Attenborough's Global Adventure Season 1

Retirement who? When he hit his mid-80s, everyone’s favourite nature presenter Sir David Attenborough set off on a seven-year globetrotting mission to revisit iconic locations that he’d filmed in the past, to reveal the state that they’re in now, and to capture exciting new animal behaviour using the latest technology. From state-of-the-art deep-ocean exploration, to the Great Barrier Reef, to the rainforests of Borneo, this is our world through his lens.

Attenborough’s Global Adventure Season 1 from Sunday, 11 September at 16:30 on BBC Earth (DStv Channel 184)

Naked And Afraid XL: Frozen Season 8

For the first time ever, Naked And Afraid is leaving behind desert sunburn and chafing sand, and moist, parasite filled jungles, to dump four teams of three fan-favourite survivalists each in Montana’s icy wilderness for 14 days. They’ll be stranded with no shoes, no clothes, no food, and no water. They only select primitive tools and a bare minimum of raw materials that they need to survive. As they make their way, some dangerous animals will be coming out of hibernation around them…

Watch Naked And Afraid XL: Frozen Season 8 from Wednesday, 28 September at 20:00 on Discovery Channel (DStv Channel 121)

Evil Season 3

Last season ended with forensic psychologist Kristen and wanna-be priest David kissing, just after she admitted to him that she murdered Orson LeRoux. A forked tongue hints that either David is seeing things, or Kristen really is demon possessed now. The is-she-or-isn’t she question becomes this season’s big mystery, so we’ll be watching closely…and so will Kristen’s nemesis, demon lawyer Leland Thompson.

Young Rock Season 2

We’re splitting our time several ways this season. In 2032, Dwayne is running to be President of the United States. In 1996, Dwayne is battling to make his name in Canadian Football, until a series of injuries forces him to change his path and he takes his first steps into the ring at the WWF. In 1987, Dwyane is in Nashville as a teenager. Back in 1984, little “Dewey” battles to catch his sports hero dad Rocky’s attention. Meanwhile, the Johnsons’ marriage hits a rough patch and Rocky starts to feel overshadowed by Dwayne’s mom Ata.

The First Lady Season 1

Go inside the White House to uncover how each administration’s First Lady has shaped policy, while the series explores her personal journey during her husband’s campaign trail. This season focuses mainly on 2009-2017’s Michelle Obama (Viola Davis) and her poise in the face of outraged racism and hate. 1974-1977’s Betty Ford (Michelle Pfeiffer) and her openness about addiction and cancer is explored, and you get a look into 1933-1945’s Eleanor Roosevelt’s (Gillian Anderson) calm refusal to bow to the sexist limitations placed on her.
