Ed’s letter

My, oh my! If you don’t find something riveting in this issue of tvplus, we definitely did something wrong! When we liaise with the soaps about the stories that will be featured, they (usually) give us screengrabs from a specific episode to use to underpin and strengthen the story.

This issue I couldn’t stop staring at the heartwrenching pictures of Thenji (Nonkululeko Mbataha) in The Black Door (p21). What she has gone through is such a sad reality of the times that we live in, and here a photo speaks a thousand words. Her anguish is tangible. And Nonkululeko tells us how deep she dug to do justice to this storyline. In all of the soaps, there seems to be only trouble and heartache, so if you need a break, tune into the refreshing Head High (p12) starting on SABC3. There’s something undeniable about sport and that spirit that is uplifting in our world.

Thenji’s emotion is felt through the screen on The Black Door.
