Lights Out For FashionTV

Cape Town – DStv is folding up the runway and packing away the Swarovski crystals with FashionTV (DStv 178) that’s going dark on MultiChoice’s satellite pay-TV platform at the end of this month. FashionTV’s demise on DStv comes after more than a decade and some years – a lifetime in the modelling world – since the 18 year old channel started by Michel Adam first dazzled South African viewers with its unending stream of fashion shows, “midnight haute”, couture collections and fashion weeks coverage. Sadly in television, not even diamonds last forever, with the diamond logo’ed channel that calls itself “the biggest fashion medium in the world” that will go dark on 28 February. Asked why FashionTV is being discontinued and if the channel will be replaced by another similar type channel, MultiChoice tells Channel24: "FashionTV will be replaced by another channel - we will make the relevant announcements soon".

TBN will launch on DStv channel 343 on Friday 4 March 2016 to DStv Premium, DStv Extra, DStv Compact, DStv Family, DStv Access and DStv EasyView customers in South Africa and Lesotho. It will also launch to the rest of Africa via DStv’s Africa service soon after the March launch. Viewers will get to see the very best in local and international faith and family programmes, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Trinity Broadcasting Networks (TBN) and Rhema have entered into a relationship agreement that sees TBN take over the current Rhema TV-channel position on DStv. This is due to a shared vision to see every heart and life transformed and impacted through the power of the gospel, and also to see a significant rise in quality of Christian television for Africa. The existing programmes broadcasting on Rhema TV will move across to TBN’s channel. Matthew Crouch, Chairman of Trinity Broadcasting Networks International said: "TBN has always been part of the Christian fabric of Africa a
