Lights, camera, action! TV screens all over Africa will never be the same again as Turner ushers in a new era. African audiences can prepare themselves to re-imagine TV through TNT, a young, fresh and entertainment-filled offering for the entire family. On 21 September, TNT Africa will reveal its slick new look which promises to be an immersive experience, providing creative and relevant programming specially tailored for African fans.  TNT Africa is the culmination of TCM’s move to refresh its brand image and adapt its brand positioning; the channel moved away from its former global positioning in favour of a more bold and appealing positioning of the ‘American blockbuster channel’. “The TCM brand has had a strong classic association which doesn’t reflect the actual brand proposition, or deliver the right message, to our African audiences.

Made By Destruction From Wednesday 24 October at 18:30 Some everyday items that are thrown into the trash without a second thought have the potential for a brand new life, as they are destroyed and transformed by incredible technology to be reborn into modern marvels. But just how are recoverable and recyclable materials from discarded objects retrieved and reused? This informative series follows the life cycle of materials as they are stripped apart and reborn as new and wildly different tools. Train tracks go back on the rails as a luxury car; detergent jugs are reborn as a durable parking pad; aluminium ladders melt down into parts for oil tankers; and wax cardboard boxes shred into fire logs. These are some of the items that undergo an extraordinary transformation. Once these objects have been destroyed, the programme follows their journey across the world to their final destination - and the factory where it all gets put back together again into a different product.
