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.

Savage Builds
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. This science adventure series follows Adam into an unpredictable world as he takes on the most absurd, original challenges only he could dream up. Along the way, he enlists the help of some of his favourite people on the planet - distinguished friends and colleagues - master innovators, unconventional thinkers and talented builders he's long admired and always wanted to work with. 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!

From Thursday 8 August at 21:00
What happens before the 90 days, when couples who have an existing online relationship meet in person for the very first time? This fascinating series follows love-struck Americans who feel they have met their potential soulmates online, as they prepare to travel internationally to meet them in person and see if true love will blossom in real life. Some of these couples are wildly different both physically and in their personalities. But, can they celebrate their differences, or will they put a wall between them even greater than the language barrier?

The Family Chantel
From Tuesday 20 August at 21:00
This explosive series follows one of the biggest couples from the 90 Day Fiance franchise, Chantel and Pedro - and their lively in-laws. Chantel first introduced Dominican, Pedro, to her family under the false pretence of him coming to America on a student visa; since then they have weathered major marital ups and downs involving everything from feisty family members to their own trust issues. Can this unique modern family move past their differences and come together in peace and harmony? Or will Chantel's parents Karen and Thomas push their children too far as they try to protect their brood?

Bake You Rich
From Saturday 17 August at 20:00
Buddy Valstro is one of America's most renowned bakers and now he's offering professional bakers a chance to have their unique and delicious creations sold at his shop. Each episode in this delectable series follows four aspiring pastry chefs compete in the factory kitchen, where they are tested on their delicious food and valuable business skills. It gets even hotter in the kitchen as the bakers strive to impress Buddy and his trusty panel of rotating judges including Chad Durkin, Erin McGinn, Vincent Tubito and Buddy's wife, Lisa Valastro.

False Flag S2 And Legion S3 Debuts In July 2019 On FOX Africa

FALSE FLAG (KFULIM) S2 (10 x 60’)
Wednesdays at 20:45, From 4 July (ends 11 September)

In season two, an explosion during an inauguration ceremony for the first oil pipeline connecting Israel to Turkey is immediately labelled as a deadly terrorist attack by the media. Three citizens were all present at the inauguration - but all three disappeared around the time of the blast, which killed several government officials. When their names are released as key suspects, those closest to them are thrown into the eye of the storm. The investigation and media attention turns their lives upside down and, as suspected connections and surprising alliances begin to emerge, their initial surprise makes way for mistrust - with no assurance that solving the mystery will put things back the way they were.

Packed with nail biting intrigue and explosive twists, False Flag immerses viewers in a rollercoaster ride of suspicion and deception, as each character is forced to question everything that was once so familiar. Caught in a web of secrets and lies, only one thing is known for certain - that nothing will ever be the same again.

GREYS ANATOMY S15
Tuesdays at 20:45, From 4 June (ends 9 November)

Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital — the toughest surgical residency program west of Harvard was a brutal training ground but now the former students have interns of their own to mentor. The doctors deal with life-or-death consequences on a daily basis — it’s in one another that they find comfort and friendship.

This season will see Meredith go through a personal arc that involves her family background. Meredith is going through a new trajectory that is focussed on who she is as a single mother and surgeon, including her investigation into a medical condition that is very close to her own family background and history.

DEEP STATE 2

The gripping and prescient espionage drama is back with some exciting new cast joining returning favourites in a fresh and riveting storyline.

Three US special forces are killed in an ambush in Mali. The US are supposedly there to support the Malians in their fight against terrorism. However, all is not as it seems. As the story progresses, we realise that their activity is underpinned by the deep state and forms part of a cover for a new gold rush - the goal to beat China in the race fora African natural resources - oil, gas, ore and minerals. It is the first dirty war for clean energy.
