Some shows give me goosebumps from pure enjoyment, while others make my skin crawl with (I’m going to be honest) revulsion.

But I have to cringe and squint when I channel hop and accidentally find Dr Pimple Popper: Poppy Bowl on TV. But it’s super popular with our readers. Can anyone please explain to me why? Why do people watch it? Is it because it’s relatable? I would love to understand. I could barely read our sidebar on p47 about all the popping. Jig! PS: I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read Isidingo’s preview and found out that Hendrik, played by Gérard Rudolf, dies in…

When Ewan Strydom left Expresso recently, they didn’t replace him. Why don’t they need a new presenter now? – ANDREW, VIA FACEBOOK The decision is fairly easy for breakfast shows like Expresso (2010-current), says content producer Dumisa Lengwati. “Our presenter team was six when Ewan was here. We still have five fantastic presenters on the team with us and the show will continue with them.” Because the presenters share their duties and their segments aren’t specialised, for example like reporting weather where a background in meteorology and geography would be needed, a replacement wouldn’t be critical for the show to continue. On a programme like Carte Blanche (1988-current, see more on p5), where there are two presenters in the studio when it’s broadcast, they would need to bring in a…
