On the United States side, Customs and Border Protection officers have the job of keeping goods and people flowing in both directions while making sure that guns, drugs and other contraband don’t make it across the border. The challenge is daunting: on one side is the ruthlessly-efficient Mexican drug cartels; on the other, the biggest – and most lucrative - drug market on earth. Borderforce USA: The Bridges follows CBP officers stationed at 12 of the 28 international bridges that straddle the border and documents the immense challenges that the officers face on a daily basis.

He led police on a dangerous chase through the backstreets until he crashed his car into a dead end street and fled, climbing over back fences and running through yards.

SABC 1 Will Start Airing Reruns Of The Estate Following The Soaps Terrible Performance On SABC 3


Thanks to TVSA, we got confirmation that SABC 3's local soap opera, The Estate will start from scratch on SABC 1 from Monday 6 September at 19:30.

This comes as the show's viewership continues to plummet following the success of e.tv's new soap, House Of Zwide last month.

SABC 3 has been struggling to pull in viewers for over a decade and it looks like the SABC is starting to catch a wake-up.

Many parties purpose that they turn SABC 3 into another Encore channel with content moving between SABC 1 and 2 or close it off the channel now that they're planning to launch more channels but that ain't happening anytime soon or at least for now.

The Estate seems like a very promising successor to Isidingo but the problem here was the station. Like TVSA said, it should have never aired there in the first place now you see the consequences of SABC's actions.

"Producing a daily local show takes huge amounts of money so it needs to be on a channel with a consistent and higher viewership to pay the bills.", says TVSA.

That's why The Estate is starting from scratch on SABC 1 with new episodes continuing on SABC 3.

TVSA does give a lot of good and similar suggestions for the SABC:

1. SABC1 needs the content. As many of us have expressed before, the current SABC set-up doesn't make sense because there are three channels, there's not enough new content for all of them and S3 and SABC2 are constantly being hijacked for sport. It would make things so much simpler and more financially viable if S3 became the sports channel with a distribution of its content between SABC 1 and 2.

2. A reinvented Expresso could move to 1, Afternoon Express and the wildlife shows could move to 2 and the internationals would be later at night on either.

PENGUINS ON SAFARI

Cape Town definitely has no shortage of amazing beaches, but Boulders Beach in False Bay offers something extra special – a colony of African Penguins in their smart dresses, waddling glory, right under your nose. Infact, it’s the only place in the world where you can get close to African Penguins.
Often called the Jackass Penguin, these flightless birds create hours of entertainment for the tourists who travel to see them. WildEarth has expanded its LIVE locations to Cape Town and from September these penguins will feature daily in our LIVE shows.
This is the same group of penguins that recently featured in the netflix series Penguin Town and if that is anything to go by then this promises to be a fantastic new addition to the daily LIVE safaris.

THE BIRMINGHAM PRIDE IN PURSUIT OF PREY

The Birmingham Pride of Lion who reside on Ngala Private Game Reserve are well known for the fact that two of them are white. ThisPride has featured on WildEarth very regularly for the past year and we have watched as new cubs have arrived and various males have come and gone.
As we get to the end of winter here in South Africa the land is incredibly dry. With no rain since April, the animals are becoming increasingly desperate. Water sources are slowly depleting and animal movements are very much based on the availability of water.
The Birmingham Pride are dominating central Ngala. They are focussing their movements around the central waterholes in their pursuit for prey. Unfortunately for the herbivores, they have to drink daily which means they run the gauntlet of the Birmingham Pride who lie in wait.

SEA FOREST

WildEarth has launched a brand new LIVE show from the depths of the South African Kelp Forest from the same place that the award winning documentary My Octopus Teacher was filmed.
Freediving is an entirely different way to experience the underwater world. Gliding through the water silently allows you to reconnect with nature and explore the ocean with minimal impact. Freedivers explore the underwater forest LIVE from Cape Town daily while a land based expert explains what we are seeing.
Magical encounters with shy marine life, fish munching on coral and tide pulsing at the rocks bring a window of calm into an otherwise chaotic world.
