hird to track down massive Great White Sharks off the coast of New Zealand, using cutting-edge science to weigh them and analyse their diet.

"Filming 6,000-LB Shark for Discovery Shark Week 2024 in New Zealand was truly one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life," says Leigh. "To witness these magnificent creatures in their element, surrounded by five, six, even seven at a time, was awe-inspiring. These weren't just any sharks; we're talking chunky animals between 3.5 and 5.5 meters in size! My marine biologist brain was in overdrive! Why were there so many sharks? Why were some so large? What were they feeding on? Could any be our South African sharks? This experience has deepened my fascination with these incredible creatures and fuelled my passion for their conservation."

 

Witness groundbreaking research in Great White Danger Zone on Monday, 15 July, at 17:15 CAT, as Dr Alison Towner, Shark Scientist, and her team investigate a new Great White hotspot off the South African coast, uncovering unusual behaviours in these apex predators.

"Southern African white sharks are currently a subject of intense mystery. Human activities and killer whale predation have drastically shifted their habitat use in this region. Great White Danger Zone investigates how white sharks are adapting to these changes at the southern tip of Africa,” commented Dr Alison. “It also provided an opportunity for me to collaborate again with Dr Oliver Jewell from the University of Western Australia, with whom I spent over 800 hours tracking white sharks around Gansbaai, in the Western Cape, in the decade before these ecological shifts occurred. This work underscores the urgent need for resources to support white shark research in this region, as these displacements redefine our global understanding of coastal ecosystems, particularly when apex predators vanish."

 

Celebrating 20 Years of Shark Conservation:

In 1991, South Africa became the first country to protect great white sharks. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Shark Spotters are a pioneering organisation dedicated to shark conservation, research, and education in South Africa. Their innovative and sustainable approach to reducing human-shark conflict has gained global attention and evolved to uncover key insights into the movements and behaviour of white sharks alongside researchers, including Dr Alison Towner.

 

“As Shark Spotters celebrates its twentieth year, we recognise the excitement and wonder that sharks inspire in people, especially during Discovery Channel's Shark Week," says Sarah Waries, CEO of Shark Spotters. "Our work aims to ensure the sustainable coexistence of people and sharks in our oceans, conserve these important animals, protect the marine environment, and create responsible ocean users. We look forward to sharing this with the world during Shark Week."

 

Don't Miss a Moment of the Action:

In addition to the programmes featuring local South African shark experts, the highly anticipated annual week-long celebration of sharks will include the next chapter of the hit show Belly of the Beast, which offers a fascinating look at a Great White shark feeding frenzy, and Deadliest Bite, which delves deep into how a shark’s jaws and teeth deliver lethal attacks! Shark Week starts Monday, 15 July, on Discovery Channel Africa (DStv channel 121).

Celebrate World Oceans Day with Discovery Channel’s Premiere of ‘X Trillion’

In honour of World Oceans Day on June 8th, Discovery Channel Africa is proud to present the premiere of X Trillion, a compelling documentary highlighting the urgent issue of plastic pollution in our oceans. This special screening will take place on Discovery Channel Africa on Saturday, 8 June, at 18:00 CAT.

 

X Trillion follows the extraordinary journey of eXXpedition’s all-women crew, led by the inspiring skipper and ocean advocate Emily Penn. The 14-member team, comprising scientists, sailors, designers, engineers, and teachers, embarks on a challenging 3,000-mile voyage across the North Pacific Ocean. Their mission is to conduct groundbreaking research on microplastics and bring attention to the pervasive plastic pollution crisis in one of the most remote regions on Earth.

 

The film captures the crew's month-long expedition, navigating through the planet's densest accumulation of ocean plastic. Facing high seas, storms, and sea sickness, these dedicated women leave their families and homes behind to confront one of our time's most pressing environmental challenges. Under Emily Penn’s leadership, the team explores the environmental and toxic chemical impacts of microplastics, including their potential effects on pregnancy and future generations.

 

Celebrate World Oceans Day by exploring the unseen impacts of microplastics and the incredible efforts of these women to protect our oceans for future generations.

Reminder: Discovery Cameras Venture Into Controversial Off-Grid Community For New Series The Garden: Commune Or Cult Premiering in Africa On Wednesday, 22 November At 20:00 CAT

An infamous off-grid community that went viral on social media for disturbing allegations is now the subject of a six-part limited series, THE GARDEN: COMMUNE OR CULT, arriving on Wednesday, 22 November at 20:00 CAT on Discovery Channel.

 

On 22 acres of backcountry land in the American South lies The Garden – a community that lives by its own laws, free from the pressures of modern society. They maintain an open-door policy to anyone seeking to join their ranks, but new people must submit to an initiation period. Some barely last a week, others are forced to leave, and a chosen few will call The Garden home for good. Questions continue to arise about the cult-like vibes of the controversial community, but this spring is different. Cameras have been granted unprecedented access to The Garden, documenting its spread to new locations deep in the Ozarks.

 

Founded as a cooperative, ‘leaderless’ community, The Garden could be viewed as a post-apocalyptic wonderland free of societal rules. However, when potential members arrive, they quickly realize there’s more than meets the eye. New initiates include Tyler, a veteran and self-described doomsday prepper; Tisheila, a truck driver survivalist; ‘Oak’, who wants to toughen up after years behind a desk; and Jessica, a former cheerleader looking to reconnect with nature. 



These newcomers have ten days to prove to The Garden that they have what it takes to be part of the community. Did they join a commune working towards a sustainable, off-grid way of life? Or have they just surrounded themselves with members of a mind-controlling cult?

 

Produced for Warner Bros. Discovery by Hot Snakes, The Garden: Commune or Cult airs on Discovery Channel from Friday, 22 November up to Monday, 25 December 2023.

Development Alert: StarTimes To Add Discovery Channel As A New Channel On The Platform, TLC And Investigation Discovery Relaunch On The Platform

After TNT was ripped away from StarTimes and StarSat customers across Africa in September, Warner Bros. Discovery and the pay-tv operator seem to a struck a new deal which would reinstate Investigation Discovery and also lead the additions of Discovery Channel and TLC.

Taking to account only Discovery Channel is the new addition while the latter Investigation Discovery and TLC had already been on the platform.

Discovery Channel is considered the male counterpart of TLC which pivots towards motors, speculative investigation and even wildlife. It features shows like Deadliest Catch, Shark Week, Naked And Afraid, Gold Rush, Mythbusters and Wheeler Dealers.

This is not only the male counterpart of TLC but the premium outtake of Discovery Family. Consumers are getting back the shows that were ripped away from them in 2021.

Investigation Discovery (ID) is a factual entertainment channel comprises of Hollywood crimes, murder and forensic investigation. It features shows like Evil Lives Here, Til Death Do Us Part, Homicide Hunters and People's Magazine Investigation.

This channel was ripped away in 2021 after Warner Bros. Discovery and StarTimes couldn't come to an agreement. Since then, the channel was supplemented with CBS Justice in a joint venture with Paramount Global and AMC International.

TLC is a female skewed channel which pivots their content to reality television focusing on lifestyle and personal stories. Some of the content to have aired include Sister Wives, 90 Day Fiance, 1000-lb Sisters, Doubling Down with the Derricos and My Big Fat Fabulous Life.

Interesting enough, the channel is being reinstated on the platform after the pay-tv platform lost rights to DStv due to Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). Similar to Discovery Channel, consumers would be getting to see select shows from Real Time with the help of Investigation Discovery.

Which begs the question, how long will these channels stick around cause every year it's the same runaround with StarTimes one minute it's there next minute is gone, whose to say that CBS Reality and CBS Justice won't just get booted from these platforms.

These 3 channels are said to reside on the Smart package from 3 November and onwards: TLC Ch:165, ID Ch:223 and Discovery channel Ch: 224.
